× Well, that really depends on what kind of information I'm searching for.

✓ Well, that really depends on what kind of information I search for.

In English (Sri Lanka), when expressing habitual actions or general truths, the simple present tense 'search' is preferred over the present continuous 'am searching'. Here, the student talks about a general habit, so 'search' is more appropriate.

× to maintain my contacts with family and to stay updated about events.

✓ to maintain my contacts with family and to stay updated on events.

The correct preposition to use with 'stay updated' is 'on' rather than 'about' in English (Sri Lanka). 'Stay updated on events' is the standard collocation.

× after I recently updated my Facebook and Instagram apps recently, I've noticed they have made some changes in the security area, uh, enhancing the thoroughness of security and also they have changed how they cover photo appear in the Facebook as well.

✓ after I recently updated my Facebook and Instagram apps, I've noticed they have made some changes to the security area, enhancing the thoroughness of security, and also they have changed how the cover photo appears on Facebook as well.

In English (Sri Lanka), the correct preposition is 'to' when referring to changes made to something. Also, 'cover photo' needs the definite article 'the'. The verb 'appear' should be in third person singular 'appears' to agree with 'cover photo'. The preposition 'on' is used with 'Facebook' when referring to content appearing on the platform.

× they have changed how they cover photo appear in the Facebook as well.

✓ they have changed how the cover photo appears on Facebook as well.

The subject 'cover photo' is singular, so the verb must be in third person singular form 'appears' in English (Sri Lanka). Also, 'the' is needed before 'cover photo' and 'on' is the correct preposition with 'Facebook'.

× In my country, but I noticed was social media platforms and websites are much popular among people than other educational and informative websites.

✓ In my country, I have noticed that social media platforms and websites are much more popular among people than other educational and informative websites.

The original sentence has a confusing structure with an unnecessary 'but' and missing words. In English (Sri Lanka), the sentence should be clear and complete, so 'I have noticed that' introduces the observation properly. Also, 'much more popular' is the correct comparative form.

× people are more tend to entertain themselves rather than collecting information and being updated.

✓ people tend to entertain themselves more rather than collecting information and staying updated.

In English (Sri Lanka), 'tend to' is followed directly by the base verb without 'more'. The adverb 'more' should come after the verb phrase to indicate degree. Also, 'staying updated' is more natural than 'being updated' in this context.
