× I recently go to some beautiful parks and in there we can source a lot of beautiful scenery and some trees, some plants, even some flowers.
✓ I have been going to some beautiful parks recently, and there I can see a lot of beautiful scenery, trees, plants, and even some flowers.
The student used simple present 'go' for a recent ongoing action; use present perfect continuous or present perfect 'have been going' to express recent repeated actions. 'In there' is awkward; 'there' suffices. 'Source' is incorrect verb choice; use 'see'. Use commas and list format for clarity. Suggestion: use 'I have been going to...' for actions continuing up to now and replace 'source' with 'see' or 'find'.
× And the people there are all relaxed and the atmosphere there is always unstressful.
✓ The people there are all relaxed, and the atmosphere is always stress-free.
'adverb placement' and wrong word choice: 'unstressful' is not idiomatic; use 'stress-free' or 'relaxing'. Repeating 'there' is unnecessary. Place adjectives correctly: 'the atmosphere is stress-free.' Suggestion: avoid double 'there' and use common adjective 'stress-free'.
× Actually I usually re relax with myself.
✓ Actually, I usually relax by myself.
Redundant 're' is incorrect. 'Relax with myself' is unidiomatic; use 'relax by myself' or 'alone.' Correct pronoun/reflexive use: 'myself' can be used with 'by' in this context. Suggestion: say 'I usually relax by myself.'
× In my opinion, relax with relax alone is important and essential is a time for our own person and in this time we can do whatever we want to do.
✓ In my opinion, relaxing alone is important and essential because it gives us time for ourselves, and during this time we can do whatever we want.
Sentence structure is confused and repetitive. 'Relax with relax alone' is ungrammatical; use gerund 'relaxing alone.' 'Is a time for our own person' is awkward; use 'gives us time for ourselves.' Remove redundancy 'whatever we want to do' -> 'whatever we want.' Suggestion: use gerund after 'opinion' and simplify clauses for clarity.
× MMM of course, I think listening to music is a really relax for activities in my daily time when I do some homework and feel they were so much and stressful I was stopped and to listen to some music.
✓ Mm, of course. I think listening to music is really relaxing during my daily activities. When I have a lot of stressful homework, I stop and listen to music.
Multiple problems: 'a really relax' is incorrect form; need adjective or gerund 'really relaxing' (verb+ing). 'In my daily time' is unnatural; use 'during my daily activities.' Tense mismatch: 'feel they were so much and stressful' should be 'have a lot of stressful homework' or 'feel overwhelmed by homework.' 'I was stopped and to listen' is incorrect; use 'I stop and listen.' Suggestion: use 'listening to music is really relaxing' and maintain present tense for habitual actions.
× Maybe for most of the time. I usually reading some novels to feel relaxed.
✓ Most of the time, I usually read novels to feel relaxed.
Verb form error: 'I usually reading' should be 'I usually read' (simple present for habitual action). 'Maybe for most of the time' is awkward; combine into 'Most of the time.' Suggestion: use simple present 'read' for habits and place adverbials at natural positions.
× In the novels I can focus on myself and the plot, and some plots are very turning so that I can forget everything I feel.
✓ In the novels I can focus on myself and the plot, and some plots are very engaging so I can forget everything I feel.
'Very turning' is incorrect adjective choice; use 'engaging' or 'compelling.' 'So that I can forget everything I feel' is wordy; use 'so I can forget my worries' or 'forget everything' for clarity. Ensure adjective modifies noun correctly. Suggestion: replace 'turning' with 'engaging' and simplify the clause to 'so I can forget my worries.'
