Grammar

Present tense issue

× I feel so relaxed whenever I visit my native place, I don't need to do any work, I get time to spend time with my school friends and the most important part is everything is easily accessible.

I feel so relaxed whenever I visit my native place. I don't need to do any work. I get time to spend with my school friends, and the most important part is that everything is easily accessible.

The original sentence is a run-on sentence with multiple independent clauses joined by commas, which is grammatically incorrect. It should be split into separate sentences or joined properly with conjunctions. Also, 'spend time with' is the correct phrase, so 'spend time with my school friends' is correct, but the original had 'spend time with my school friends' which is correct; however, the sentence structure needs improvement for clarity and correctness.

Past tense issue

× I was born and brought up there. I lived for nearly 17 years until I complete my high school education.

I was born and brought up there. I lived there for nearly 17 years until I completed my high school education.

The verb 'complete' should be in the past tense 'completed' to match the past time frame indicated by 'lived' and 'until'. Also, adding 'there' after 'lived' improves clarity.

Present tense issue

× A lot of good colleges and schools have come up which improve the way how education used to be when I was a child.

A lot of good colleges and schools have come up which have improved the way education used to be when I was a child.

The verb 'improve' should be in the present perfect tense 'have improved' to agree with 'have come up' and to indicate that the improvement has occurred over time up to the present. Also, 'the way how' is redundant; it should be 'the way education used to be'.
