× One should know the basic geography so when a person will travel or visit places when she's knowledgeable with geography, she will be able to relate and the experience is much.

✓ One should know basic geography so when a person travels or visits places and is knowledgeable about geography, she will be able to relate and the experience will be much better.

The sentence incorrectly uses 'will' after 'when' which is not standard in English; after 'when', the present simple tense is used to refer to future events. Also, 'knowledgeable with' should be 'knowledgeable about'. The phrase 'the experience is much' is incomplete and unclear; it should specify 'the experience will be much better' to convey the intended meaning.

× Yes, I've learned geography when I was in first year high school.

✓ Yes, I learned geography when I was in first year high school.

The present perfect tense 'I've learned' is not appropriate with a specific past time expression 'when I was in first year high school'. The simple past tense 'I learned' should be used to indicate a completed action at a definite time in the past.

× I remember our teacher was so diligent when she was teaching us regarding geography and even if I'm not into geography the way she taught us it was interesting and fun.

✓ I remember our teacher was so diligent when she was teaching us about geography, and even though I'm not into geography, the way she taught us was interesting and fun.

The preposition 'regarding' is less natural here; 'teaching us about geography' is more appropriate. Also, 'even if' should be 'even though' to express contrast. A comma is needed before 'and' to separate clauses. The phrase 'the way she taught us it was interesting' is awkward; it should be 'the way she taught us was interesting'.

× Although I'm not interested in being a geography teacher, I believe learning the basic of geography is important when you are fond of traveling.

✓ Although I'm not interested in being a geography teacher, I believe learning the basics of geography is important when you are fond of traveling.

The phrase 'the basic of geography' is incorrect; it should be 'the basics of geography' because 'basics' is plural and refers to fundamental principles. This is a quantifier and noun agreement issue.

× Yes, I like to learn more about the geography of other countries because it helps to open my mind and immerse myself when I travel and visit the particular country if I know geography.

✓ Yes, I like learning more about the geography of other countries because it helps open my mind and immerse myself when I travel and visit a particular country if I know its geography.

After 'like', the gerund form 'learning' is more natural than the infinitive 'to learn' when expressing enjoyment. Also, 'helps to open' can be simplified to 'helps open'. 'The particular country' is awkward; 'a particular country' is better. Adding 'its' before 'geography' clarifies possession.
