× I often go to the library. I usually go to times a week and borrow a variety of books.
✓ I often go to the library. I usually go two times a week and borrow a variety of books.
The original sentence 'go to times a week' is missing a numeral or quantifier before 'times', causing a present tense expression to be incomplete. Use a quantifier or number (e.g., 'two times a week' or 'twice a week') to make the frequency explicit and grammatically correct.
× Also library has many events such as book club that I participate in.
✓ Also, the library has many events such as a book club that I participate in.
The noun 'library' needs the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific place known in context. 'Book club' should be preceded by an indefinite article 'a' as one example of events. Add commas for clarity.
× I like meeting people and discuss the new books with them.
✓ I like meeting people and discussing the new books with them.
After 'like', when linking two verbs in parallel construction, the verbs should share the same form. 'Meeting' is a gerund; therefore 'discuss' should be changed to the gerund 'discussing' to maintain parallel structure.
× I scam a scan books and borrow a variety of books.
✓ I scan books and borrow a variety of books.
'Scam a scan' appears to be a mispronunciation or repetition. Use the simple present 'scan' to describe habitual actions. Keep tense consistent: 'scan' and 'borrow' are both simple present.
× I enjoy meeting uh people and discuss new books with them.
✓ I enjoy meeting people and discussing new books with them.
After 'enjoy', use the gerund form for following verbs. 'Discuss' should be changed to 'discussing' to match 'meeting' and maintain grammatical parallelism.
× Yes, my mom used to take me to the library when I was a a small child.
✓ Yes, my mom used to take me to the library when I was a small child.
There is a repeated article 'a a' and the past habitual 'used to take' is correct. Remove the duplicate 'a' to correct the sentence.
× I used to go to the story time events and listen to the books.
✓ I used to go to the storytime events and listen to the stories.
'Used to' correctly indicates past habitual action. 'Story time' is commonly written as one word 'storytime' or hyphenated; more importantly, 'listen to the books' is awkward — native speakers 'listen to stories' or 'listen to books being read'. Use 'stories' for natural phrasing.
× Also there are were some events for children in the library.
✓ Also, there were some events for children in the library.
The original mixes present 'are' with past 'were'. Since the previous sentence uses 'used to' (past), keep consistent past tense and use 'there were'. Remove the incorrect verb 'are'.
× Yes, library is a common place for the kids to go and to read books and participate in the children events and do play dates inside of the library.
✓ Yes, the library is a common place for kids to go to read books, participate in children's events, and have playdates inside the library.
Use the definite article 'the' before 'library' when referring to a specific place. 'The kids' is unnecessary; use 'kids' or 'children'. 'Children events' should be 'children's events' (possessive) and 'play dates' is commonly one word 'playdates'. Reorder some phrases for natural English: 'go to read' becomes 'go to read books', use parallel verbs 'read', 'participate', and 'have'. Also remove 'inside of' to the simpler 'inside' or omit it as 'in the library'.
