The same meaning can be expressed in different ways, therefore when I correct people's writing, I try to correct as little as I can as long as they do not have grammatical mistakes. Some sentences don't have basic mistakes, and they are just not perfect, so I think I shouldn't change them because they don't have mistakes while they are just not perfect. The process of improvement should be gone through by writers. In these corrections, most of them are just slightly adjusted. We can fully understand you even if I didn't change a word, and furthermore, what I have changed doesn't mean that the original sentences are not correct, it's just my preference.

No doubt there were many stars in the sky during summer nights and I believe there are still stars in the countryside now. Back then, not just children in my family, there were many children in my village, and about more than ten children.

I don't think my English is good because so far I can't speak it fluently. If you talk to me in English, I will get stuck in our conversation. I can only speak simple sentences, and very slowly. It often happens to me that I don't know how to express my thoughts during conversations.

Yes, life with no goals is really terrible, therefore I often keep having goals in every period of my life.

Canada always leaves me an impression that it is not too hot even if it is in summer. I didn't expect where it could constantly be over 35 degrees Celsius before you told me.

The reason that I replied to you so late is that we held a ginger planting class for some farmers in another city during the past few days. I will send you some videos about this training.

The same meaning can be expressed in different ways, therefore when I correct people's writing, I try to correct as little as I can as long as they do not have grammatical mistakes.

This is probably okay, and in the spirit of your text I will avoid correcting it :) I definitely would say to someone "you have a mistake here". But it would be safer to say "as long as it [their writing] does not have mistakes" or "as long as they have not made mistakes".

Some sentences don't have basic mistakes, and they are just not perfect, so I think I shouldn't change them because they don't have mistakes while, they are just not perfect.

"while" doesn't really seem to fit in here. Possibly you mean something like "because, while they are not perfect, they don't have mistakes"?

The process of improvement should be gone through by writers.

It sounds a little strange to have this in passive voice, but it's okay. "Writers should go through" would be better.

I'm really not sure what you're trying to say here. Maybe something like "Back then, there weren't just the children in my family, but many other children in my village, probably more than ten."?

More natural to simply say "I often don't know how" :)

Yes, life with no goals is really terrible, therefore I often keepmake sure I havinge goals in every period of my life.

I think this might be the closest to what you mean. Present progressive is a very strange choice of tense here.

This isn't terrible without the preposition, but it sounds much better with it.

So “they “ is not suitable here.

I was not sure if it was correct here when I wrote it. I was trying to say 而 in English back then.

Back then, the children who camped with me were not only the children in my family, but also the children in my village, and there were about more than ten children who were at a similar age in total.
