× I usually visit entertaining website uh, such as Facebook or YouTube.
✓ I usually visit entertaining websites, such as Facebook or YouTube.
The noun 'website' should be plural 'websites' because 'such as Facebook or YouTube' refers to multiple examples; an adjective alone cannot make it plural. Use plural to match 'such as' and the general meaning. Suggestion: Make the noun plural when mentioning multiple examples: 'entertaining websites.'
× and I feel that that they are so essential.
✓ and I feel that they are very useful.
There is an extra 'that' and the pronoun 'they' is sufficient. 'Essential' is strong and may not fit context; 'very useful' or 'helpful' is clearer. Remove the repeated word and keep correct pronoun reference. Suggestion: Say 'I feel that they are very useful.'
× Well if I I have many favorite website but if I had to choose one it would be due to because it's a huge source of educational and entertaining content and I often use this to watch tutorials and lectures when it's really and also to relax by watching feed vlogs or short documentaries.
✓ Well, I have many favourite websites, but if I had to choose one it would be because it's a huge source of educational and entertaining content and I often use it to watch tutorials and lectures and also to relax by watching vlogs or short documentaries.
Multiple issues: 'website' should be plural 'websites' when referring to many favorites; 'due to because' is redundant and incorrect, use 'because'; 'this' referring to a website should be 'it'; 'feed vlogs' is incorrect—use 'vlogs'. Keep conjunctions and pronouns consistent. Suggestion: Break long sentence; use 'websites', 'because', and 'it'.

✓ Well, I have many favourite websites, but if I had to choose one it would be because it's a huge source of educational and entertaining content and I often use it to watch tutorials and lectures and also to relax by watching vlogs or short documentaries.
Missing commas and repetition aside, ensure articles and demonstratives are correct: 'it' refers to 'one website' chosen. Avoid 'due to because' which is redundant. Also remove extra filler 'when it's really'. Suggestion: Use clear pronouns and remove redundant words.
× they now feature a lot of more short form videos and these trains had has reduced our, uh, attention span and make me uh, refer quick videos over long articles and especially on platform like YouTube.
✓ they now feature many more short-form videos, and these trends have reduced our attention spans and make me prefer quick videos over long articles, especially on platforms like YouTube.
Use 'many more' rather than 'a lot of more'; 'short-form' needs hyphen; 'trains had has' is garbled—should be 'trends have'; 'attention span' should be plural 'attention spans' to match plural subject; 'refer' is wrong verb—use 'prefer'; 'platform' should be plural 'platforms' when giving examples. Suggestion: Use 'many more', correct verb forms 'have reduced', and 'prefer'.
× People often use streaming websites and apps like YouTube or Tiktok to and why after work and they use social networks to keep in touch with friends and follow news and trends.
✓ People often use streaming websites and apps like YouTube or TikTok to relax after work, and they use social networks to keep in touch with friends and follow news and trends.
The phrase 'to and why after work' is incorrect; the intended meaning is 'to relax after work' or similar. Ensure the preposition 'after' is used correctly and remove extraneous words. Capitalize 'TikTok'. Suggestion: Say 'to relax after work.'
× I prefer getting information from books because their content is usually carefully checked before publication, so it tends to be more reliable.
✓ I prefer getting information from books because their content is usually carefully checked before publication, so they tend to be more reliable.
Pronoun agreement: 'books' is plural, so the pronoun referring back should be plural 'they' rather than singular 'it'. Suggestion: Use plural pronoun 'they' to match 'books.'
× Instead, I usually share my work on social media, which is easier to maintain and reaches A wider audience.
✓ Instead, I usually share my work on social media, which is easier to maintain and reaches a wider audience.
Capitalization error 'A' should be lowercase 'a'; use the indefinite article 'a' before 'wider audience'. Suggestion: Use 'a wider audience' and correct capitalization.

✓ Whenever something goes wrong, I search for tutorials or troubleshooting guides online and usually find step-by-step solutions that help save my time and money.
'shape save' is incorrect; likely intended 'help save'. Also 'step by step' should be hyphenated when used as a compound adjective: 'step-by-step'. Suggestion: Use 'help save' and hyphenate 'step-by-step'.
