Halfway done with... or Half finished /work on vs be on
Could you please help me correct these sentences?
1 I'm halfway done with my work. My work will take me 3 hours altogether, that is if I take my time somewhat.
2 The project I am working on will take three hours, taking my time. I am half-finished.
3 If she gives me work to do at the last minute I'll still be on it tomorrow . (can you say "be on it")
4 I’ve got another 2 hours of work left; exactly the length of a movie. I might as well watch one. By the time I’m done, I’ll be able to go home.
Thank you

Really, I think s/he should fix the latter part of the first sentence as "if I somewhat take my time" or
even better, "if I can somehow take my time"

I have to disagree. the sentence part "I'll still be on it tomorrow" is incorrect.
