Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repetition and fix tense/word order errors.

Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because my handwriting is messy and hard to read. For example, when I review my notes later I often can't understand them, so typing is much clearer and more convenient.

Suggestion: Provide a direct clear answer, then add one or two coherent reasons using linking words. Correct grammar and avoid filler words. Keep to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I type on a desktop keyboard every day. My laptop broke years ago so I use an external desktop keyboard, which feels more tactile and gives me a better sense of typing.

Suggestion: Answer the question directly (give a time or situation). If you didn't formally learn, say when you started using computers and explain briefly, using linking words and correct grammar. Keep sentences short and specific.

Example: I never had formal typing lessons; I learned basic typing as a child when I started using a computer at school. Since my tasks are simple, I improved through regular use rather than training.

Suggestion: Give a clear response about whether you try to improve, and if not, explain why briefly with a reason. If you do improve, mention specific methods (practice, online courses) and use linking words. Correct grammar and reduce repetition.

Example: I don't actively try to improve my typing because my daily tasks are simple and don't require high speed. However, when I need to type more I practice with online lessons and timed exercises to increase accuracy and speed.

× I prefer typing because my handwriting isn't that good and I often when I came back to my writings later I often find it very difficult and I struggle a lot with reading the info that I've written.

✓ I prefer typing because my handwriting isn't very good, and when I come back to my writing later I often find it very difficult to read the information I've written.

Pronoun and noun form issues: 'writings' should be 'writing' (uncountable) and 'info' is informal; use 'information'. Tense: use present simple 'come back' instead of past 'came back' to match 'I often'. Redundant 'often' removed. Also 'reading the info that I've written' is clearer as 'read the information I've written'. Improve by using correct noun forms and consistent tense.

× So I stick to typing as the it's more clear and more convenient.

✓ So I stick to typing as it's clearer and more convenient.

Article and word choice: 'the it's' is incorrect; remove the extra definite article. 'More clear' is better as the comparative adjective 'clearer'. Keep contraction 'it's'. Suggestion: avoid extra articles and use standard comparative forms.

× I do type on a desktop keyboard every day because my laptop got broken years ago and I decided to attach a desktop keyboard to it and I find the desktop keyboard more mechanical and it give you that feel and that yeah, that you're writing something.

✓ I type on a desktop keyboard every day because my laptop broke years ago, so I connected a desktop keyboard to it. I find the desktop keyboard more tactile and it gives you the feeling that you're really writing something.

Tense and verb form errors: 'do type' unnecessary; use simple present 'type'. 'Got broken' is awkward; use past simple 'broke'. 'Decided to attach' better as 'connected' for clarity. Subject-verb agreement: 'it give' should be 'it gives'. Word choice: 'mechanical' can be interpreted literally; 'tactile' or 'more mechanical' acceptable but 'tactile' clearer. Remove filler 'yeah'. Improve by simplifying tense usage and correcting subject-verb agreement.

× I didn't need to learn how to type on a keyboard because my task is on the computer, are often very simple and don't require that much of a skill and or or fast pace because the task is are very simple.

✓ I didn't need to learn how to type on a keyboard because my computer tasks were often very simple and didn't require much skill or speed.

Tense consistency and pluralization: 'my task is on the computer, are often very simple' is ungrammatical—use 'my computer tasks were often very simple' to match past context 'didn't need'. Remove repeated words 'or or' and incorrect 'are'. Use 'didn't require much skill or speed' for concision. Improve by ensuring subject-verb agreement and consistent tense.

× Maybe for other people who actually need to be professional and to be more faster needs to.

✓ Maybe for other people who actually need to be professional and faster, that would be necessary.

Sentence structure and tense: 'to be more faster needs to' is ungrammatical and redundant ('more faster' incorrect). Use 'faster' (not 'more faster') and rephrase to complete the idea: 'that would be necessary' or 'they would need to improve'. Improve by completing the clause and correcting comparative form.

× I don't need to improve my typing because the task is I am working on everyday, are very simple and don't require that much of a skill and don't acquire speed or professionalism.

✓ I don't need to improve my typing because the tasks I work on every day are very simple and don't require much skill, speed, or professionalism.

Subject-verb agreement and sentence structure: 'the task is I am working on everyday, are very simple' mixes forms—use 'the tasks I work on every day are very simple'. Remove 'acquire' which is incorrect here; list required attributes: 'don't require much skill, speed, or professionalism'. Improve by using correct clause order and parallel list structure.

× I just use mouse most of the of the time and keyboard I use it often but not so heavy.

✓ I just use the mouse most of the time, and I use the keyboard often but not heavily.

Article and adverb use: 'use mouse' needs definite article 'the mouse'. 'Most of the of the time' has repetition; use 'most of the time'. 'Not so heavy' is incorrect; use adverb 'not heavily' to modify 'use'. Also add subject 'I' before 'use the keyboard' for clarity. Improve by adding articles, removing repetition, and using correct adverb form.
