× I prefer to wear practical and cultural clothes such as tissues and jeans or socks because they are comfortable and easy to move in.
✓ I prefer to wear practical and comfortable clothes such as T-shirts, jeans, or socks because they are comfortable and allow me to move easily.
The student used 'tissues' instead of 'T-shirts' (wrong word choice) and 'cultural' seems inappropriate for clothing here. Also 'easy to move in' is acceptable but 'allow me to move easily' is clearer. Replace incorrect nouns and reorder phrase for natural English. Grammar problem type ID: 1
× Yes I do. I prefer to wear practical and kosher clothes because they are more make me feel more comfortable and confident. By the way, it is easy to wash, I think it is a big plus.
✓ Yes, I do. I prefer to wear practical and comfortable clothes because they make me feel more comfortable and confident. By the way, they are easy to wash, which I think is a big plus.
'Kosher' is inappropriate here; likely meant 'casual' or 'comfortable'. 'more make me feel more' is ungrammatical; use 'make me feel more'. Maintain plural agreement ('they are easy to wash'). Punctuation and article use improved. Grammar problem type ID: 13
× Definitely. I often wear teasers because they go well with other clothes like jeans or socks. I usually wear T-shirts when I hang out with friends or studying.
✓ Definitely. I often wear T-shirts because they go well with other clothes like jeans or shorts. I usually wear T-shirts when I hang out with friends or study.
'Teasers' is incorrect; should be 'T-shirts'. 'Socks' is odd as an outfit item; 'shorts' or 'trousers/jeans' fits better. Use parallel verbs: 'hang out with friends or study' (both base forms) or 'when I am studying'. Grammar problem type ID: 1
× Yes I do, but to be honest it depends on the situation. I spend a lot of time choosing which one is better when I have to participate in, you know, special or umm, formal events.
✓ Yes, I do, but to be honest it depends on the situation. I spend a lot of time choosing what to wear when I have to participate in special or formal events.
'Choosing which one is better' is wordy and awkward; 'choosing what to wear' is concise. Remove filler words. 'Participate in special or formal events' is fine but 'special or formal events' is adequate without extra fillers. Grammar problem type ID: 26
× Yes I do. On weekdays I usually wear something formal because I have to meet my friends and teachers in class. However, in weekends I just want something comfortable and that's why it's easy.
✓ Yes, I do. On weekdays I usually wear something formal because I meet my friends and teachers in class. However, on weekends I prefer something comfortable because it is more convenient.
Use 'on weekends' (use preposition 'on' with 'weekends'). 'That's why it's easy' is unclear; replace with 'because it is more convenient' to express reason. Remove unnecessary 'have to' if not intended. Grammar problem type ID: 11
× I'm keen on yellow, yes, to be honest, that's why most of my clothes are yellow and you can see my rope now also yellow. Actually, it's not just because I'm a Buddhist monk, but I when I used to look yellow and now I also love yellow.
✓ I'm keen on yellow, to be honest; that's why most of my clothes are yellow and you can see my robe is also yellow. Actually, it's not just because I'm a Buddhist monk; I have always liked yellow and now I love it even more.
Use 'robe' not 'rope'. Fix sentence fragments and tense: 'I when I used to look yellow' is ungrammatical. Use 'I have always liked yellow' or 'I used to like yellow' depending on meaning. Clarify with proper punctuation and conjunctions. Grammar problem type ID: 12
