Could you check my sentences... Grammatically...

I have made some sentences related to IELTS Speaking Part 2 Topics & Questions. They are suitable for the following questions:

Describe a television program that you like to watch.
You should say:
what program it is
what the program is about
how often do you watch it
and explain why you like watching this program.

Well, most people watch TV all around the world. Some of them like watching it to get some useful information. Others watch it to kill time for fun. As for me, I used to watch it when I was a teenager. I mostly watched sports, documentaries, sitcoms, news, cartoons, and film channels. When it came to my favorite TV program, it was film channels because I liked watching them. So, I usually watched adventure films. Because this kind of film built our desire to search for more in our lives. I suppose I watched them 3 or 4 times a week. Most of them were suitable for all ages, I thought so. Also, I can say that it was an enjoyable pastime. Nowadays, honestly, I don’t watch TV because I found that the Internet is full of better material, I’ve been streaming videos, which is a much more efficient way to enhance my knowledge. I only watch TV when I am a guest at someone’s home.

I suggest that for the time being you stick to saying you "wrote" some sentences.

Say:

Describe a television program you like to watch.

Or:

Describe a television program you like.

While the use of "that" is not ungrammatical, it's not necessary.

What do you mean by "given questions"?

You could say you did your best. (If that's what you mean.)

*how often you watch it
*why you like it

Apparently, you watched pretty much everything that was on -- including three or four adventure films a week.

Apparently, you don't agree with my suggestions.

That's better phrased than the original.

New title: TV.

As for me, I used to watch TV when I was a teenager. So, I can say that I usually watched TV shows such as traveling, sports, news, documentaries and cartoons. But, the most favourite one was sports. I usually watched them about two times a week. In that program, I mostly liked watching football because it was one of the most favourite types of sports for me. So, they usually took place at the weekends. Also, I can say that it was an enjoyable pastime.

Nowadays, honestly, I don’t watch TV programs because I found that the Internet is full of better material, I’ve been streaming videos, which is a much more efficient way to enhance my knowledge and kill your spare time. I only watch TV programs when I am a guest at someone’s home.

Still not good enough?

As for me, I used to watch TV often when I was a teenager. So, I can say that I usually watched TV shows programs such as those on traveling, sports, news, documentaries and cartoons. But, the my most favourite one was sports. I usually watched them about two times (twice) a week. In that program, I mostly particularly liked watching football because it was one of the most favourite types of sports for me my favourite sport.. So, They usually took place at come on/are broadcast in the weekends. Also, I can say that it was an enjoyable pastime (I enjoyed watching football very much).

Nowadays, honestly, I don’t watch TV programs because I found that find the internet is full of better material, I’ve been streaming videos, which is a much more efficient way to enhance of enhancing my knowledge and killing your spare time. I only watch TV programs when I am a guest (visitor) at someone’s home.

Still not good enough?

I would say, "My most favorite thing was sports." (I'm okay with "guest" there.)

It has to be good enough for you, not me.

When Tarheel said "it has to be good enough for you", he meant "it has to satisfy you/you have to be happy with it yourself", not that your English is not good enough (a good teacher would not say that).

Or you can write like this as well:
Many people around the world enjoy watching TV. Some watch it to gain useful information, while others watch it for entertainment or to pass the time. When I was a teenager, I used to watch various types of programs, such as sports, documentaries, sitcoms, news, cartoons, and films. My favorite TV programs were film channels, particularly adventure films because they fueled my desire to explore and discover more in life. I think I watched these films about 3 or 4 times a week, and most of them seemed suitable for all ages. It was a truly enjoyable pastime.
However, nowadays, I don’t watch TV as much because I find the internet to be a more valuable source of information and entertainment. I prefer streaming videos, which I believe is a more efficient way to expand my knowledge. The only time I watch TV now is when I'm a guest at someone's home.

I thought numbers less than ten should be written in words.
