Grammar

Present tense issue

× At the present, I'm not good at speaking English, so I try to improve my English.

At present, I'm not good at speaking English, so I am trying to improve my English.

The phrase 'At the present' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'At present'. Also, 'I try to improve my English' should be in the present continuous tense 'I am trying to improve my English' to indicate an ongoing action.

Future tense issue

× After taking this exam, I will learn it during my whole life, and also I would like to learn more.

After taking this exam, I will continue learning it throughout my whole life, and I would also like to learn more.

The phrase 'I will learn it during my whole life' is awkward and incorrect. The correct expression is 'I will continue learning it throughout my whole life' to express a lifelong ongoing action. Also, 'and also I would like to learn more' is better as 'and I would also like to learn more' for smoother conjunction.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× But sometimes when I try to figure out them all, I will feel a sense of treatment and feel proud.

But sometimes when I try to figure them all out, I feel a sense of achievement and feel proud.

The pronoun 'them' should be placed after the verb phrase 'figure out' as 'figure them all out'. Also, 'a sense of treatment' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'a sense of achievement'. Additionally, 'I will feel' is better as 'I feel' to express a general truth or habitual feeling.

Modal verb usage

× I will decide to sign up for some classes online so I could learn it effectively.

I will decide to sign up for some classes online so I can learn it effectively.

The modal verb 'could' is incorrect here because it expresses past ability or conditional mood. The correct modal verb is 'can' to express ability in the future or present context.
