Hello there!

Welcome to the forum. I'll do my best to provide a comprehensive feedback.

First and foremost, I appreciate the way that you had examples in the fabrics of your essay. Doing this will help you make concrete the substantiation that you had throughout the essay. In the long-run, this will be better to create firmer arguments that'll strengthen your overall writing techniques.

To improve your writing, I think that the focus should be based more on the structure and the forms that you were incorporating/using throughout the essay. If you can use more appropriate forms, you'll be able to concretely grasp an academic tone that's truly beneficial for you.

Let's take a look at your essay - I would revise the initial portions as:

... spending time of people has significantly changed than was in decades ago compared to a decade ago. ... outside of home and ..., I think. due to several factors.

Nowadays, m Many people are getting busyier than ever before. There are ... in technology. Due to rapid developments in of technology, sometimes people are getting struggleding with their jobs more than ... advancement. due to technological adaptation.

In terms of the content of your essay, I suggest trying to focus and give more of a concrete thesis to follow. It's quite unclear throughout - and until the end - what specifically you were trying to mention in your content. If you can clear this out from the beginning, you'll have more of a strategic approach to writing.

Best of luck in your writing endeavors as always.
