    just a few minor corrections:

    - Zimmermann sounds really old-fashioned ... Schreiner or Tischler is a lot more common in use these days.
    - it's Atmosphäre
    - Ich finde es in der Stadt besser.
    - Man kann einen Einkaufsbummel im Einkaufszentrum machen. sounds way more natural to me... I wouldn't ever consider using "in dem" in spoken German.
    - Das Kino ist sehr vergnüglich. this sounds so weird... vergnüglich wouldn't usually be used this context...
    - putze
    - Der Uni sieht wirklich besser aus. it's die Uni(versität) and sieht aus wouldn't be the word you are looking for... "wirkt" seems to be what you are looking
    - Ich lerne seit sechs Jahren Deutsch.
    - Ich habe Französisch in der Grundschule gemacht. you studied French in primary school???? Grundschule is 1th-4th class in Germany
    - Es gibt viele Berufe in Deutschland. - Arbeitsplätze; Berufe is used to describe your profession
    - Ich interessiere mich für Geschäft - don't even have a clue what you mean by this
    - Ich möchte mit einer größeren Firma, wie Facebook arbeiten. - ... depending on the context... arbeiten bei (you are employed), arbeiten mit (you have your own firm and have some sort of cooperation with them)
    - Aber Ich hoffe, dass das nicht passiert. - use future and ", dass das nicht passieren wird."
    - Ich verbringe jeden Tag mit dem Computer. - "am" not "mit dem" (otherwise it sounds like you spend everyday with so. (in this case your computer))
    - Ich habe die mündliche Prüfung mit meinem Freund geübt. - Ich habe mit meinen Freunden für die mündliche Prüfung geübt.

    what I noticed: you use "ich will" a lot "ich möchte" might be a good alternative
