× Yes, I sometimes chat with my friends to exchange homework and we also get to stay in touch and share our stories.
✓ Yes, I sometimes chat with my friends to exchange homework, and we also stay in touch and share our stories.
The phrase 'get to stay in touch' is unnecessary and awkward; use simple present 'stay' to describe habitual actions. Use a comma before 'and' joining two independent clauses. Suggestion: use clear simple present for routines.
× For example, we often use a group chat to discuss assessment and to catch up about what happened during a week.
✓ For example, we often use a group chat to discuss assessments and to catch up about what happened during the week.
Use plural 'assessments' when speaking generally. Use 'the week' not 'a week' for referring to the recent week. 'Catch up about' is acceptable but 'catch up on' or 'about' both used; here 'about' is fine.
× I usually chat with my friends about my assignment and school work because we need to have each other with projects and homework.
✓ I usually chat with my friends about my assignments and schoolwork because we need to help each other with projects and homework.
Use plural 'assignments' for general tasks and 'schoolwork' as one word. 'Have each other with' is incorrect collocation; correct phrase is 'help each other with'.
× I also tell them about my personal stories to share my feelings and get support when I feel upset.
✓ I also tell them my personal stories to share my feelings and get support when I feel upset.
Omit 'about' after 'tell them' when followed by direct object 'my personal stories'. 'Tell them about my personal stories' is not wrong but more natural is 'tell them my personal stories' or 'talk to them about my personal experiences'.
× It depends on what content because when I want to talk about my assignment or homework, uh, I will chat with a group because we have to have each other with projects.
✓ It depends on the content. When I want to talk about assignments or homework, I chat with a group because we help each other with projects.
Break into two sentences for clarity. Use present simple for habitual actions ('I chat'). Fix 'we have to have each other with' to 'we help each other with'. Remove filler 'uh'. Use plural 'assignments'.
× But when I feel sad or upset, I will chat to a person to express my emotions and.
✓ But when I feel sad or upset, I will chat with one person to express my emotions.
Use 'chat with' not 'chat to'. 'A person' is unnatural; use 'one person'. Remove trailing 'and'. Use present/future consistently: 'I will' or 'I chat' — 'I will chat with one person' is fine.
× As you know, social media has become an prevalent in recent years, so I think chatting on social media is a better way because it's convenient and fast.
✓ As you know, social media has become prevalent in recent years, so I think chatting on social media is better because it's convenient and fast.
'An prevalent' is wrong: 'prevalent' is an adjective that does not need an article here. Use 'become prevalent' or 'has become very prevalent'. Also 'a better way' -> 'better' is more natural when comparing generally; keep concise.
× However, sometimes we need to speak face to face, for example when discussing important matters or expressing emotions.
✓ However, sometimes we need to speak face to face, for example when we discuss important matters or express emotions.
Either gerund phrases or finite verbs are acceptable. Use parallel structure: 'when we discuss... or express...' is clearer for spoken habit. Maintain consistent subject and tense.
× Honestly, it depends on my mood and our opinions.
✓ Honestly, it depends on my mood and on our opinions.
Add preposition 'on' before 'our opinions' for parallel structure: 'depends on X and on Y'. Present tense 'depends' is correct.
× Sometimes we disagree about how to do a group project because people have different ideas, you know?
✓ Sometimes we disagree about how to do a group project because people have different ideas.
This sentence is grammatically fine; remove colloquial 'you know?' in formal response. 'Disagree about' is correct.
× But we usually resolve it by discussing and com compromising afterward.
✓ But we usually resolve it by discussing and compromising afterward.
Remove typo 'com' before 'compromising'. Use the gerund 'compromising' to match 'discussing' in parallel structure.
