Hello everybody !
J'ai un devoir d'anglais, et je dois créer mon propre super-héros. Voici mon devoir, pouvez-vous corriger mes fautes s'il vous plaît ? Cela me rendra vraiment un énorme service ;)
d'avance 
"My favorite superhero, before has become a man with extraordinary powers, was known as Harry Johnson. He was born on the Earth, he was a normal teenager; he went to the high school every day as all the teenagers of his age. He had a banal way of life. But one day, during a stroll through the woods, everything has changed: he has found a hole in the ground emitting a loud strange noise. He entered the hole and discovered a large glowing blue crystalline object. The object soon glowed red and he was stricken by a horrible pain, and he collapsed immediately. And when he woke up, he wasn’t Harry Johnson at all, no, he was SWAGMAN. Before his transformation, he was quite small, brown-haired, his eyes were brown too he was really skinny, and his clothes were very ordinary. He became tall, blond-haired, blue-eyed, and muscular. He won many superpowers as well: he can fly, he can see trough wall like superman, and he became also superstrong and superquick. Plus, his ordinary clothes have been replaced by expensive clothes of luxurious brand names. His superhero’s costume, which helps make him recognizable to everyone, is composed by a pink Gucci’s top, by a blue Prada’s cape, by a yellow D&G’s jean and by green Marc Jacob’s baskets. His symbol is the word “swag”, written in stylized letters, on his chest. Personally, I think it’s the worse superhero’s costume of the world, but everyone seems to think that it’s really cool and beautiful… However, as we say usually, “The habit does not make the monk”, and it’s true, even if SWAGMAN’s costume is totally ridiculous, I have to admit that nowadays, you can’t find another man like him on the whole planet. He is simply exceptional. He is the fastest, strongest, funniest, bravest, and the most handsome man of all the men. Everybody likes him, even me, because he helps people in their everyday life problems with his amazing superpowers, and he is also the only superhero who doesn’t have a nemesis or even any opponent, because his behavior with the others is just perfect and nobody can be against a respectful and respectable man like him. I will not lie to you, he is a superhero, maybe he is the best superhero, but before being a superhero, he is a human, he is Harry Johnson. And as all the humans, he has some bad qualities: he is incredibly narcissistic, yeah, necessarily, when you call yourself “SWAGMAN”, you must be a little bit narcissistic. And he isn’t really serious, sometimes he makes some gaffes, and, furthermore, his costume his hideous. But he can be forgiven, don’t you think ?"

Hello !
Bleu = faute (attention aux temps) ou maladresses de constructions, ordre des mots
Vert = suggestions ou encouragement à chercher encore un peu ...
The beginning was not bad (though a little 'ordinary'). Then, it's becoming more interesting, more original, with better structures. The whole thing is not bad at all !

Hi !
* 'before have become' Chercher ce qui se passe derrière les prépositions ...
puis pour un plus faire le test 103386 !
* - 'on and Earth,' = a slip of the keyboard ? !
* 'But one day, during a stroll through the woods, everything has changed: he has found a hole in the ground emitting a loud strange noise. He entered the hole and discovered a large glowing blue crystalline object. The object soon glowed red and Harry was stricken with a horrible pain, and he collapsed immediately.'
'one day' = marqueur de temps ... réfléchir si l'action se continue où si elle est révolue => en tirer les conséquences pour l'emploi des temps ...De plus, c'est une narration => temps de la narration ?
* 'he cans fly, he cans see ...." Arrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh ! I'm suffering !
You CAN'T DO THAT !
Réfléchir à ce qu'est 'can' et à ce que cela entraîne ... PUIS, réfléchir au temps .... Je suis "achevée"
!!!You CAN'T do that really ! Il va me falloir un peu de temps pour me remettre ...
(to be continued ...)

Sorry toto0,
but as a teacher, I can't go further ...I already know your text almost by heart, and soon, you'll ask me for copyrights !
More seriously, it's not about 'my precious time', but it would be deceiving (=Faux Ami) the colleague who will mark this ! This very good essay MUST REMAIN yours, and not become mine, and I think I've helped enough !
(understatement for 'too much'!)I'd only go on if you were addressing me as a professional translator to go for publishing, but you're not there yet, are you ?
Go on with the good work ! (but don't forget to do your own research before asking for extensive corrections !)
Good luck !
