× I read books and also listen books.
✓ I read books and also listen to audiobooks.
The verb 'listen' requires the preposition 'to' before its object; also 'listen books' is unnatural—use 'listen to audiobooks' to convey listening to books in audio form. Suggestion: use 'listen to' + noun or 'listen to audiobooks.'
× So sometimes when I read books I listen music or if I want to concentrate myself I listen tunes.
✓ So sometimes when I read books I listen to music, or if I want to concentrate I listen to tunes.
The verb 'listen' needs the preposition 'to' before its object. 'Concentrate myself' is incorrect; use 'concentrate' (intransitive) or 'concentrate on something.' Suggestion: use 'listen to music' and 'concentrate' or 'concentrate on my work.'
× Argus earbuds, they are basically because whenever I'm traveling outside or else I'm driving.
✓ I use Argus earbuds mainly when I'm traveling or driving.
The original is disfluent and repeats subject; use a single clear subject. 'Traveling outside' and 'or else' are unnecessary. Pronoun 'they are basically because' is incorrect structure. Suggestion: combine into one clear clause: 'I use Argus earbuds mainly when I'm traveling or driving.'
× So earphones or earbuds are the most effective use or a common use.
✓ Earphones or earbuds are the most commonly used and most practical option for me.
The phrase 'most effective use or a common use' is ungrammatical. Use adjective 'commonly used' or 'most practical option.' Suggestion: say 'Earphones or earbuds are the most commonly used option for me.'
× Uh, it makes me drive safe whenever I'm in call or when.
✓ They help me drive safely when I'm on a call.
Subject-verb and adverb forms: 'it' should be 'they' (earbuds), 'drive safe' should be 'drive safely' (adverb), and 'in call' should be 'on a call.' Remove trailing 'or when.' Suggestion: 'They help me drive safely when I'm on a call.'
× Most probably I use headphones during my meeting times, whenever I listen music or whenever I do my chops like cleaning the house or cleaning the kitchen.
✓ I usually use headphones during meetings, when I listen to music, or when I do chores like cleaning the house or kitchen.
Use present simple 'I usually use' for habitual actions. 'Listen music' needs 'to.' 'Chops' is incorrect; correct word is 'chores.' Suggestion: use 'I usually use headphones during meetings, when I listen to music, or when I do chores.'
× I most of the time wearing headphones and love swimming music for my concentration.
✓ Most of the time I wear headphones and love listening to music for concentration.
Missing auxiliary for present continuous: use 'I am wearing' or preferable present simple 'I wear.' 'Swimming music' is incorrect—likely 'soothing' or 'background' music; use 'listening to music.' Suggestion: use 'I wear headphones' and 'listening to music for concentration.'
× Most probably when I read something good books, I don't need tea, hard foods to like to concentrate my head because generally if I want to learn something or I want to study something about the important work, I usually do use at the time or else when I'm in a when I'm with my family, I definitely.
✓ When I read a good book, I don't need anything else to concentrate. If I want to study something important, I usually use headphones, but when I'm with my family I do not.
Original is highly ungrammatical and unclear. Simplify into clear sentences: 'When I read a good book' (singular), 'I don't need anything else to concentrate.' Remove irrelevant 'tea, hard foods' and fix tense and pronoun usage. Ensure contrasting clauses are complete. Suggestion: split into clear statements about when you do and do not use headphones.
× Yes, iPhones are very comfortable to wear.
✓ Yes, iPhones earbuds are very comfortable to wear.
'iPhones' alone refers to phones, which are not worn; likely meant 'iPhone earbuds' or 'EarPods.' Clarify noun. Capitalize 'I' in standard writing. Suggestion: specify the item: 'iPhone earbuds' or 'EarPods.'
× Sometimes a few headphones that doesn't match with our use so we cannot wear it properly.
✓ Sometimes a few headphones do not match our needs, so we cannot wear them properly.
Subject 'a few headphones' is plural, so use 'do not' (or don't) and 'them' (plural). 'Match with our use' should be 'match our needs.' Suggestion: use plural verb and pronoun agreement and more natural phrase 'match our needs.'
× But whenever I work or else I do chores to clean up my kitchen or something, I need the proper adjustment. Adjustment adjustable.
✓ But whenever I work or do chores like cleaning the kitchen, I need a proper, adjustable fit for my headphones.
Repeat and fragment 'Adjustment adjustable' is incorrect. Combine into a single clear sentence and use noun phrases 'a proper, adjustable fit.' Suggestion: use 'a proper, adjustable fit' to describe what is needed.
