Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make your response direct and fluent: begin with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition and filler words, use correct grammar (e.g. “prefer typing to handwriting”), and give one or two concise supporting reasons with linking words. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because it is faster and more accurate. For example, when I take notes on my laptop I can edit quickly and find information easily. However, handwriting can be helpful for practising my writing skills, so I still write by hand occasionally.

Suggestion: Answer directly, use correct verb forms and concise language, and include a brief reason. Use linking words to connect ideas and avoid repetition (e.g. don’t repeat ‘laptop keyboard’). Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I only have a laptop at home. Since I don’t own a desktop, I do all my work and study on the laptop.

Suggestion: Give a clear time reference and use past tense consistently. Avoid hesitations and correct forms (e.g. “I owned”). Provide a brief specific example of how you practised to make your answer more vivid.

Example: I learned to type when I was about five years old. At that time we had a desktop computer and I practised by playing typing-based games, which helped me improve my speed and accuracy.

Suggestion: Be specific about the methods you use and add a detail about frequency or results. Use plural/singular correctly and remove redundant phrases (e.g. say ‘on websites’ or ‘online’). Keep to 2–3 sentences and use a linking phrase to add detail.

Example: I improve my typing by practising online on typing websites several times a week. For example, I use timed tests and accuracy drills to increase my speed and track my progress.

× Uh, to be honest, I prefer do typing than handwriting because typing is more accurate and also it is more efficient than the handwriting one.

✓ Uh, to be honest, I prefer typing to handwriting because typing is more accurate and more efficient than handwriting.

The sentence uses incorrect article 'the' and awkward phrasing 'prefer do typing than'. Use the gerund after prefer (prefer typing), use 'prefer A to B' structure, and omit unnecessary articles before uncountable nouns like handwriting. Also remove redundant 'the' before handwriting.

× But in the in the some circumstances, and writing is also a good one because it is also practice your skill in uh, handwriting.

✓ But in some circumstances, handwriting is also good because it helps you practice your handwriting skills.

The original has redundant words ('in the in the some'), incorrect noun phrase 'writing is also a good one', and wrong verb form 'practice your skill'. Use 'in some circumstances' and 'handwriting helps you practice your handwriting skills' for clear subject-verb structure and correct noun forms.

× It is good to.

✓ It is good.

The fragment 'It is good to.' is incomplete; the infinitive 'to' needs a verb. Replace with the complete sentence 'It is good.' or complete the thought (e.g., 'It is good to practice.'). This fixes article/structure incompleteness.

× I do type in a laptop keyboard like everyday because I only have laptop in my home and also I don't I didn't have any desktop so I do it in laptop keyboard.

✓ I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I only have a laptop at home and I don't have a desktop, so I use the laptop keyboard.

Use the simple present 'I type' for habitual action, not 'do type'. Use the preposition 'on' with 'keyboard'. 'Every day' is two words. Include the article 'a' before 'laptop' and use consistent tense 'I don't have' not 'I don't I didn't have'. 'Use' is clearer than 'do it in'.

× I think it was like when I was five years old, uh, at a time I own a desktop computer and did a lot of playing, play games, I think.

✓ I think it was when I was five years old. At that time I owned a desktop computer and played a lot of games.

Use past tense 'owned' and 'played' to describe past events instead of present 'own' and infinitive 'play'. 'At that time' is the correct phrase. Remove filler 'like' for clarity.

× And by doing that I learned and also practice my typing skills.

✓ And by doing that I learned and also practiced my typing skills.

Maintain past tense for both verbs when describing past results: 'learned' and 'practiced'. The original mixes past and present ('learned' and 'practice'), which is inconsistent.

× I improve my typing skills by doing a typing test in the websites in the Internet.

✓ I improve my typing skills by doing typing tests on websites on the Internet.

Use plural 'typing tests' if multiple or generic practice. Use preposition 'on' with 'websites' and 'on the Internet'. 'In the websites' is incorrect. Also 'the Internet' is acceptable, but 'on the Internet' is standard.
