× No, I don't walk really often because all the destination I want to come, uh, in my daily life is much fast for my place.
✓ No, I don't walk very often because all the destinations I want to go to in my daily life are much closer to my place.
Incorrect prepositions and word choice: 'walk really often' -> 'walk very often'; 'destination I want to come' should be 'destinations I want to go to'; 'is much fast for my place' should be 'are much closer to my place'. Also plural agreement for 'destinations' and verb agreement with plural subject are fixed. Suggestion: use 'go to' with destinations and 'closer' to describe proximity.
× But whenever I have to go exercise or practising something, I often work a lot.
✓ But whenever I have to exercise or practice something, I often work hard.
Subject-verb and verb form issues: 'go exercise or practising' mixes forms. Use parallel infinitives: 'have to exercise or practice'. 'Work a lot' is natural but 'work hard' better fits meaning of exerting effort. Suggestion: keep verbs parallel and choose appropriate collocation ('work hard').
× Uh, that would enhance, enhance my physical ability.
✓ That enhances my physical ability.
Tense inconsistency and modal misuse: 'would enhance' is conditional/unreal; speaker refers to a general fact, so present simple 'enhances' is appropriate. Repetition removed. Suggestion: use present simple for habitual or general truths.
× Yes. When I was a child, I usually go out to have a hangout with my friends.
✓ Yes. When I was a child, I usually went out to hang out with my friends.
Incorrect past tense: 'go' should be past 'went' to match 'When I was a child' context. 'to have a hangout' is awkward; 'to hang out' is idiomatic. Suggestion: keep past tense consistency and use natural collocations.
× We were going in a group and wandering around the village.
✓ We went in a group and wandered around the village.
Present participle 'were going' suggests continuous past but simple past 'went' is clearer for habitual past actions. Both verbs should match tense: use past simple 'went' and 'wandered'. Suggestion: use consistent past simple for repeated past activities.
× That was a really memorable thing that I love to.
✓ That was a really memorable experience that I loved.
Awkward sentence structure and tense mismatch: 'that I love to' is ungrammatical. Change to 'that I loved' to match past reference and use 'experience' instead of 'thing' for natural phrasing. Suggestion: use clear noun and correct tense for past memories.
× I think it is because parks are the most ideal place for exercising and enjoying the atmosphere because the AI there feels so fresh and when people walk in there they can enjoy the fresh air and they can be more relaxed and unwind.
✓ I think it is because parks are ideal places for exercising and enjoying the atmosphere because the air there feels so fresh, and when people walk there they can enjoy the fresh air and relax and unwind.
Incorrect word 'AI' should be 'air'. 'Most ideal' is redundant; use 'ideal' or 'most suitable'. 'Place' should be plural 'places' to match general statement. 'Walk in there' -> 'walk there'. 'Be more relaxed and unwind' corrected to 'relax and unwind'. Suggestion: avoid redundancy and incorrect words, use plural for general statements.
× I would say that is the lake which is nearby my neighborhood.
✓ I would say that it is the lake near my neighborhood.
Article and relative clause misuse: 'the lake which is nearby my neighborhood' is awkward. Use 'the lake near my neighborhood' or 'a lake near my neighborhood' depending on context. 'That is' -> 'that it is' is more natural in this sentence. Suggestion: use concise relative phrases and correct demonstrative structure.
× I often go there for a long while because it's helped me to clears my mind in the and the atmosphere there was so refreshing.
✓ I often go there for a long time because it helps me clear my mind, and the atmosphere there is so refreshing.
Tense and verb form errors: 'it's helped me to clears' mixes present perfect and incorrect verb form. Use present simple 'helps' for habitual action and 'clear my mind' (not 'clears'). 'a long while' -> 'a long time'. 'was so refreshing' -> 'is so refreshing' to describe a current characteristic. Suggestion: keep habitual statements in present simple and use correct verb forms.
× And after a busy day, I also want to come to a quiet place to umm have enjoyed the the the fresh air.
✓ And after a busy day, I also want to go to a quiet place to enjoy the fresh air.
Adverb/verb form and word repetition errors: 'have enjoyed' is incorrect for intent; use 'to enjoy'. Remove filler 'umm' and repeated 'the'. 'Come to' -> 'go to' is more natural when speaking of visiting a place. Suggestion: use infinitive 'to enjoy' to express purpose and avoid filler words.
× So that's what I would go for longer.
✓ So that's where I would go for a longer time.
Unnatural phrase and tense: 'go for longer' lacks object; specify 'for a longer time' and use 'where' to refer to place. Suggestion: use clear expression of duration.
× Well, I went for a walk in the nearby park last weekend.
✓ Well, I went for a walk in the nearby park last weekend.
Sentence is correct. No change needed.
× It was really relaxing because there were many trees and quiet paths, and I walked with my friends for about an hour.
✓ It was really relaxing because there were many trees and quiet paths, and I walked with my friends for about an hour.
Sentence is correct; articles used properly. No change needed.
× For example, we sat by the pond and fed some ducks.
✓ For example, we sat by the pond and fed some ducks.
Sentence is correct; 'by the pond' is the appropriate prepositional phrase. No change needed.
