Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: 문법과 표현을 더 자연스럽게 고치고 불필요한 반복을 줄이세요. 예를 들어 ‘prefer typing to computer’ 대신 ‘prefer typing to handwriting’ 또는 ‘prefer using a computer’처럼 정확한 비교 대상을 사용해야 합니다. 또한 이유를 말할 때는 간결한 주제문을 제시한 뒤, 연결어(for, because, so 등)를 사용해 구체적인 근거(예: 속도, 편리성, 휴대성 등)를 하나나 두 개로 정리하세요.

Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because it's faster and more convenient. For example, I can edit and save documents easily on a laptop, and I don't need to carry notebooks and pens, so it's more practical for my daily work.

Suggestion: 문장을 단순하고 명확하게 만드세요. 중복된 표현(‘use usually using’)과 모호한 이유는 피해야 합니다. 또한 하루 빈도를 묻는 질문에는 간단히 빈도표현(e.g., every day, most days)으로 시작하고, 왜 노트북을 사용하는지 구체적인 이유를 덧붙이세요.

Example: Yes, I usually type on a laptop every day. I prefer a laptop because it's portable and I practiced typing on it while preparing for the computer-based IELTS exam.

Suggestion: 연결어와 문장 구조를 정리해 자연스럽게 말하세요. 시점(when)을 명확히 제시한 뒤 이유를 간단히 설명하고 불필요한 망설임(uh, umm)을 줄이세요. 예: ‘When I was in elementary school, I learned typing because basic computer skills were taught at school.’처럼 구성하세요.

Example: I learned how to type when I was in elementary school because basic computer skills were part of the curriculum, so we had lessons that taught typing and using a keyboard.

Suggestion: 원인과 결과를 명확하고 자연스럽게 연결하세요. 현재 진행형과 완성형 표현을 정확히 사용하고 중복되는 말을 줄이세요. 구체적인 방법(예: 온라인 타자 연습, 게임, 텍스트 입력)이나 빈도(e.g., practice for 20 minutes a day)를 추가하면 더 좋습니다.

Example: I don't do intensive practice, but because I use the computer every day, my typing has gradually improved. In addition, I sometimes use online typing practice tools for 10–15 minutes to increase my speed and accuracy.

× I prefer typing to computer because it is faster and more convenient.

✓ I prefer typing on a computer because it is faster and more convenient.

The correct preposition for using a device is on (typing on a computer). 'To' is used for preferences (prefer A to B), but here 'computer' is the object used, so use 'on'. Also add the article 'a' before 'computer'. Suggestion: say 'I prefer typing on a computer.'

× I need to bring a lot of things when I do handwriting.

✓ I need to bring a lot of things when I write by hand.

'Handwriting' is a noun referring to one's style of writing; the action is expressed as 'write by hand' or 'handwrite'. Use the verb form 'write' with the phrase 'by hand'. Suggestion: use 'write by hand' or 'handwrite'.

× However, typing is only need some laptops, so I think it's better for me.

✓ However, typing only needs a laptop, so I think it's better for me.

Several issues: 'is only need' is ungrammatical — use the verb 'needs' for third person singular (typing needs). 'Some laptops' is unnatural; using 'a laptop' or 'a computer' is more natural when referring to the device required. Also subject-verb agreement requires 'needs'. Suggestion: 'typing only needs a laptop.'

× Yes, I think I use usually using the laptop typing because I uh, learned some.

✓ Yes, I usually use a laptop for typing because I learned some skills.

Word order and redundant verbs are incorrect: 'use usually using' is wrong — place adverb 'usually' before the main verb: 'I usually use.' 'The laptop typing' should be 'a laptop for typing.' Also clarify 'learned some' to 'learned some skills.' Suggestion: 'I usually use a laptop for typing.'

× I studied the IELTS test for the computer using computers, so I think use everyday.

✓ I studied for the IELTS computer-based test, so I think I use it every day.

Problems: word order and missing pronoun. 'Studied the IELTS test for the computer using computers' is confusing. More natural: 'studied for the IELTS computer-based test.' Also 'so I think use everyday' needs subject 'I' and object 'it' (the computer), and 'every day' is two words. Suggestion: 'I studied for the computer-based IELTS test, so I use a computer every day.'

× I learned the keyboard skills when I was, uh, elementary school student.

✓ I learned keyboard skills when I was an elementary school student.

Missing article 'an' before 'elementary school student' and unnecessary commas. 'The keyboard skills' can be 'keyboard skills' (no article) unless referring to specific skills. Suggestion: 'I learned keyboard skills when I was an elementary school student.'

× Umm, this is.

✓ Umm, this is basic computer knowledge.

Fragment 'this is.' is incomplete and lacks an object. Provide a full noun phrase to complete the idea. Suggestion: finish the sentence with what 'this' refers to, e.g., 'this is basic computer knowledge.'

× The basic skills of the computers, so they need to I need to learn the basic things, so I that's why I.

✓ Basic computer skills are necessary, so I needed to learn them; that's why I did.

Original is fragmented and contains incorrect structure and mixed pronouns. Rephrase into coherent clauses: 'Basic computer skills are necessary, so I needed to learn them; that's why I did.' Suggestion: keep subject-verb order and avoid repeating fragments.

× I'm not doing like a hard practice for this typing, but I need to use the computer every day.

✓ I don't practice typing intensively, but I need to use the computer every day.

'I'm not doing like a hard practice' is informal and ungrammatical. Use simple present 'I don't practice' for habitual actions and 'intensively' or 'a lot' as adverb. Suggestion: 'I don't practice typing intensively.'

× So that's why I my typing skills getting better and the increase that's that's the reason.

✓ So that's why my typing skills are getting better and increasing.

Missing auxiliary verb 'are' for present continuous: 'my typing skills are getting better.' 'And the increase' is awkward; 'and improving' or 'and increasing' works. Remove repeated 'that's.' Suggestion: 'That's why my typing skills are getting better.'
