× I do reading and listening to music.
✓ I read and listen to music.
The verb 'do' is unnecessary with activity verbs here. Use base verbs for habitual actions: 'read' and 'listen'. Use present simple for habits.
× It helps me relax, relax, uh, after a busy day at work, uh, I like reading, uh, various types of books and.
✓ It helps me relax after a busy day at work. I like reading various types of books.
Run-on sentence and trailing conjunction 'and' create a fragment. Split into two sentences and remove filler words. Complete the second sentence by removing the final 'and'.
× I like to do paintings when I was a child, uh, it helps me, uh, relax and also it gives me opportunity to, uh, to see my, uh, talent and.
✓ I liked painting when I was a child; it helped me relax and also gave me the opportunity to see my talent.
Tense inconsistency: talking about childhood requires past tense ('liked', 'helped', 'gave'). Use 'painting' (uncountable activity) not 'do paintings'. Remove extraneous 'to' and trailing 'and'.
× I like to do, I like to do paintings when I was a child, uh, it helps me, uh, relax and also it gives me opportunity to, uh, to see my, uh, talent and.
✓ I liked to paint when I was a child; it helped me relax and gave me the opportunity to discover my talent.
Mixed present and past tenses: when referring to past habits use past tense forms ('liked', 'helped', 'gave'). Use 'paint' instead of 'do paintings' and 'discover my talent' is natural. Remove fillers and incomplete ending.
× I, I liked paintings when I was a child and uh, currently, uh, when I have a free time, I do paintings and those paintings I give as a gift to others.
✓ I liked painting when I was a child and now, when I have free time, I paint and give my paintings as gifts to others.
Maintain past tense for childhood 'liked' then present simple for current habits 'paint' and 'give'. Use 'painting' as an activity and 'gifts' plural. Remove unnecessary articles: 'free time' no 'a'.
× Of course, uh, we, my parents and I all, uh, watching movies together and sometimes, uh, we also do cooking together.
✓ Of course, my parents and I all watch movies together and sometimes we also cook together.
Missing verb form: use present simple 'watch' and 'cook' for habitual actions. 'We, my parents and I all' is awkward; 'my parents and I all' can be simplified to 'my parents and I all' or better 'my parents and I'. Remove filler words and use correct verb conjugation.
× Uh, and we enjoyed doing this together.
✓ We enjoy doing this together.
Context indicates a current habitual activity ('we watch movies and sometimes we also cook'); use present simple 'enjoy' not past 'enjoyed' to match present. If intention was past, keep past tense consistently.
× I like reading, uh, various types of books and.
✓ I like reading various types of books.
Trailing 'and' creates incomplete sentence. Remove filler and the conjunction. No article needed before 'various types of books'.
