4 sentences Can you explain my mistakes. Thanks

My daughter is going to the seaside with my eldest sister. She went to swimming lessons and so she is excited to go to the seaside. (use so' to show she is excited as a consequence of the swimming lessons.  Remove 'to go to the seaside' because it is clear from context.)



Unfortunately, I have little time to spend on improving my English. (You could write 'I have little time for my English.', but it is little unclear to the reader what you mean when out of context.  I would use 'little time + infinitive + something'. Remember 'on' is a dependent preposition for the verb 'to spend'. Then after a preposition,if we use a verb, it is verb+ing).


I don't know what job to do when my son grows up a bit. There is no nursery so I will have to take care of him myself  on my own till he goes to school. (I'm not sure about the first sentence.  I think you are talking about getting a job in the future.  If you mean now, then you need to use 'until'. Also, you need to use to take care of something/someone'.  'On my own' sounds like someone is not helping you e.g. your husband.  I prefer the use of 'myself' to suggest not using other means e.g. a nursery, childminder.  It sounds more competent and less of a chore.  

I hope this helps.  Bye of now, Fiona.
