I'd like to speak English more fluently. Because I like traveling,so I need to do.

自然な表現

I'd like to speak English more fluently because I like traveling.

1. This should still be part of the sentence. The last phrase was removed because it is not necessary and makes this wordy. You can also say "I need to improve my English speaking skills because I travel a lot."
Traveling will provide you with great motivation to hone your English skills. Do you ever watch movies or listen to songs in English on YouTube to help develop your listening and speaking skills?

When I was younger I used to learn English songs by heart. Andy Willams,Pat Boone,Carpenters...Are you familiar with them ? Maybe you are young, you don't know them I guess. The funny thing is, I can still sing them. I don't sing it often though.
I've been wanting to learn it lately,but I haven't been doing it. But there's a song I like. It's Minneapolis by Springsteen. Do you know that ? I want to learn it by heart. The rhythm is old-fashioned,too. That's good. Wouldn't it be cool if an old woman sang it with the correct pronunciation ?

When I was younger, I used to learn English songs by heart. Are you familiar with Andy Williams, Pat Boone, and the Carpenters? Maybe you are young, so I guess you don't know them. The funny thing is, I can still sing their songs. I don't sing them often though.
I've been wanting to learn one lately, but I haven't been doing it. I do like a song called "Minneapolis" by Springsteen. Do you know it? I want to learn it by heart. The rhythm is old-fashioned, too. That's good. Wouldn't it be cool if an old woman sang it with the correct pronunciation?

1. Use a comma after introductory words/phrases.
2. It's better to combine these two sentences. Also, it's "the Carpenters" with "the".
3. Use conjunctions to connect phrases/clauses. "So" is a good choice here.
4. "Them" was used to refer to the artists, but in this sentence it should be the songs.
5. This should refer to "songs" which is plural, so "them" is the right choice.
6. It is not clear what "it" is referring to.
7, 11. Use a space after commas and periods.
8. It's better to combine these sentences.
9. Use quotes for song titles, movie titles, etc.
10. "It" is the right choice to refer to the song you just mentioned.
12. Use a space after a question mark, but not before.
That sounds wonderful. Those artists are classics, and learning songs can really help with pronunciation. It would be very cool if you sang it with clear pronunciation. Do you plan to practice a little each day to learn the song?

Actually, I try to sing it every day. I know the lyrics and am trying to remember the sounds.English is different because there are many unpronounced sounds. I like movies too. We have cable TV so we can watch a lot of programs.
But I don't understand, so I rely on the subtitle and just enjoy the movie. As for hearing practice, I can find on YouTube. I take an English class once a week. It's for hearing and speaking. The teacher speaks English clearly but a little faster for me. I'm pleased the teacher and classmates. I'm happy now.

Actually, I try to sing it every day. I know the lyrics and am trying to remember the sounds. English is different because there are many unpronounced letters. I like movies too. We have cable TV so we can watch a lot of programs, but I don't understand, so I rely on    subtitles and just enjoy watching. As for listening practice, I can find resources on YouTube. I take an English class once a week. It's for listening and speaking. The teacher speaks English clearly but a little too fast for me. I'm pleased with my teacher and classmates. I'm happy now.

1. Use a space after periods and commas.
2. You mean "letters". All "sounds" are pronounced, but some "letters" in a word are not.
3. Avoid starting sentences with conjunctions, especially in formal and academic settings.
4. Don't use "the" when generalizing.
5. Use the plural form when generalizing or when there's more than one.
6. You can say "movies" to refer to any movie and not a particular one, but you can also say "watching" which would include TV programs, news, music videos, etc. (the ones that are not movies).
7, 9. "Listening" and "hearing" are different. "Listening" is the right choice here.
8. "Find" needs an object.
10. "Faster" is misused here.
11. "Pleased" is often followed by "with".
12. "My" is the right choice because you're specifically referring to your teacher and classmates.
That sounds great. You're practicing in many good ways, and your effort will help you improve steadily. Watching movies with subtitles is also a useful step for learning. What kind of movies do you enjoy the most?

My favorite is a British drama series called Downton Abbey. Are you familiar with it ? It was watched all over the world. Downton Abbey is a name of Manor House. It's the story of the nobles and servants who live in there. Each life is carefully depicted. Each characters is fascinating. This drama started more than 10 years ago.
Why do you think it's funny to talk about nobility ?said my son to me. He was totally into it too. I olso love French mysteries. I watch them every nights. I like the fast tempo.

My son asked me why it's funny to talk about nobility. He was totally into it too. I also love French mysteries. I watch them every night. I like the fast tempo.

1. Place titles in quotes.
2. Don't use a space after question marks.
3. It is correct that it was "watched" all over the world, but that was because it was "popular".
4. Use "the" if referring to something specific or something that was mentioned previously.
5. Most common nouns need articles/determiners.
6. This is not a proper noun so there's no need to capitalize it.
7. There's no need for a preposition here.
8. "Character" is the right word choice.
9. This can be combined with the previous sentence using a conjunction.
10. This needs rephrasing to correct the construction.
11. Spelling mistake.
12. "Every" is used with singular nouns.
That sounds very interesting, and "Downton Abbey" is famous around the world. British dramas can also help improve your listening skills because of the accent. Do you think watching without subtitles would help you improve your English more?

Yes,if I could watch the movie with English subtitles for English dialogue, it's great. But I usually watch one with Japanese subtitles. I'm looking for the good video in YouTube. But it's hard to find it. I thought about signing up for this app, but I can't spent any more money.This is great that the human answer s, but it's so expensive. I'm sorry. The best way to improve my English is practicing every day, I know. So I'll do my very best. Thanks for good experience.

1. Use a space after commas and periods.

4, 8, 16. Avoid starting sentences with conjunctions.
5. You are referring to good videos in general, not a specific one, so "the" is misused.
