× I like geography a lot since I was a child and I still like it a lot because it teaches me about humanities, about the whole world and also the international relations due to the boundaries between different plates.
✓ I have liked geography a lot since I was a child and I still like it a lot because it teaches me about humanities, about the whole world and also international relations due to the boundaries between different plates.
The phrase 'I like geography a lot since I was a child' incorrectly uses the simple present tense 'like' with a time expression 'since I was a child' which requires the present perfect tense to indicate an action continuing from the past to the present. Therefore, 'I have liked' is correct.
× Geography is useful in many perspectives, but for me the most useful part is it can teach people how to identify different locations around the world and help people to recognize different parts of the world.
✓ Geography is useful from many perspectives, but for me the most useful part is that it can teach people how to identify different locations around the world and help people recognize different parts of the world.
The phrase 'useful in many perspectives' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'from' when referring to perspectives. Also, 'help people to recognize' is better as 'help people recognize' because 'help' is followed by the base form of the verb without 'to'. Additionally, 'is it can teach' is ungrammatical; it should be 'is that it can teach' to introduce the clause properly.
× I've learned geography when I was in high school and I learned a lot about the water cycle, photosynthesis and different transportation systems in the under the Hong Kong society.
✓ I learned geography when I was in high school and I learned a lot about the water cycle, photosynthesis and different transportation systems in Hong Kong society.
The present perfect 'I've learned' is incorrectly used with a specific past time 'when I was in high school'; simple past 'I learned' is appropriate. Also, the phrase 'in the under the Hong Kong society' is ungrammatical; it should be 'in Hong Kong society' without 'the under the'.
× I actually have an interest in being a geography teacher, but I didn't learn comprehensively when I was in high school, so maybe if I have to be a geography teacher, I need to delve deep in those related knowledge at first.
✓ I actually have an interest in being a geography teacher, but I didn't learn comprehensively when I was in high school, so maybe if I have to be a geography teacher, I need to delve deeply into that related knowledge first.
The phrase 'delve deep in those related knowledge' contains multiple errors: 'delve' is followed by the adverb 'deeply' not the adjective 'deep'; the preposition should be 'into' not 'in'; 'those related knowledge' is incorrect because 'knowledge' is uncountable and should be preceded by 'that' not 'those'; 'at first' is better as 'first' in this context.
× Definitely, if I learn more about the geography of other countries, I will gain more knowledge about it. And when I explore those countries, I can have a clear mindset of where to go or where should I I visit. It gives me a clear mindset of it.
✓ Definitely, if I learn more about the geography of other countries, I will gain more knowledge about it. And when I explore those countries, I can have a clear mindset of where to go or where I should visit. It gives me a clear mindset of it.
In indirect questions like 'where I should visit', the word order should be subject + verb, not verb + subject as in direct questions. Therefore, 'where should I visit' is incorrect here; it should be 'where I should visit'.
