Hi there!!
It's well known that you shouldn't lie down as soon as you finish eating something. That's why I decided to write something while I take a rest before I go to sleep even if it's about midnight.
So, I'll continue answering the possible questions I could be asked in an in ternational exam I'm about to take. I think I have made big progress thanks to you.
Let's get it started!!
**So Alexander, why are you taking this exam?
I'm pursuing higher studies abroad, and universities as well as embassies demand international English certifications in order to be accepted. In addition, speaking another language has always been seen in my country as a very good professional quality. Nowadays, enterprises are starting to ask for international exams to confirm information that people provides in their CVs. So, I think it makes part of my professional formation.
**What kind of studies are you pursuing?
I'm not quite sure which branch of my field I'm going to choose. I'm interested in go into depth in so many areas, that it is difficult to select just one. Didactics, linguistics, pedagogy and humanities in general catch my attention and everyone of them is special in a certain way. I'll see what life will bring me.
**What do you do in your free time?
My free time is really short. I like to share time with my family seeing how my little brothers grow up. Passing time with me and other the other members, help them reinforce their self-esteem. I also have a girlfriend that I love. We go to the cinema once a month and I also teach her French. I admire her because she has a musicien ear and her pronunctiation is excellent (in fact she's an opera singer). When I'm alone, I like trying to learn other languages. Learning and reading about them is really pleasant to me. Besides I try to perfect my French and English which are true clues to my success.
Well. It's midnight and I'm sleepy.
Thanks again for helping me!!!

So, I'll continue answering the possible questions I could be asked in an international exam I'm about to take.
I'm pursuing a higher education abroad, and universities as well as embassies demand international English certifications in order to be accepted.
I'm interested in specializing in so many areas that it is difficult to select just one.
Didactics, linguistics, pedagogy and humanities in general catch my attention and each one of them is special (unique) in a certain (its own) way.
I like to spend time with my family seeing as my little brothers are growing up.
Passing time with me and other the other members, (I try to reserve quality time to spend with them and) help them reinforce their self-esteem. (act as a mentor/role model.)
The part in red doesn't make much sense, so I took my best guess at clarifying your intent. The second half just sounds...odd...and I can't put my finger on why that is, so I gave you a more common expression that conveys a similar meaning.
I admire her because she has a musician's ear and her pronunciation is excellent (in fact she's an opera singer).
Other than that, I try to perfect my French and English which are crucial to my success.

This sentence is grammatically correct but you might also say "I don't really have a lot of free time"

"higher studies" or "higher education" are okay.
Nowadays, enterprises are starting to ask for international exams to confirm information that people provides in their CVs.
"people" is not singular. Therefore: people provide (3rd person plural)
Confusing, because in Spanish "gente" is singular :)
So, I think it makes part of my professional formation.
formation = training (you could use either word)
Last night I was up until midnight studying Czech and some Japanese :)))
Thanks again, your recommendations are always welcomed!!!
I use our time together / I use my time with them to teach them and help to reinforce their self-esteem.
I like Sunflower's suggestion as well. Normally I would say "spending time," but the previous sentence calls for the same word to be used, so it would sound redundant. "Passing the time" sounds more to me like finding something to do when you're bored.
