Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make the answer more natural and concise, add a brief reason with linking word and avoid redundancy. Use richer vocabulary (e.g., ‘edit’ instead of ‘correct’) and limit to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I prefer typing on a computer because it lets me quickly edit my grammar and spelling. Also, typing is faster for me, so I can produce more writing in less time.

Suggestion: Combine ideas to improve fluency and use linking words. Replace repetition with varied vocabulary and add a specific benefit (e.g., comfort or accuracy). Keep to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I usually type on a desktop keyboard because its larger keys are more comfortable and allow for more accurate typing. As a result, I make fewer mistakes and can type for longer without strain.

Suggestion: Provide a single coherent answer with a linking word to expand briefly (e.g., how or why it helped). Add a specific detail about what you learned to show depth.

Example: I learned to type in junior high when my computer teacher introduced touch-typing. That training helped me learn proper finger placement and improve my speed and accuracy.

Suggestion: Make the explanation clearer and more concise, use correct grammar, and add a linking word to explain the effect of the method. Mention frequency or another method for variety.

Example: I improve my typing by using a color-coded keyboard chart to memorize finger placement, which helps me avoid looking at the keys. I also practice short typing exercises online every day to increase my speed.

× I prefer computer typing because I can just easily correct my grammar and spelling using computer.

✓ I prefer typing on a computer because I can easily correct my grammar and spelling using the computer.

The phrase 'computer typing' is unnatural; use the gerund 'typing' with the prepositional phrase 'on a computer'. 'Just' is unnecessary and its position was awkward; 'easily' alone is sufficient. Also include the article 'the' before 'computer' when referring to a specific device. Suggestion: Use 'typing on a computer' and place adverbs like 'easily' before the main verb.

× I prefer to type on a desktop keyboard every day because it's bigger, it's more spacious than the laptop keyboard.

✓ I prefer to type on a desktop keyboard every day because it is bigger and more spacious than a laptop keyboard.

Using two contractions 'it's' in one sentence is repetitive and the comma splice is awkward. Compare items with 'bigger and more spacious than a laptop keyboard.' Use 'a laptop keyboard' (indefinite article) because you're comparing types in general rather than a specific laptop keyboard. Suggestion: Use one coherent comparative structure and choose the correct article for general comparisons.

× I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was in junior high. My teacher taught me how to type and use the computer properly.

✓ I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was in junior high. My teacher taught me how to type and how to use the computer properly.

The original is mostly correct, but repeating 'how to' before 'use the computer' makes the parallel structure clearer and more natural. Parallel infinitive forms improve readability. Suggestion: Keep parallel forms: 'taught me how to type and how to use...'.

× I improve my typing by printing a keyboard picture with a different colors of the letters so that I will remember the placements of the fingers correctly.

✓ I improve my typing by printing a picture of the keyboard with different colored letters so that I can remember the finger placements correctly.

Use 'a picture of the keyboard' instead of 'a keyboard picture'. 'Different colors' should modify 'letters' so use 'different colored letters' (adjective phrase). 'I will remember' is awkward for habitual improvement; use 'I can remember' to express capability. 'Placements of the fingers' is unnatural; use 'finger placements'. Suggestion: Use noun phrase order 'a picture of the keyboard', adjective 'different colored letters', and 'can' for habitual ability.
