My studies keeps me very busy.
should be
My studies keep me very busy.
"Studies" are plural, and "keep" refers to "studies".


My likings are baseball and basketball.
This is technically correct, but sounds awkward. It would be better to say: "I like baseball and basketball."

My family has a father, a mother, two sisters and me.
This is fine.

I have an interesting teacher, though she is sometimes a severe teacher to us.
This, again, is awkward. Try: "I have a teacher who is interesting, but sometimes severe to us."

Also, in your question, it should be "there are", not "their are".

Hope this helps!

EDIT: I like baseball and basketball but I favourite my famlily.
should be:
I like baseball and basketball, but I prefer my family.
or
I like baseball and basketball, but my favourite thing to do is spending time with my family.

My studies keeps me very busy.
This sentence refers to studies (plural) so the word after it should not have an s (keeps should be keep).
Therefore the correct sentence being: My studies keep me very busy.

My likings are baseball and basketball.
This sentence seems okay to me, but maybe it should be rephrased as "I like baseball and basketball". Sometimes its better to stick to simplicity.

My family has a father, a mother, two sisters and me.
Again, maybe a rephrased version would sound better: My family consists of my father, mother, two sisters and me.

I have an interesting teacher, though she is sometimes a severe teacher to us.
This sentence seems wrong, but I just can't put my finger on it. Rephrase as: I have an interesting teacher, but she can be severe sometimes.
I did notice that at first you used "I" then you used "us". If possible try to use just one.

I like baseball and basketball but I favourite my famlily.
A little awkward if you ask me. Probably should be written as "I like baseball and basketball but I prefer spending time with my family."
Your sentence makes it sound as if "family, baseball and basketball" are all in one category.
OR you can rephrase it like this: In my spare time, I like to play baseball and basktetball; but most of all I like spending quality time with my family.

All the best :)

"Where are the mistakes? My teacher said there are some mistakes.
My studies keep me very busy.
I like baseball and basketball.
I have a father, mother, 2 sisters and myself in my family.
I have an interesting teacher, though she is sometimes severe."

"I like baseball and basketball, but my favourite thing is spending time with my family." I am not sure, but I think this is what you meant by your added comment.

Try this:

My studies keep me very busy. (keep, not keeps)

I like baseball and basketball. ( i don't think likings is a word)

My family has my father, my mother, my two sisters and myself. (myself instead of me, i think me is wrong, anyway, myself sounds better)

I have an interesting teacher, although she is sometimes severe. (although instead of though, don't know why but, once again, it sounds better, cut out some unnecessary words)

My 10 3 hundred and sixty 5 days old loves her instructor of this 3 hundred and sixty 5 days, and so does my 8 3 hundred and sixty 5 days old son. i'm happy even as that takes position which does no longer advise I continuously trust their instructor yet, again, I shop my mouth close in view that "the youngsters are bringing living house strong document playing cards". I shop in ideas even as i replaced into their age, we had our basic instructor as a lot as extreme college. i'm in person-friendly words 40 yet grew up in Germany. imagine, a similar "classmates" up till commencement ! It replaced into like going to varsity ! certain, i replaced into and had to be, connected to my instructors !! LOL ! clarify on your son, that it "hurts" now, and that it's not his fault in any respect ! perchance, they could change emails ?
