Corrected Text:

"After my usual morning routine, I went to work at my office. It was quite a successful day because I finished one of my tasks. After that, I went to a mobile phone shop because my phone was being repaired, and I got it back. They had fixed the problem. After that, I went to a furniture shop and bought two chairs for my house."

Corrections & Explanations:

  1. "common morning routine" → "usual morning routine"

    • "Common" means "frequent" or "widespread" in general, but "usual" is the correct word to describe your regular habit.
  2. "I went to my work at my office" → "I went to work at my office"

    • "Go to work" is the natural phrasing; "my work" sounds unnatural in this context.
    • "At my office" is fine, but it can be omitted if it’s already clear.
  3. "It was a quite successful day" → "It was quite a successful day"

    • "Quite" should come before "a" in this sentence: "quite a successful day."
  4. "because my phone was in repair" → "because my phone was being repaired"

    • "In repair" is unnatural. Use "being repaired" to show that the repair process was ongoing.
  5. "I have my phone back" → "I got it back"

    • "Have" is the wrong tense here; use "got it back" (past simple) since it happened in the past.
  6. "They fixed the problem" → "They had fixed the problem"

    • Using past perfect ("had fixed") makes it clear that the repair was completed before you got your phone back.
