× I never did puzzle in my youngster era because I found puzzles kind of boring thing and also I have another interest when I was a kid like playing video games or playing computers.
✓ I never did puzzles in my childhood because I found puzzles kind of boring and also I had other interests when I was a kid like playing video games or using computers.
The word 'puzzle' should be plural 'puzzles' because it refers to the general activity. 'Youngster era' is unnatural; 'childhood' is the correct term. 'Boring thing' should be 'boring' or 'a boring thing'. 'I have another interest' should be past tense 'I had other interests' to match the past time frame. 'Playing computers' is incorrect; it should be 'using computers'. These corrections improve singular/plural usage and verb tense consistency.
× I'm still speaking. I'm never did puzzle before when I was a kid until uh, recently, I never did uh, any puzzle because I found it kind of boring thing and also it spent a lot of time to finish a puzzle.
✓ I never did puzzles when I was a kid until, uh, recently. I never did any puzzles because I found them kind of boring and they took a lot of time to finish.
'I'm still speaking' is irrelevant and should be removed. 'I'm never did' is incorrect; 'I never did' is correct. 'Puzzle' should be plural 'puzzles'. 'Boring thing' should be 'boring'. 'It spent a lot of time' is incorrect; 'they took a lot of time' is correct because puzzles are plural. These corrections fix past tense usage and plural forms.
× If I had to choose, I will choose the number puzzle because I love math and I love things related to numbers.
✓ If I had to choose, I would choose the number puzzle because I love math and things related to numbers.
In conditional sentences with 'If I had to choose' (second conditional), the correct modal verb is 'would' not 'will'. This corrects the modal verb usage to match the conditional mood.
× I think the puzzle numbers, uh, will be more difficult because it's related to the numbers. Everything related to the numbers will be kind of difficult things.
✓ I think number puzzles will be more difficult because they're related to numbers. Everything related to numbers can be kind of difficult.
'Puzzle numbers' is incorrect; it should be 'number puzzles'. 'It's' should be 'they're' to agree with plural 'puzzles'. 'Difficult things' is unnatural; 'difficult' alone suffices. These corrections fix singular/plural agreement and improve natural phrasing.
× Yes, because it's maintain their brain, keep active. Uh, let's say uh, people who already retired from their job or their office will often get bored and puzzle keeps their brain uh, maintained, activate and trigger.
✓ Yes, because it helps maintain their brain and keep it active. Let's say people who have already retired from their jobs or offices often get bored, and puzzles keep their brains maintained, active, and stimulated.
'It's maintain' is incorrect; it should be 'it helps maintain'. 'Keep active' needs an object: 'keep it active'. 'People who already retired' should be 'people who have already retired' (present perfect). 'Puzzle keeps' should be 'puzzles keep' to agree in number. 'Maintained, activate and trigger' is incorrect; 'maintained, active, and stimulated' is correct adjective usage. These corrections fix verb forms, subject-verb agreement, and improve clarity.
