Are this corrections good?
The English teacher corrected one of my essays and I'd like to know if my sentences where really wrong.
Case 1:
My essay: In this restaurant, there is not a stylish environment neither is the service exactly nice.
The correction: This restaurant is not the most classy of places and the staff isn't extremely nice.
Case 2:
My essay: If you walk past this establishment, it is unlikely to attract you.
The correction: If you walk past this establishment, you may not even notice it.
Thanks in advance.

The courgette festival
The Courgette Festival is celebrated from the early March to the end of April. It is a celebration to foster the consumption of this vegetable at a local level but also among foreign people. Our city possess a kind of award certificating that courgettes grown here are high quality and it is the vegetable that represents our city.
Over these weeks restaurants and bars devote their time to create and promote dishes whose main ingredient is the courgette. During March, bars offer original starters, called pinchos and the town council organise a contest to prize the best pincho. The last Sunday of March, the main event is celebrated, the gastronomic tasting. Most restaurant put up a stall in the city centre and they offer creative courgette dishes to the citizens. And, until the end of April, people can enjoy innovative courgette menus in several establishments.
One of the menus I like best is quite good value for money. It is made up of four starters. The first one might sound strange to foreign people. It is made with the core of the courgette, which is the softer part, seasoned with romesco sauce, a sauce made with tomato, garlic, nuts and bread. The main dish is a rice dish made with courgettes and seafood. And, of couse, there is courgette in the desserts as well.

I'd like to know the mistakes I made in this essay and how native it sounds. Thanks :)
Close your eyes and try to go across the room you are in. It is quite difficult, right? So, imagine how tough blind people’s life must be. As I see it, easing their daily routine is everybody’s responsibility; and two helpful measures to take action are the following.
In the first place, guide dogs are an excellent help both in a utilitarian and psychological way. Obviously, these animals are the eyes of those suffering this disability. However, apart from improving their lives in a practical way, guide dogs have also become a sort of friend. Thus, blind people don’t focus on their plight that much.
In the second place, relatives and friends suppose an essential part in visually disable people’s life. Those who are around blind people on a daily basis are the ones who really know their needs. Therefore, there is no one like relatives to find the solution in each situation. Say, organising furniture in a certain way, guiding them in mew places, or simply standing by them in their lows.
On the whole both aid measures imply a remarkable improvement. Still, relatives and friends, are by far the best support for impaired people. A guide dog is helpful, but human beings understand each other in a deeper sense.

How to ask about homework in English.
Hi, in Spanish, to ask about the homework the teacher gave we say: "Qué hay de deberes?" or "Qué ha mandado de deberes?"
I'd like to know a common way to express the same in English. Thanks.

What does "people skipping lines" mean?
The context is "The teacher doesn't like people skipping lines".
Besides, I have two more questions:
1. Why do we have to use present continuous in this sentence? Would it also be correct to use present simple?
If YOU'RE LACKING a university degree, there is no need to worry.
2. Why do we have to use present perfect in this sentence? Would it also be correct to use present simple?
I'VE KNOWN people who have become food tasters.

English options to say "¿Me explico?"
Hi! I know that in English there's the expression "Do you know what I mean?" but I was wondering if there's a common alternative referind to the speaker. In Spanish we say "¿Me explico?" and if you say so you mean that if the message was missunderstood, it's the speaker's fault, not the listener's.
(Feel free to correct this message too if there's any mistake)
