× I really enjoy reading books because it's helped me broaden my knowledge and learn new things.
✓ I really enjoy reading books because it helps me broaden my knowledge and learn new things.
The sentence mixes present simple ('enjoy') with present perfect ('has helped') incorrectly. Use present simple 'helps' to match the general truth/habit expressed by 'I really enjoy'. Suggestion: keep verb tenses consistent by using present simple for habitual or general statements.
× I also really love watching movies and listening to K pop music to recharge my battery and unwind.
✓ I also really love watching movies and listening to K-pop music to recharge my batteries and unwind.
Use 'K-pop' with a hyphen as the standard form and plural 'batteries' is the common idiom 'recharge my batteries'. Also 'K-pop' is a proper noun style. Suggestion: use established forms and idiomatic expressions.
× When I was a child, I really enjoy watching cartoons on my television.
✓ When I was a child, I really enjoyed watching cartoons on my television.
The time marker 'When I was a child' requires past tense. 'Enjoy' should be past 'enjoyed' to agree with the past time reference. Suggestion:match verb tense to time expressions.
× I especially like Barbie show, uh, because I love the colorful stories and, uh, attractive character and I used to watch them almost every weekend.
✓ I especially liked the Barbie show because I loved the colorful stories and the attractive characters, and I used to watch it almost every weekend.
Multiple issues: past time frame requires past verbs ('liked', 'loved'). Use the definite article 'the Barbie show'. 'Character' should be plural 'characters' if referring to multiple, and 'show' is singular so 'it' not 'them'. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and match pronouns and number to their antecedents.
× I had enjoy cycling scenery with a gile and I stir right regularly.
✓ I have enjoyed cycling through scenic areas with a guide and I still ride regularly.
Original has wrong verb forms and misspellings. Use present perfect 'have enjoyed' for a hobby continuing from past to present or simple past if entirely past. 'Cycling scenery' is incorrect—use 'cycling through scenic areas'. 'gile' seems 'guide'. 'stir right' should be 'still ride'. Suggestion: choose correct verb forms and spellings and use established collocations.
× I often cycle in my local park every morning because it helped me relax and give me a positive energy for the day.
✓ I often cycle in my local park every morning because it helps me relax and gives me positive energy for the day.
Mixes present habit ('often cycle') with past 'helped'. Change to present simple 'helps' and 'gives' to match habitual action. Also 'positive energy' is uncountable here so no 'a'. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and adjust articles with uncountable nouns.
× For example, I usually met my friends three time there twice a week and we write about.
✓ For example, I usually meet my friends there three times, twice a week, and we write about our experiences.
Tense should be present 'meet' to match habitual frequency. 'three time' -> 'three times'. 'there twice a week' ordering improved for clarity. 'we write about' is incomplete—add object 'our experiences'. Suggestion: correct plurality, verb tense, and complete the sentence with an object.
× No we don't have same hobbies.
✓ No, we don't have the same hobbies.
Missing comma after 'No' for clarity and missing definite article 'the' before 'same hobbies'. Suggestion: include articles when referring to specific shared category.
× I really enjoy strolling through social media like Tiktok and Facebook and posting updates and I also playing sports like badminton.
✓ I really enjoy scrolling through social media like TikTok and Facebook and posting updates, and I also play sports like badminton.
'Strolling through social media' is incorrect collocation; 'scrolling' is the correct gerund. 'Tiktok' -> 'TikTok' capitalization. 'I also playing' should be 'I also play' (present simple). Suggestion: use correct gerunds and subject-verb forms.
× However my parents are prefer a quieter activities like reading books or gardening.
✓ However, my parents prefer quieter activities like reading books or gardening.
'are prefer' is incorrect; 'prefer' is the correct verb form. Remove 'a' before plural 'activities'. Add comma after 'However'. Suggestion: use simple present for preferences and ensure determiners agree with plural nouns.
