Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is clear and on-topic with good contrast between situations, but improve grammar, sentence variety and coherence. Reduce redundancy (e.g. "I don't have a strong preference either" + "Either way..."), correct verb forms ("type written" → "typed"), and use linking phrases to make the comparison smoother.

Example: I don't have a strong preference because each has a different purpose. For example, I prefer typed text for long reports since it's neater and easier to edit; however, for a personal note or a Christmas card, I choose handwriting because it feels more personal and thoughtful.

Suggestion: Good content but repetitive and slightly awkward phrasing. Combine sentences to avoid repetition ("most of the time" and "mostly"). Use clear linking words (e.g. "however") and correct small collocations ("making reports" → "writing reports").

Example: I mostly use my laptop for daily tasks like emails and short reports; however, when a report is long or requires more processing power, I prefer to work on a desktop because it's more comfortable and stable.

Suggestion: Your answer addresses the question but has grammar errors and repetition. Use past tense consistently and avoid repeating words. Replace passive or awkward phrases with a concise personal statement and add a brief specific detail (e.g. class name or age).

Example: I learned to type in high school when a computer class was introduced. My teacher encouraged us to practice touch-typing twice a week, which helped me build speed and accuracy.

Suggestion: Good specific detail (Monkey Type) and personal routine. Improve fluency by removing fillers (uh, like), avoid repetition ("It's, it's"), and tighten sentences. Mention measurable goals (speed, accuracy) for a stronger answer.

Example: I improve my typing by practicing on MonkeyType for about 20 minutes every evening. This helps me increase my speed and accuracy; for instance, I aim to raise my words-per-minute from 50 to 65 and reduce my error rate by practising short timed tests.

× Either way it serves different purpose.

✓ Either way they serve different purposes.

The subject 'Either way' refers to two options, so the verb and noun should be plural. Use 'they serve' (plural) and 'purposes' (plural). Also consider rephrasing to 'Either way serves a different purpose' if you mean each way individually; choose plural only if referring to both collectively.

× I prefer to have it type written,

✓ I prefer to have it typewritten,

The correct past participle/adjective for typed text is 'typewritten' as one word. 'Type written' is incorrect segmentation. Use 'typewritten' to describe text produced by typing.

× Most of the time I do my reports.

✓ Most of the time I write my reports.

The verb 'do' is vague and commonly replaced by 'write' when referring to preparing reports. This is a lexical/prepositional choice issue; using 'write' is more precise and idiomatic.

× I send my emails using my laptop, but sometimes making reports I prefer to use a desktop.

✓ I send my emails on my laptop, but when I'm making reports I prefer to use a desktop.

The sentence had awkward word order and missing subject in the second clause. Use 'on my laptop' for device usage, and include 'when I'm' to introduce the clause. This corrects pronoun/reference and sentence structure.

× The computer was introduced to me when I was in high school.

✓ Computers were introduced to me when I was in high school.

Using 'The computer' implies a specific single computer; generally people learn about computers (plural class/topic). Use plural 'Computers were introduced' or rephrase 'I was introduced to computers'. This fixes the 'there/this/that' reference issue.

× One of my teacher encouraged us to use the computer and encourage us to practice typing using the keyboard.

✓ One of my teachers encouraged us to use computers and practice typing on the keyboard.

'One of my teacher' should be 'One of my teachers' (plural after 'one of'). Also maintain consistent tense: 'encouraged' once. Use plural 'computers' and 'on the keyboard' is more natural. This fixes pronoun/number and repetition issues.

× There are a lot of ways I try to improve my typing skills using the desktop.

✓ There are a lot of ways I try to improve my typing skills using the desktop.

No grammatical change needed; sentence is acceptable. (If intended to mark no change, include as unchanged.)

× There is a wonderful website that I actually am using at the moment.

✓ There is a wonderful website that I am actually using at the moment.

Word order 'actually am' is awkward; 'I am actually using' is the natural order. This corrects pronoun + auxiliary placement for fluency.

× So at the end of the day, I give myself like 20 minutes to, uh, practice.

✓ So at the end of the day, I give myself about 20 minutes to practice.

Remove filler 'like' and hesitation 'uh' for clarity. Use 'about' to indicate approximation. This corrects informal filler and improves sentence structure.
