✓ Actually, I haven't had any interest in geography because I haven't been good at it since I was a child.
句中描述从过去持续到现在的状态,应该使用现在完成时态,表示从过去某时开始一直持续到现在的动作或状态。原句使用一般现在时不符合时间逻辑。

✓ Even though I found it very challenging and difficult for me, so I didn't get a good mark in this subject, I still find it very useful in our daily life, and geography is very important in knowing more countries.
“Even though”引导让步状语从句,后面不应再接“so”,两者逻辑冲突,应去掉“so”。另外,时态应保持一致,描述过去经历时应使用过去时。句尾“and”后无内容,应删除。
× I don't think I can be able to explain the concepts clearly to students.
✓ I don't think I can explain the concepts clearly to students.
“can”和“be able to”都表示能力,不能叠加使用,二者选其一即可。原句重复使用导致语法错误。
