Actually, I'd like to use the word BEING in the sentence. So, please try to correct these sentences with reference to word "BEING".
These sentences don't work with "being."
I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
