× Yes, I do use headphones.
✓ Yes, I do use headphones.
The original sentence is grammatically acceptable; no third person singular error. The subject is 'I', so no change is needed.
× My favorite headphone is Bluetooth headphone.
✓ My favorite headphones are Bluetooth headphones.
'Headphone' should be plural when speaking generally about the type or a pair; use 'headphones' for standard usage. Also use plural verb 'are' to agree with plural subject. Consider: use plural nouns for items that usually come in pairs.
× I used to listen music with the help of that.
✓ I used to listen to music with its help.
The verb 'listen' requires the preposition 'to' before its object. 'With the help of that' is awkward; 'with its help' is more natural. 'Used to' is correct for past habitual action.
× My headphone is Sony.
✓ My headphones are Sony.
Use 'headphones' plural for the device worn on both ears; therefore the verb should be plural 'are'. Proper noun 'Sony' is fine.
× My father gifted me that headphone.
✓ My father gifted me those headphones.
Use 'those headphones' or 'that pair of headphones' instead of 'that headphone'. 'Those' matches plural noun 'headphones' and is natural for a gift.
× I'm using wireless headphones.
✓ I use wireless headphones.
Present continuous 'I'm using' is possible but simple present 'I use' is more natural when stating habitual preference. Maintain tense consistent with question about current typical use.
× I still remember when I was studying in 12th grade, my father gifted me this headphone.
✓ I still remember that when I was studying in 12th grade, my father gifted me these headphones.
Use 'these headphones' for a specific item given in the past and plural 'headphones'. 'Studying in 12th grade' is fine; 'that' introduces the remembered clause more naturally than 'when' alone.
× I like this headphone.
✓ I like these headphones.
Use plural 'headphones' and demonstrative 'these' for a specific item close to speaker. 'This headphone' is unnatural for a pair.
× It is the brand of Apple.
✓ It is an Apple brand.
'Brand of Apple' is awkward; 'an Apple brand' or 'made by Apple' is more natural. Use article 'an' before vowel sound.
× It's white color.
✓ It's white.
Do not use 'color' after a color adjective when describing an object's appearance. Simply say 'It's white.'
× I used to listen music with them.
✓ I used to listen to music with them.
'Listen' needs the preposition 'to' before the object. 'Used to' correctly indicates past habitual action.
× Most of the times I use headphones in my life because I'm working in a multinational company.
✓ Most of the time I use headphones because I work in a multinational company.
Use singular 'most of the time' (not 'times'); place adverbial phrase before reason. Use simple present 'I work' for a habitual/ongoing job rather than present continuous 'I'm working' if stating general fact.
× I used to make calls with my friends, family members and the employer.
✓ I make calls with my friends, family members, and my employer.
'Used to' implies past habit; likely present habit here, so use 'I make'. Also add possessive 'my' for 'employer' and include Oxford comma for clarity.
× Through that way I'm using my headphone.
✓ I use my headphones that way.
The original word order is awkward. 'That way' should follow the verb; use plural 'headphones' and simple present 'I use' for habitual action.
× I usually not using a phone while attending a funerals because in that situation we need a piece because since everyone is watching hit me so I'm not supposed to use headphone.
✓ I usually do not use a phone while attending funerals because in that situation we need peace and everyone is watching us, so I'm not supposed to use headphones.
Many errors: use 'do not' for negative in simple present ('usually do not use'), plural 'funerals' without article for general statement, 'peace' not 'piece', remove redundant 'because', correct 'watching us' not 'watching hit me', and use plural 'headphones'. Break into clearer clauses for readability.
× Yes, wearing headphone is comfortable for me because it's become part part of my life.
✓ Yes, wearing headphones is comfortable for me because they've become part of my life.
Use plural 'headphones'. 'They've become' (they have become) agrees with plural subject. Remove repeated word 'part'.
× Whenever I do wear the headphone it give me comfortable and it is a stress relief for me.
✓ Whenever I wear the headphones, they make me comfortable and provide stress relief for me.
Do not use 'do' auxiliary unless for emphasis; use 'wear' simply. Use plural 'headphones' and plural verb 'they make'. 'Give me comfortable' is ungrammatical; use 'make me comfortable'. 'Provide stress relief' is more natural.
