× Where my hometown is currently located in the Tehran, the capital city of Iran and will I live in a four story apartment located in the North East part of the town, which is kind of an upper scale neighborhood.

✓ My hometown is currently located in Tehran, the capital city of Iran, and I live in a four-story apartment located in the northeast part of the town, which is kind of an upscale neighborhood.

The original sentence incorrectly uses 'Where my hometown is' instead of 'My hometown is'. Also, 'the Tehran' is incorrect because 'Tehran' as a city name does not require the definite article 'the'. The phrase 'will I live' is incorrect in this context; the present tense 'I live' is appropriate. 'Four story' should be hyphenated as 'four-story' when used as an adjective. 'North East' should be 'northeast' as one word. 'Upper scale' should be 'upscale'. These corrections fix the 'There be issue' and other grammar problems.

× Where my hometown is currently located in the Tehran, the capital city of Iran and will I live in a four story apartment located in the North East part of the town, which is kind of an upper scale neighborhood.

✓ My hometown is currently located in Tehran, the capital city of Iran, and I live in a four-story apartment located in the northeast part of the town, which is kind of an upscale neighborhood.

The definite article 'the' before 'Tehran' is incorrect because city names generally do not take 'the'. Also, 'the North East part' should be 'the northeast part' with 'northeast' as a single word and 'the' is correct here because it specifies a particular part of the town.

× You can also, uh, go for a stroll in the downtown and just enjoy the pavement cafes, uh, the white brand nightlife that, uh, uh, cultural spaces offer you.

✓ You can also go for a stroll downtown and just enjoy the pavement cafes and the vibrant nightlife that cultural spaces offer you.

The phrase 'in the downtown' is incorrect; 'downtown' is used without 'the' when referring to the central area of a city. Also, 'white brand nightlife' seems to be a mishearing or error; 'vibrant nightlife' is more appropriate. Removing unnecessary 'uh' and repeated words improves clarity.

× Well, I have lived there since I was born. I have never lived in any other parts of a town and I have. I can't envisage my life without living in the capital, which gives you a lot of facilities and amenities for living it.

✓ Well, I have lived there since I was born. I have never lived in any other part of the town. I can't envisage my life without living in the capital, which offers a lot of facilities and amenities for living.

The phrase 'any other parts of a town' should be 'any other part of the town' to refer to other areas within the same town. 'Gives you a lot of facilities and amenities for living it' is awkward; 'offers a lot of facilities and amenities for living' is clearer and grammatically correct. The present tense 'offers' is appropriate here.

× Actually, I love the hectic pace that the big towns offers you, rather than the rustic charm of the remote areas.

✓ Actually, I love the hectic pace that big towns offer you, rather than the rustic charm of remote areas.

The subject 'big towns' is plural, so the verb should be 'offer' not 'offers'. Also, 'the big towns' and 'the remote areas' can be used without 'the' when speaking generally.

× Of course, with the, all of the cultural venues and galleries and exciting, uh, theatre performances, uh, it, it is actually suitable for uh, younger people, uh, whether they want to experience the social life or have a, a artistic side, uh, of the taste, uh, therefore, it is quite good for a variety of tastes in young.

✓ Of course, with all the cultural venues, galleries, and exciting theatre performances, it is actually suitable for younger people, whether they want to experience social life or have an artistic side to their taste; therefore, it is quite good for a variety of tastes among young people.

The phrase 'the, all of the' is redundant; 'all the' is sufficient. 'A artistic' is incorrect; 'an artistic' is correct because 'artistic' begins with a vowel sound. 'A variety of tastes in young' is incomplete; it should be 'a variety of tastes among young people'. Removing filler words like 'uh' improves clarity.
