× Well, not often but you know, when I'm on a public transport kind of like personal taxi and have known people to get a chance with me.
✓ Well, not often, but when I'm on public transport or in a ride-share taxi and there are other people with me, I put them on.
This sentence has multiple structural problems: incorrect articles ('a public transport'), missing subject for 'have known people', and unclear phrasing. I corrected the article use ('public transport' without 'a'), clarified 'personal taxi' to 'ride-share taxi', added a clear subject for 'there are other people with me', and used a simple present tense 'I put them on' to match habitual action. Suggestion: break long ideas into shorter clauses, ensure each clause has a subject and verb, and choose correct articles for uncountable nouns like 'transport'.

× So I'm gonna put it on and you know, turn on some podcasts in English to learn more about English culture or like V pop so.
✓ So I usually put them on and turn on English podcasts to learn more about English culture or Vietnamese pop music.
The original used 'I'm gonna' which is informal and mixes tenses with 'usually' implied. I changed to 'I usually put them on' to express habitual action in the present simple and clarified 'V pop' to 'Vietnamese pop music' for clarity. Suggestion: use present simple for habitual actions and avoid overly conversational contractions in formal responses. Please note this entry corresponds to Grammar Problem Type ID 6.
× Whoa, it's a kind of, you know, noise cancellings activate and it's actually produced by, you know, some brands in the USA and it's have been, you know, transfers to Vietnam and badly stuff as the.
✓ It's a kind of noise-cancelling headphone, produced by a brand in the USA, and it has been imported to Vietnam.
Errors included pluralization and formation ('noise cancellings activate'), incorrect verb forms ('it's have been transfers'), and unclear phrases ('badly stuff as the'). I corrected to the adjective form 'noise-cancelling', singular 'headphone' (or 'headphones' if preferred), proper passive 'has been imported', and removed unclear fragments. Suggestion: use correct adjective forms (compound adjectives like 'noise-cancelling'), ensure subject-verb agreement, and avoid filler words that obscure meaning. Please note this entry corresponds to Grammar Problem Type ID 13.
× Well, like I'm saying, when I was, uh, you know, public transport and money that in, uh, in, you know, schools I'm using, uh, really recently in some subject that I need to pay attention.
✓ As I said, when I am on public transport or at school recently, I use them for subjects in which I need to concentrate.
Problems included wrong tense and prepositions ('when I was... public transport'), unclear noun 'money that in', and awkward phrasing. I used present simple for habitual situations ('when I am on public transport'), corrected prepositions ('on public transport', 'at school'), and clarified 'subjects in which I need to concentrate'. Suggestion: choose appropriate prepositions for locations ('on' for transport, 'at' for school) and keep tense consistent for habitual actions. Please note this entry corresponds to Grammar Problem Type ID 11.
× So I have to turn on some Mozart, you know, uh, really lock in my deadline.
✓ So I have to play Mozart to help me focus and meet my deadlines.
The original 'turn on some Mozart... really lock in my deadline' mixes idioms and wrong verb forms. 'Turn on' is fine for a device but 'lock in my deadline' is incorrect; the intended meaning is 'focus' and 'meet my deadline'. I changed 'turn on' to 'play' and used 'help me focus and meet my deadlines' for clarity. Suggestion: use correct collocations ('meet a deadline', 'focus') and match verbs to intended meaning. Please note this entry corresponds to Grammar Problem Type ID 8.
× Well, of course, when I belong with my friends and my family, uh, in the car, you know, when jump in the car and that was, you know, a goal time to pay attention to each other and can ask some, you know, personal questions and get a real answer for your problems.
✓ Of course, when I am with my friends or family in the car, it is a good time to pay attention to each other, ask personal questions, and get honest answers to our problems.
Errors included incorrect verb 'belong with' (should be 'am with'), incorrect tense ('that was'), wrong word 'goal' instead of 'good', and modal/structure problems ('and can ask'). I corrected to present simple for habitual situations, fixed word choice ('good time'), and used proper infinitive and noun forms ('ask personal questions', 'honest answers to our problems'). Suggestion: use 'be with' to indicate company, choose correct adjectives, and keep verb forms parallel in lists. Please note this entry corresponds to Grammar Problem Type ID 11.
× Well, of course, you know when you use the headphones just put your arm and when you don't need to use it, you can, you know, I, I hang it on your neck and you know, wanted to play it loud and cannot.
✓ Of course, when you use headphones you can rest your arm; when you don't need them, you can hang them around your neck. If you want to play music loudly, you often cannot do so in public.
Many pronoun and reference errors: inconsistent pronouns ('you' vs 'I'), incorrect noun phrases ('put your arm'), and unclear modal meaning ('wanted to play it loud and cannot'). I standardized to 'you' for general statements, corrected to 'hang them around your neck', and clarified the restriction on playing music loudly in public. Suggestion: keep pronouns consistent within a sentence, use clear verb phrases ('hang around your neck'), and state ability/permission with modals like 'can' or 'cannot'.
