× Uh, in real life, at first I'm a student, but also I'm a programmer and yeah, I take many different uh projects in programming.
✓ Uh, in real life, at first I'm a student, but also I'm a programmer and yeah, I take on many different uh projects in programming.
The verb 'take' in this context requires the preposition 'on' to correctly express involvement in projects. Adding 'on' clarifies the meaning and corrects the verb usage.
× For example with security we have developing or other fields.
✓ For example, with security, we have development or other fields.
The phrase 'have developing' is incorrect; 'development' is the correct noun form here. Also, commas are added for clarity around the phrase 'with security'.
× after that I came back, come back home and do my tasks and, uh, project.
✓ after that I come back home and do my tasks and, uh, projects.
The sentence mixes past tense 'came back' with present tense 'do'. Since the context is habitual actions, present tense 'come back' is appropriate. Also, 'project' should be plural 'projects' to match 'tasks' and the context.
× Yeah, I am in programming basically, uh, we work in home usually, I said.
✓ Yeah, I am in programming basically, uh, we usually work at home, I said.
The correct preposition for being inside one's home is 'at home', not 'in home'. Also, adverb 'usually' is better placed before the verb for natural English word order.
× But uh, I work in home.
✓ But uh, I work at home.
The preposition 'at' is used with 'home' to indicate location, not 'in'. 'Work at home' is the correct phrase.
× Usually I, I uh, prefer a coffee shop or uh, other working places like to a library and I usually work in library or coffee shop and usually in home.
✓ Usually I, I uh, prefer a coffee shop or uh, other working places like a library and I usually work in a library or coffee shop and usually at home.
The phrase 'like to a library' is incorrect; it should be 'like a library'. Also, 'in library' should be 'in a library' and 'in home' should be 'at home' to use correct articles and prepositions.
× At the first I have to say I have to get a IELTS certificate and after that I have a plan for moving to USA and after that, uh, I like to, uh, actually, umm, work in a big company in USA or Canada or other countries.
✓ First, I have to say I have to get an IELTS certificate and after that I have a plan to move to the USA and after that, uh, I would like to, uh, actually, umm, work in a big company in the USA or Canada or other countries.
'A IELTS' is incorrect because 'IELTS' starts with a vowel sound, so 'an' is needed. 'Moving to USA' should be 'move to the USA' with the definite article. Also, 'I like to' should be 'I would like to' to express future intention politely and correctly.
