× Recently I use YouTube to watching videos.
✓ Recently I have been using YouTube to watch videos.
The student used simple present 'use' and an incorrect infinitive form 'to watching'. The context 'recently' calls for present perfect continuous or present perfect (have been using/have used). Also after 'to' should be the base verb 'watch'. Suggestion: use 'have been using' for ongoing recent activity and 'to watch' as the correct verb form.
× I really like to watch videos about some vlogs or something.
✓ I really like watching vlogs and similar videos.
The phrase 'about some vlogs or something' is vague and unidiomatic. Use the gerund 'watching' after 'like' when expressing preference. Also simplify 'or something' to 'and similar videos' for clarity. Suggestion: say 'I really like watching vlogs and similar videos.'
× Nowadays, are you really interested in like, studying English?
✓ Nowadays, I am really interested in studying English.
The student produced a question form 'are you' instead of making a statement about themselves; also filler 'like' is unnecessary. The question asked what kinds of apps they are interested in, so a statement about their interests is appropriate. Use 'interested in studying English' with correct subject-verb order. Suggestion: remove 'like' and use a declarative sentence.
× Yeah, because I prepare this test for a month and I really wants to improve my English skills.
✓ Yeah, because I have been preparing for this test for a month and I really want to improve my English skills.
Two errors: tense and subject-verb agreement. 'Prepare this test for a month' should be present perfect continuous 'have been preparing' to show an action continuing up to now. Also 'wants' is third person singular form but the subject is 'I', so it should be 'want'. Suggestion: use 'I have been preparing for this test for a month and I really want to improve my English skills.'
× I just checking out some rankings on the site or looking for advertisement and download it.
✓ I just check out some rankings on the site or look for advertisements and download them.
The student mixed verb forms. After subject 'I' use base forms with correct parallel structure: 'check' and 'look' (or 'am checking' and 'am looking' if continuous). Also 'advertisement' should be plural 'advertisements' and pronoun must agree: 'download them'. Suggestion: use either present simple for habitual actions or present continuous for ongoing actions and keep parallel verbs and plural agreement.
× I like to use an app that helps me study English more conveniently.
✓ I would like to use an app that helps me study English more conveniently.
The original is grammatically acceptable but sounds unnatural for stating a future preference. Using 'I would like to' is more polite and typical when describing preferred future apps. No article error per se, but to better fit the question about future preference, change 'I like to use' to 'I would like to use'. Suggestion: use 'I would like to use an app that helps me study English more conveniently.'
× For example, uh, the free AI tutor app and we can practice English speaking for free.
✓ For example, a free AI tutor app where we can practice speaking English for free.
This is a sentence fragment and coordination error: 'For example, the free AI tutor app and we can...' lacks a main verb linking the ideas. Make it a single cohesive clause: 'a free AI tutor app where we can practice speaking English for free.' Also 'speaking English' preferred order is 'speaking English' or 'English speaking' -> 'speaking English'. Suggestion: use 'where' to connect the example app with its function and reorder to 'practice speaking English.'
