So, then what are the mistakes with the sentences? Are there any grammar errors?

Hmmm.

No grammatical mistake. But we would say:

XXX先生/小姐 想喝/吃/买点儿东西/什么.

I don't want to buy anything. 我什么也不想买.

my students/chinese students 我的/中国学生In these sentences "们"can be ommited.

唉!說來丟臉,台灣被上吐(杜)下瀉(謝)加連莊,把教育給搞得已經快沒國文,只剩國語了。說來慚愧!

  國語 is the national language.Since you are the people of this country,you learned it from your parents as a matter of course.

  國文 have something to do with the level of education .If you are educated well,the expression of your language would be elegant and cultivation.

  In the past eight years of crazy policy the level of education is on the down grade quickly.

  We are very worry about it now.
