Errors

• In the given sentence, we have two errors- one in the verb and one in the preposition.

• The subject of the sentence is 'he.' Thus, it is a singular subject and should take a singular verb. 'Have' is a plural verb. Hence it was wrong. 'Has' should be the correct verb.

• The preposition 'from' is used to indicate the time when the period of the work was known to us. Here only the beginning time has been mentioned. Thus, it will take the preposition 'since.' Since indicates the time when the action started.

• The other grammatical portions are correct in the sentence.
