She spoke quicker than he did. She spoke more quickly than he did. Can you enlighten this?

Because "quick" is an adjective (not an adverb), the correct sentence would be "She spoke more quickly than he did."
This is how "quicker" can be used correctly: "My sports car is quicker than your minivan."

hi! im not sure how to use "back then" ... hope u can bright me with a sentence. thanks! :)

"Back then, you used to have a lot of hair; now, you're bald."
"There weren't so many cars in our town back then."

$1/ask or $1/question

$1/question is better. (Many people don't accept "ask" as a noun, at least not in formal contexts.)

which one correct , Keeps on laughing at me or Keep on ? Kinda confuse about it

Both can be right:
She (singular) KEEPS (singular) on laughing at me.
They (plural) KEEP (plural) on laughing at me.
As a command, it should be "keep": KEEP on laughing at me; I'll prove you all wrong.

"she had a beautiful face" is that mean that now she have no beautiful face ?

"She had a beautiful face" can mean two things:
1. Her face was beautiful the last time you saw it: "I can never forget the super model: she had a beautiful face."
2. She no longer has a beautiful face.

Handicrafts products can be ______ at roadside stalls,shopping malls and at handicrafts centres. A.at B.found C.and D.but what's the answer?

B. "Found"

is this correct --> I knew many people had already made the project before me .

Yes, but we'd add "that" (only because it sounds better): "I knew that many people had already made the project before me."

which one correct : on the progress for make newest project OR on the progress to make newest project

Actually, something like "I'm making progress on my newest project" is the best way to express that idea.

http://tmblr.co/Z90tLy1J8o9f8 i dont know where is the uncorrect part in this comic , since i'm bad in error analysis (the first box, i mean. but i can catch the wrong part in box #3)

The joke/error is in box #3: "Theirs been a few thing ..." should be "There have been a few things ..."

is this correct : he can't recognize / he can't recognized / he couldn't recognize. i get confuse when talk about past tense, we must change CAN into COULD ?

"He can't recognize" and "he couldn't recognize" are both right: "can't" (and "can") is the present tense; "couldn't" (and "could") is the past tense.

which one correct --> wont or won't ? or THEY ARE ALL correct ? (i even don't know the correct one is THEY ARE ALL correct or THEY ALL ARE correct, or I can use 'both of them are correct')

We're not sure exactly what you're asking, but regarding "wont" and "won't," read this: http://bit.ly/1qx6GEB
"They are all correct." = "They're all correct." = "They all are correct." In everyday usage, they all mean the same thing.

is this correct : There's a huge differences between the before and after surgery photos. Thx !

"There are many noticeable differences between the before- and after-surgery photos."

Understand and understood ?

"Understand" is present tense: I understand calculus.
"Understood" is past tense: I understood the lesson, so the homework assignment was easy.

hi.. you're my awesome online teacher :) thank for enlightening me . my question is what the difference between : "do you saw that picture?" with "did you see that picture?"

Did you SEE the picture? "Did" is already past tense, so follow it with the base form.

1.I learned = FINISHED 2.I have learned = RECENTLY FINISHED 3.I was learning = NOT FINISHED is it correct ?

1. Correct.
2. Correct.
3. Yes and no. It depends on how the sentence is expressed.
Not finished: "I was learning to cook an exotic Italian dish from Giada De Laurentiis when someone knocked on the door." (This sentence suggests that I didn't finish learning to cook when I was interrupted.)
Finished: "While I was learning English from Mrs. Smith, I also developed a love for languages in general." (This sentence suggests that I finished learning English from Mrs. Smith, but something happened during the process.)

what's the difference between 'that' and 'this'? thank you!

Generally, we use "this" to refer to things (or people) that are nearby: This is my phone. This is my brother Jake.
We use "that" to refer to things (or people) that are not nearby: That car over there belongs to Mike.
For a detailed explanation, read this post: http://bit.ly/1lCY7EN (It also explains "these" and "those.")

Which is the correct comparative degree of kind? Kinder or more kind?

Kinder.
We add -er or -est to almost every one-syllable adjective: taller, shortest, fastest, etc. The most common exceptions are good → better (not "gooder"); bad → worse (not "badder," except in slang).

why is it okay to say 'The whole family was at the table.' and at the same time 'The whole family were at the table.' ? i get that the first example is cos its a singular collective noun so singular verb and similar to the second one . but how can the same sentence hv 2 different collective nouns ?

Collective nouns are tricky, especially in British English.
