Grammar

Past tense issue

× I had never been in libraries, but two months ago I've started going to libraries because I needed to prepare to enroll university.

I had never been to libraries, but two months ago I started going to libraries because I needed to prepare to enroll in university.

The past perfect 'had never been' is acceptable, but 'been in libraries' should be 'been to libraries' because 'been to' is used for visiting places. 'I've started' (present perfect) is inconsistent with 'two months ago' (specific past time), so it should be simple past 'started'. Also, 'to enroll university' is missing the preposition 'in'. Suggestions: Use 'been to' for places visited, use simple past with specific past time expressions, and include necessary prepositions.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I had never been in libraries, but two months ago I've started going to libraries because I needed to prepare to enroll university.

I had never been to libraries, but two months ago I started going to libraries because I needed to prepare to enroll in university.

The preposition 'in' is incorrect after 'been' when referring to visiting places; the correct preposition is 'to'. Also, 'enroll university' requires the preposition 'in' to be grammatically correct. Suggestion: Use 'been to' for visiting places and 'enroll in' when referring to joining an institution.

Present tense issue

× To be honest, I never read in libraries because I use my own materials.

To be honest, I never read in libraries because I use my own materials.

No correction needed here as the present tense is appropriate for habitual actions.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Usually I get them from Internet or from my teachers.

Usually I get them from the Internet or from my teachers.

The noun 'Internet' requires the definite article 'the' when referring to the global network. Suggestion: Use 'the Internet' instead of just 'Internet'.

Past tense issue

× Yes, as I remember I usually went to libraries because my mother works as a library worker.

Yes, as I remember, I usually went to libraries because my mother worked as a library worker.

The sentence mixes past and present tense incorrectly. Since the action refers to the past, 'works' should be 'worked' to maintain past tense consistency. Suggestion: Use past tense verbs when describing past events.

Third person singular issue

× She sit in reception and when I was a kid I usually went to library with her.

She sat at the reception, and when I was a kid, I usually went to the library with her.

'Sit' should be in past tense 'sat' to match the past context. Also, 'in reception' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'at the reception'. 'To library' requires the definite article 'the library'. Suggestions: Use past tense verbs for past events, correct prepositions, and include articles where necessary.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× She sit in reception and when I was a kid I usually went to library with her.

She sat at the reception, and when I was a kid, I usually went to the library with her.

The phrase 'in reception' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'at the reception'. Also, 'to library' needs the definite article 'the'. Suggestion: Use 'at the reception' and 'to the library'.

Past tense issue

× She sit in reception and when I was a kid I usually went to library with her.

She sat at the reception, and when I was a kid, I usually went to the library with her.

The verb 'sit' should be in past tense 'sat' to match the past time frame. Suggestion: Use past tense verbs when describing past events.

Past tense issue

× I don't know, maybe yes, because as far as I know, uh, Chinese kids are very clever and uh, so I think that they are went to go to libraries more than European or American kids.

I don't know, maybe yes, because as far as I know, Chinese kids are very clever, so I think that they go to libraries more than European or American kids.

The phrase 'they are went to go' is grammatically incorrect. 'Went' is past tense and cannot be used with 'are'. The correct form is simple present 'they go' to express habitual action. Also, 'to go to libraries' is redundant after 'they go to libraries'. Suggestion: Use simple present tense for habitual actions and avoid redundant phrases.
