Grammar

Present tense issue

× Yes, I'm quite interested in knowing the recent news because it helps me to stay updated what's going on in the global platforms and helps to improve my knowledge about the community and the world.

Yes, I'm quite interested in recent news because it helps me stay updated on what is going on globally and improves my knowledge about the community and the world.

The original mixes progressive 'knowing' unnecessarily and misuses 'what's' clause after 'stay updated'. Use present simple 'is' in the embedded clause and 'on' after 'updated'. Also shorten 'global platforms' to 'globally' for natural phrasing; use parallel verbs 'helps me stay' and 'improves' to match subject. Suggestion: use concise present simple for general facts and correct preposition 'on'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× For instance, I follow both local news for practical updates like traffic and weather.

For instance, I follow both local and national news for practical updates like traffic and weather.

The phrase 'follow both local news' is incomplete: 'both' needs two parallel items. Add 'and national' to complete the pair. Also 'follow local news' is correct without extra prepositions. Suggestion: ensure 'both' is followed by two coordinated items.

Verb + -ing form

× I usually find news from the TV channels such as Aaj Tak, Canada News or I will also use an alternative option of going to YouTube and watch the recent news that are going across the globe to stay updated and know about the international or global events, what's going on in the world right now.

I usually get news from TV channels such as Aaj Tak and Canada News, or I go to YouTube to watch recent news from around the world to stay updated about international events.

'Find news' is awkward; 'get news' or 'watch news' is natural. Avoid 'will' for habitual actions; use present simple 'go'. 'Alternative option of going to' is wordy—use 'go to' or 'use'. 'Recent news that are going across the globe' is ungrammatical; use 'recent news from around the world'. Remove redundant phrases like 'know about' and 'what's going on in the world right now' when 'stay updated about international events' covers it. Use plural agreement 'news' as uncountable and maintain present simple for habits.

Modal verb usage

× Honestly, no, I wouldn't like to be a journalist because this is a very demanding job and you need to be on the ground level to outsource the news.

Honestly, no, I wouldn't like to be a journalist because it is a very demanding job and you need to be on the ground to gather news.

'Wouldn't like' is acceptable for conditional preference but 'wouldn't like to be' fits spoken registers. 'On the ground level' is awkward; use 'on the ground'. 'Outsource the news' is incorrect—journalists 'gather' or 'report' news. Change to 'gather news' to match meaning. Use 'it is' instead of 'this is' for general statement clarity.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× For instance, I am very uncomfortable for facing the cameras and speaking very confidently as they do it's.

For instance, I am very uncomfortable facing the cameras and speaking very confidently as they do.

'Uncomfortable for facing' is incorrect; use 'uncomfortable facing' or 'uncomfortable about facing'. The ending 'it's' is extraneous and incorrect; remove it. Maintain parallel gerunds 'facing' and 'speaking'. Suggestion: use 'uncomfortable facing the camera and speaking confidently like them.'

Present tense issue

× Yes, I read news every morning I today I read about uh, the recent draw of Canadian Express Entry that was 8000 invitations in Canadian experience class in the Canadian immigration news and in Indian news.

Yes, I read the news every morning. Today I read about the recent Canadian Express Entry draw that issued 8,000 invitations for the Canadian Experience Class in the Canadian immigration news, and I also saw related reports in Indian news.

Run-on sentence and tense/wording problems. Use present simple 'read the news every morning' for habitual action. 'I today I read' is redundant—split into two sentences and use 'Today I read about...'. Numbers should use commas and 'issued 8,000 invitations' is clearer than 'that was 8000 invitations'. Use 'for the Canadian Experience Class'. Add 'also' to indicate seeing it in Indian news. Suggestion: break long sentences, use correct noun phrases and verbs 'issued/announced'.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× We usually talk about the issues that are related to our country like our home country with my friends that are really detrimental to the society and the culture of India.

We usually talk with my friends about issues related to our home country that are really detrimental to Indian society and culture.

Awkward word order and redundant phrases. Place 'with my friends' after 'talk' and use 'issues related to our home country' rather than 'that are related to our country like our home country'. 'Detrimental to the society and the culture of India' should be 'detrimental to Indian society and culture'. Suggestion: simplify and place modifiers close to the words they modify.

Singular and plural issue

× For instance, there is a news that there is a road accident are increasing day by day.

For instance, there is news that road accidents are increasing day by day.

'News' is uncountable and should not take the indefinite article 'a'. Remove 'a'. The clause had redundant 'there is' and incorrect agreement 'road accident are'—use plural 'road accidents are'. Suggestion: avoid using 'a' with uncountable nouns and ensure subject-verb agreement.

Verb in the past participle form

× So these type of news we used to discuss.

So this type of news we used to discuss.

'These type' is incorrect; use 'this type' (singular) or change noun to plural: 'these types of news items we used to discuss.' Also 'news' is uncountable; better: 'these types of news stories' or 'this type of news'. 'Used to discuss' implies past habitual—if present habit, use 'discuss' or 'we usually discuss these types of news.' Suggestion: match singular/plural and choose correct noun forms.
