Day 2: Consistency vs Efficiency

There's a youtuber that I really look up to, his name is Livakivi. He uploads videos about his Japanese learning. One of his quotes that I really like is "focus in being consistent as possible rather than fast as possible". Thanks to that quote I've been studying my anki flashcards and recording audio diary entries every day since this year started. And now I'm also writing every single day.

Corrections

There's a youtuber that I really look up to, h. His name is Livakivi.

"His name is Livakivi" should be a separate sentence. You could also say, "There's a youtuber that I really look up to, Livakivi".

One of his quotes that I really like is, "focus in being consistent as possible rather than fast as possible".

Keep up the good work!

I'll try to remember that for my next post

Day 2: Consistency vs Efficiency

There's a youtuber that I really look up to, his name is called Livakivi.

Just a slight grammatical tweak--you used a comma to connect two independent clauses (i.e., phrases that could be complete sentences all on their own). At least in English, independent clauses have to be split into two sentences and connected with a period or connected with a semi-colon, a colon, or a hyphen (depending on the context). So you could have written "There's a youtuber that I really look I up to--his name is Livakivi" or "There's a youtuber that I really look I up to; his name is Livakivi". But to me it sounds most natural as a single sentence like "There's a youtuber that I really look I up to named/called Livakivi" or "There's a youtuber that I really look I up to whose name is Livakivi". Honestly, this is me getting really picky with grammar but your English seems advanced enough that I feel like I can give you suggestions that go beyond comprehensibility and relate to sounding natural/using particular grammar rules.

Thank you for your explanation, I'll try to remember that. I'll try to connect my sentences to make just one sentence.

There's a youtuber that I really look up to, his name is Livakivi.

He uploads videos about his Japanese learningm, learning Japanese.

You can't always turn a verb in present progressive into a noun. As an example, you can say "his training", but in the case of "learning" you can't.

One of his quotes that I really like is "focus ion being as consistent as possible rather than as fast as possible".

1. In English we say, "focus on" something, rather than "in"
2. In this case, you need to add as both before and after the verb
