× Personally I don't like saying because I'm not really confident about my thing ability and it also I think is it is really hard to study a new hobby.
✓ Personally I don't like singing because I'm not really confident about my singing ability and I also think it is really hard to learn a new hobby.
The verb 'like' should be followed by the gerund form 'singing' instead of 'saying'. Also, 'thing ability' is incorrect; it should be 'singing ability'. The phrase 'study a new hobby' is unnatural; 'learn a new hobby' is more appropriate. The sentence structure was also improved for clarity.
× Yes I do. I have joined a singing class. And I'm participate in my local singing competitions.
✓ Yes, I have. I have joined a singing class and I participate in my local singing competitions.
The response to 'Have you ever learnt how to sing?' should be in present perfect tense ('I have') rather than 'I do'. 'I'm participate' is incorrect; it should be 'I participate' to match the present simple tense for habitual actions. Also, joining two sentences with 'and' improves flow.
× Yes, I do think so, because like when I listen to some music I can fill with it, it can affect my mood or whatever, sadness or hapiness. Yeah. So I do think that it can affect other peoples.
✓ Yes, I do think so, because when I listen to some music I can feel it; it can affect my mood, whether sadness or happiness. So I do think that it can affect other people.
The phrase 'I can fill with it' is incorrect; it should be 'I can feel it'. 'Whatever' is informal and unclear here; 'whether' is more appropriate to introduce alternatives. 'Hapiness' is a spelling error; correct spelling is 'happiness'. 'Other peoples' is incorrect; 'people' is already plural and does not take an 's'.
