However, these days, the temperature fluctuates a lot throughout the day. Because of that, I have had a sinus cold for four days. Sometimes I took some rock salt and rested when I was suffering from a stuffy nose.
I wanted to be a scientist or a farmer since I was six years old. I'm curious about many things. I like to learn and experience on my own. I think I'm already a farmer because I've planted rice in the field, and I've sown and grown various vegetables in the garden when I was a child.

Here are the corrections:
Original:
I wanted to be a scientist or a farmer since I was six years old.
Corrected:
✅ I have wanted to be a scientist or a farmer since I was six years old.
Explanation:
Use the present perfect tense ("have wanted") when talking about something that started in the past and continues to the present.
Original:
I'm curious about many things.
Corrected:
✅ I'm curious about many things.
Explanation:
No correction needed — this sentence is clear and correct.
Original:
I like to learn and experience on my own.
Corrected:
✅ I like to learn and try things on my own.
Explanation:
“Experience” is a noun. Here, you need a verb → “try” fits better with “learn.”
Original:
I think I'm already a farmer because I've planted rice in the field, and I've sown and grown various vegetables in the garden when I was a child.
Corrected:
✅ I think I'm already a farmer because I planted rice in the field and grew various vegetables in the garden when I was a child.
Explanation:
Mixing present perfect ("I’ve planted") with past time markers ("when I was a child") is incorrect. Use simple past for actions that are clearly in the past.
Original:
However, these days, the temperature fluctuates a lot throughout the day.
Corrected:
✅ These days, the temperature fluctuates a lot throughout the day.
Explanation:
“However” is not necessary here unless you’re contrasting it with a previous idea. Removing it makes the sentence smoother.
Original:
Because of that, I have had a sinus cold for four days.
Corrected:
✅ Because of that, I’ve had a sinus cold for four days.
Explanation:
Contraction ("I’ve") is more natural in informal writing. The sentence is otherwise correct.
Original:
Sometimes I took some rock salt and rested when I was suffering from a stuffy nose.
Corrected:
✅ Sometimes I took rock salt and rested when I had a stuffy nose.
Explanation:
-
“Some” is not needed before "rock salt" here.
-
“Suffering from” is formal. “Had a stuffy nose” is simpler and more natural.
