× I'm a really fascinating about the design and the varieties of shoes because, umm, before I used to wear the flat sandals or the silvers, you can call it.
✓ I'm really fascinated by the design and variety of shoes because before I used to wear flat sandals or silver ones.
The student used 'fascinating' (an adjective describing something that causes fascination) instead of 'fascinated' (an adjective describing a person's feeling). Use 'fascinated by' to show what interests you. Also 'the varieties' is better as 'variety' for a general sense, and 'the silvers' is an incorrect noun phrase; 'silver ones' correctly refers to silver shoes. Suggestions: use participial adjective 'fascinated', pair with preposition 'by', and use 'variety' for general countable concept or 'varieties' with 'of' plus plural nouns; say 'silver ones' for shorthand reference.
× But umm, nowadays, because of its comfort and the convenience, I like shoes and.
✓ But nowadays I like shoes because of their comfort and convenience.
The original has awkward structure and wrong pronoun 'its' referring to shoes (plural) and an incomplete ending. Use present simple 'I like' for habitual preference. Use plural possessive 'their' to refer to 'shoes'. Remove the trailing 'and'. Suggestion: keep subject-verb clarity and correct pronoun agreement.
× No, I haven't bought any shoes online and because of the size, uh, and the style, because nowadays there is a scam or fraud and going on in online and then I'm because I like to try it first and, and do, uh, shopping physically.
✓ No, I haven't bought any shoes online because of sizing and style issues, and because there is online fraud nowadays; I prefer to try shoes on first and shop in person.
Sentence contains multiple issues: redundancy and wrong prepositions ('in online' should be 'online'), awkward clause order, and incorrect phrasing 'I'm because I like'. The present perfect 'I haven't bought' is fine. Fix preposition use by using 'online' as an adverb, and use noun phrases 'sizing and style issues.' Use 'try shoes on' for correct verb phrase and 'shop in person' for physical shopping. Suggestions: simplify clauses, use correct prepositions, and keep logical clause order.
× I actually depends on the for what kind of occasion I'm buying the shoes.
✓ It actually depends on what kind of occasion I'm buying the shoes for.
Original has incorrect verb form 'depends' with wrong subject 'I'. The impersonal 'It depends on' is appropriate, so use 'It depends on'. Also word order 'on the for what' is incorrect; place 'for' at the end or restructure as shown. Suggestion: use 'It depends on' for general statements and correct prepositional placement.
× If it's for just a casual thing because I like the design and and their style, I'm spending less.
✓ If it's just for a casual occasion and I like the design and style, I spend less.
Use 'occasion' rather than 'thing' for formality and clarity. Present simple 'I spend less' is better for habitual actions rather than 'I'm spending less' which implies ongoing action. Remove duplicate 'and'. 'Their style' is vague; 'the design and style' is clearer. Suggestion: use concise nouns and simple present for habitual spending.
× But it if it is for the special occasion I definitely spend a lot a bit more.
✓ But if it is for a special occasion, I definitely spend a bit more.
Original has duplicated words 'But it if' and awkward phrasing 'a lot a bit more.' Use 'a bit more' or 'a lot more' but not both. Use commas for clarity. Suggestion: remove duplicates and choose one quantifier.
× I definitely go go with the comfortable shoes because, uh, fastens can come and go because it's just like a season, but the comfort it's, it's the necessity for your health and uh, so I definitely go with the confessors.
✓ I definitely go with comfortable shoes because fashions come and go with the seasons, but comfort is necessary for your health, so I definitely choose comfort.
Multiple errors: duplicated 'go go', 'fastens' is likely 'fashions' (spelling), 'it's, it's the necessity' is ungrammatical—use 'comfort is necessary'. 'Confessors' is incorrect word (likely 'comfort' or 'comfortable ones'); I rephrased to 'choose comfort.' Use plural 'fashions' and correct 'seasons'. Suggestions: avoid repetition, choose correct vocabulary ('fashions', 'choose comfort'), and use clear subject-verb structure 'comfort is necessary'.
