× I actually go to a quiet place to resign late because I don't like noisy place.
✓ I actually go to a quiet place to relax lately because I don't like noisy places.
The student used 'resign' instead of the correct verb 'relax' (word choice error) and 'late' instead of 'lately' (adverb of time). Also 'noisy place' needs plural 'noisy places' or an article. Suggestion: use the verb 'relax', the adverb 'lately' for recent habit, and pluralize or add an article: 'noisy places' or 'a noisy place'.
× She doesn't uh, she also don't like. She also doesn't like about noisy places.
✓ She doesn't like noisy places either.
Original contains subject-verb disagreement: 'she' requires 'doesn't' followed by base verb 'like'; 'don't' is incorrect. Also redundant and ungrammatical fragment 'doesn't like about noisy places' should be simplified. Suggestion: use 'She doesn't like noisy places either.' to convey the meaning concisely.
× Of course, I think listening to music is very important to relax our mind because. It can study our emotions and others.
✓ Of course, I think listening to music is very important to relax our minds because it can soothe our emotions and affect others.
Problems: sentence broken by a period after 'because' (sentence structure error) and 'relax our mind' should be 'relax our minds' (plural or 'the mind'); 'It can study our emotions' is incorrect verb meaning—use 'soothe' or 'calm'. Also 'and others' is vague—'and affect others' if intended. Suggestion: combine clauses, use correct verb 'soothe', and match singular/plural: 'our minds'.
× I actually stroll around the city to relax my mind and also got to fresh on what exactly due to relax my.
✓ I usually stroll around the city to relax my mind and also go get some fresh air to help me relax.
Errors include incorrect tense/verb forms: 'got to fresh' is ungrammatical; 'what exactly due to relax my' is fragmentary and unclear. Suggestion: use present simple 'stroll' for habitual action, 'go get some fresh air' for expression, and finish with 'to help me relax' to make a clear purpose clause.
