× Umm, I think could me.
✓ Umm, I think I could.
The student omitted the subject 'I' before the modal verb 'could' and placed words in the wrong order. In English, modal verbs (could) require a subject directly before them. Suggestion: always include the subject and follow the pattern 'I could + verb' or 'I think I could.'
× I would like typing because it's very convenient and it's quickly.
✓ I would like typing because it's very convenient and it's quick.
The student used the adverb 'quickly' to modify 'it', but 'quick' (adjective) is needed to describe the noun 'it' (the method). Use 'quick' or rephrase 'it is quick and convenient.' Suggestion: use adjectives to describe nouns and adverbs to describe verbs.
× I don't have a desktop.
✓ I don't have a desktop computer.
'Desktop' alone is acceptable in speech, but adding 'computer' clarifies the meaning. This is a minor clarity issue rather than strict grammar; keep 'desktop computer' for formality and clarity.
× I usually spend a few hours on on it doing coursework, browsing the Internet and messaging people.
✓ I usually spend a few hours on it doing coursework, browsing the Internet, and messaging people.
The sentence has a repeated preposition 'on on' and missing commas. Remove the duplicate 'on' and add a comma before 'and' in a list. Suggestion: proofread to remove duplicated words and punctuate lists.
× I think it's when I was 11 years old.
✓ I think it was when I was 11 years old.
Mixing 'I think' (present) with 'it's' (it is) is awkward; 'it was' correctly places the reference in past time. Use past tense 'was' when referring to a past time.
× I have a technology class and the last This is the first time I typing and it very difficult.
✓ I had a technology class, and that was the first time I typed; it was very difficult.
Multiple issues: tense consistency (use past 'had' and 'typed'), word order ('that was the first time'), missing auxiliary 'was' before 'very difficult', and incorrect form 'typing' instead of past 'typed'. Suggestion: keep past events in past tense and use correct verb forms.
× I cannot remember position of.
✓ I cannot remember the positions of the keys.
The original lacks the object of 'position of' and the correct article. Provide the full noun phrase: 'the positions of the keys' to clarify meaning. Suggestion: always include the object and correct articles.
× I pretty daily you saw for about 50 minutes using typing to social software and also good time exercise to improve space and accuracy.
✓ I type almost every day for about 50 minutes using social apps, and I also do exercises to improve speed and accuracy.
Many issues: 'pretty daily' is incorrect (use 'almost every day'), 'you saw' is irrelevant and wrong, 'using typing to social software' should be 'using social apps' or 'typing on social apps', 'good time exercise' should be 'do exercises', 'space' should be 'speed'. Suggestion: simplify and use common collocations: 'type almost every day', 'use social apps', 'do exercises', 'speed and accuracy.'
× As a result my fingers have become faster and I make few mistakes.
✓ As a result, my fingers have become faster and I make fewer mistakes.
Use the comparative 'fewer' with countable 'mistakes' not 'few'. Also add a comma after 'As a result'. The present perfect 'have become' is fine to show change; keep 'I make fewer mistakes.' Suggestion: use 'fewer' for countable nouns and 'less' for uncountable.
