1. Akira executes her secret plan in promoting the Scared Riders by bringing them to the beach to film a commercial.

Akira executes her secret plan ...
in promoting the Scared Riders ... (The goal of the plan is to promote the Scared Riders.)
by bringing them to the beach ... (She will do this by taking* them to the beach.)
to film a commercial.

I would say:

Akira executes her secret plan to promote the Scared Riders by taking them to the beach to film a commercial.

* BRING v. TAKE

bring -- puts the speaker or listener at the final location of the transported item/person.
take -- can describe other people going to other locations.

1: Are you going to bring your friend to the party? (Speaker will be there.)
2: Are you going to take your friend to the store? (Speaker will not be there.)

3: I'm going to bring my hairdryer to your house. (Listener will be there.)
4: I'm going to take my hairdryer to her house. (Listener will not be there.)

5: He is going to bring the hamburgers. (Either the speaker or the listener will be there.)
6: He is going to take her to the Atlanta airport. (Neither the speaker nor the listener will be there.)

2. There is a new transfer student joining the riders. However, due to his attitude and the way he speaks, the rest does not really like him.

There is a new transfer student ...
joining the riders. (Scared Riders is a proper name so Riders should be capitalized.)
However, due to his attitude and the way he speaks, ...

the rest does not ... (The rest is singular but represents individuals with separate opinions so use the plural do.)
really like him.

I would say:

There's a new transfer student joining the Riders. However, due to his attitude and the way he speaks, the rest don't really like him.

You think your mistakes are silly? Ask my mom how long I babbled and how often she had to correct my grammar.

It's hard to learn so much grammar and vocabulary in such a short time.

Be proud of yourself.
