× 'For example when I have a free time I usually chat to my friend Minsa and she always give me back response with smile face emoji.'
✓ 'For example, when I have free time I usually chat with my friend Minsa and she always gives me a response with a smiley-face emoji.'
'a free time' is incorrect because "time" in this context is uncountable and does not take the indefinite article 'a'; use 'free time'. 'chat to' is nonstandard in many varieties of English for casual conversation; 'chat with' is more natural. 'give me back response' is awkward and ungrammatical; use 'gives me a response' (with correct verb form 'gives' for third person singular). 'smile face emoji' should be 'smiley-face emoji' or 'smiley emoji' and needs an article 'a'. Suggestions: remove the article before 'free time', use 'chat with', change 'give' to 'gives', use 'a response', and use 'smiley-face emoji'.'
× 'We usually talk about our interests, daily life and also about school assignment.'
✓ 'We usually talk about our interests, daily life, and also about school assignments.'
'school assignment' should be plural 'school assignments' to match the general, habitual meaning of 'we usually talk about' and to agree in number with the plural list. Also add a comma before 'and' for clarity. Suggestion: use plural 'assignments' when speaking generally about recurring topics.'
× 'We usually talk about what we like, what we do today or what will what we will do.'
✓ 'We usually talk about what we like, what we do today, or what we will do.'
The original repeats 'what' and has incorrect word order 'what will what we will do.' Remove the extra 'what' and correct to 'what we will do' for future reference. Also add a comma for list clarity. Suggestion: avoid repeated words and keep consistent tense in coordinated items.'
× 'I usually prefer to chat with a group of people because I'm a quite shy person, so that more people makes me feel better with the conversation.'
✓ 'I usually prefer to chat with a group of people because I'm quite a shy person, so having more people makes me feel more comfortable in conversation.'
'I'm a quite shy person' has incorrect article/adjective order; correct is 'quite a shy person' or better 'I'm quite shy.' 'so that' is unnecessary; use 'so' or restructure. 'more people makes' is a subject-verb agreement error: 'more people' is plural and requires 'make', but in the corrected phrasing 'having more people makes' is natural and uses singular 'having' as subject. 'feel better with the conversation' is awkward; 'feel more comfortable in conversation' is clearer. Suggestions: fix adjective order, remove 'that', ensure subject and verb agree, and use natural collocations like 'feel comfortable in conversation.'
× 'I prefer to chat, uh, via social media as I said, because I'm a quite shy person, so that it is more relaxed to me to, to communicate via social media.'
✓ 'I prefer to chat via social media, as I said, because I'm quite shy, so it is more relaxing for me to communicate that way.'
'a quite shy person' again has awkward article/adjective order; use 'quite shy' or 'quite a shy person.' 'more relaxed to me' is incorrect prepositional choice; the correct expression is 'more relaxing for me' or 'more comfortable for me.' Repetition 'to, to communicate' should be simplified. 'that way' or 'via social media' can be used at the end. Suggestions: remove filler words, fix adjective order, use 'relaxing for me' and avoid repeated words.'
× 'Sometimes, yes, but I usually avoid a conflict with my friends because I don't wanna fight with my friends. So I, uh, I try to avoid, uh, conflict.'
✓ 'Sometimes, yes, but I usually avoid conflicts with my friends because I don't want to fight with them. So I try to avoid conflict.'
'a conflict' is unnatural in this context; use plural 'conflicts' or uncountable 'conflict' when speaking generally. Repetition 'my friends' can be replaced by pronoun 'them' to avoid redundancy. 'wanna' is informal and nonstandard in writing; use 'want to'. Remove filler 'uh' for clarity. Suggestion: use 'conflicts' or 'conflict' appropriately, replace 'wanna' with 'want to', and use pronouns to avoid repetition.'
