× It's something I. Avoid when I was still in school.
✓ It's something I avoided when I was still in school.
The sentence incorrectly uses the present tense 'avoid' when referring to a past action. The verb should be in the past tense 'avoided' to match the time frame indicated by 'when I was still in school.'
× Maybe that's because geography is full of memorize things.
✓ Maybe that's because geography is full of things to memorize.
The phrase 'memorize things' is incorrect; the correct form is 'things to memorize' to express that geography contains many items that need memorization.
× especially for people living in Asian,
✓ especially for people living in Asia,
'Asian' is an adjective or a singular noun referring to a person; the correct noun for the continent is 'Asia.'
× because in geography we can know about what whatever happened with our earth.
✓ because in geography we can learn about whatever happens to our earth.
The phrase 'know about what whatever happened with our earth' is awkward and incorrect. 'Learn about' is more appropriate, and 'happens to our earth' correctly expresses ongoing events affecting the earth.
× That can make us more aware for natural disaster, I guess.
✓ That can make us more aware of natural disasters, I guess.
The correct preposition after 'aware' is 'of,' and 'natural disaster' should be pluralized to 'natural disasters' to refer generally.
× Yes, of course we have geography class in high school, but I don't really understand what the teacher is saying because before I don't really know the benefit from it.
✓ Yes, of course we had geography class in high school, but I didn't really understand what the teacher was saying because before I didn't really know the benefits of it.
The sentence mixes present and past tenses incorrectly. Since the context is past, verbs should be in past tense: 'had,' 'didn't understand,' 'was saying,' 'didn't know.' Also, 'benefit' should be plural 'benefits,' and 'from' should be 'of.'
× But beside of that I know that geography teacher is very useful in this era.
✓ But besides that, I know that a geography teacher is very useful in this era.
The phrase 'beside of that' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'besides that.' Also, 'geography teacher' needs an article 'a' before it.
× I think no because I have another dream that I want to achieve.
✓ I don't think so because I have another dream that I want to achieve.
The phrase 'I think no' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'I don't think so' to express disagreement or refusal.
× Will you learn more about the geography of other countries?
✓ Will you learn more about the geography of other countries?
This sentence is a question from the examiner and is grammatically correct; no correction needed.
× I think no, because that's not my specialty and I thought I prefer spending my time to learn something else, like human psychology for example.
✓ I don't think so, because that's not my specialty and I think I prefer spending my time learning something else, like human psychology for example.
The phrase 'I think no' should be 'I don't think so.' Also, 'I thought I prefer' is incorrect; it should be 'I think I prefer.' The verb 'spending my time to learn' should be 'spending my time learning.'
