Please, make the necessary corrections:
- Joshua gives computer classes at an association near his home (could it also be: ...at an association close to his home ?).
- Carol often studies Dutch in the evening, on Tuesdays and Thrusdays.
or
- Carol studies Dutch on Tuesdays and Thrusdays, in the evening.
or
- Are both forms acceptable?
- 'Assignments of the day' or 'Day assignments'?
Thanks,
Leo

Please, make the necessary corrections:
- Joshua gives computer classes at an association near his home. OK. 'Gives' means that he is the teacher.
(could it also be: ...at an association close to his home ?). Yes.
An 'association' is not commonly a place where one gives classes.
- Carol often studies Dutch in the evening, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sounds awkward

I'd say - Carol studies Dutch on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
- 'Assignments of the day' or 'Day assignments'?
Both sound a bit awkward.
How you say this depends a bit on the context. eg 'Today's assignments'.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Thanks to Master Clive.
Maybe we can also say:
- Joshua gives computer classes at an association next to his home.

No. 'Next to' here means 'beside'.
If I and all my fellow students are sitting in a row in the classroom, the one on either side of me is 'next to' me, but they are all 'close to' me.
