When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Candidate
When I was in school and I remember that in a second grade there was a one course introduced by the school curriculum and it was computer application for the first time. I went to the computer laboratory and touched the keyboard. Initially I was little bit afraid whether I can type on it or not, but later on it became so much easier to me to use it.

How do you improve your typing?
Candidate
Well I think to improve my typing then I will practice on a keyboard and give preference to type on the keyboard of the laptop. I have a Dell laptop and I spend around 2 to 3 hours to type on it to either for the teaching notes and lessons. So definitely with the practice I can improve my typing.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Make your answer more concise and grammatically correct. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words (e.g., "because", "however"). Avoid repetition and long awkward clauses. Aim for 2–4 sentences and correct verb forms and articles.
Example: I prefer typing when I have access to a laptop because it is faster and makes editing easier. However, if I am short of time or have no device, I write by hand since it is quick and convenient. Both methods are useful in my teaching because typed notes are easy to share while handwritten notes can be made quickly in class.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Organize your response: begin with a direct answer (yes/no), then give one or two clear reasons. Remove fillers (uh) and unnecessary brand mentions unless relevant. Use correct pronouns and verb agreement. Keep sentences short and coherent with linking words like "because" or "so".
Example: Yes, I type on a laptop every day because I prepare lesson plans and reply to many students online. I use a Dell laptop, which helps me edit documents quickly and manage emails, so it is essential for my teaching work.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Score: 74.0Suggestion: Provide a concise timeline and use natural phrasing. Start with a direct statement of when, then add a brief specific detail about the experience using linking words (e.g., "when", "then", "but"). Correct articles and prepositions and avoid repetition.
Example: I learned to type when I was in second grade at school, during a computer application course. At first I was a bit afraid to use the keyboard, but with practice in the computer lab it quickly became easier.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: Be specific about methods and use clear sequencing. Begin with a topic sentence about your main strategy, then give concrete details (time spent, activities, tools) and use linking phrases (e.g., "for example", "by"). Avoid unnecessary brand mentions and ensure correct tense and grammar.
Example: I improve my typing by practicing regularly on my laptop for about two to three hours a day. For example, I type lesson notes, reply to student messages, and use online typing exercises to increase speed and accuracy; with consistent practice my typing improves steadily.
× When I give preference to both of the typing and the handwriting, If I have a laptop available then I give a preference to type the content on screen and if I don't have so much time and then I give a preference to write on the paper based with the help of pen. So I think both are beneficial for my teaching profession and give preference to both of typing as.
✓ When I have to choose between typing and handwriting, if I have a laptop available I prefer to type content on the screen; if I don't have much time I prefer to write on paper with a pen. I think both are beneficial for my teaching profession, so I prefer both methods.
Incorrect prepositions and prepositional phrases ('give preference to both of the typing and the handwriting', 'type the content on screen', 'write on the paper based with the help of pen') made the sentence unclear. Use 'choose between' and 'prefer to' without unnecessary 'to give preference' phrases, use 'on the screen' and 'write on paper with a pen'. Also simplified structure and punctuation for clarity.
× Yes, definitely. As I said that I'm from a teaching profession, so I have to reply a lot of students which I'm teaching and uh, I have to prepare our notes.
✓ Yes, definitely. As I said, I work in the teaching profession, so I have to reply to many students whom I teach, and I have to prepare my notes.
Incorrect pronouns and relative clause ('reply a lot of students', 'which I'm teaching', 'our notes') should be corrected: use 'reply to many students' and the relative pronoun 'whom' for people, and use 'my notes' to reflect ownership. Also 'work in the teaching profession' is more natural than 'I'm from a teaching profession'.
× So I give a preference to type on the laptop and I have a Dell laptop available and it have a lot of functions and we can edit the documents in it.
✓ So I prefer to type on my laptop. I have a Dell laptop that has many functions, and we can edit documents on it.
Subject-verb agreement error: 'it have' should be 'it has'. Also simplified 'give a preference to type' to 'prefer to type' and corrected preposition 'on it' for editing documents.
× So I give a preference to have a laptop every.
✓ Therefore, I prefer to have a laptop with me at all times.
The original sentence is incomplete and ungrammatical ('have a laptop every'). Rewrote to a complete, natural sentence indicating habitual preference.
× When I was in school and I remember that in a second grade there was a one course introduced by the school curriculum and it was computer application for the first time.
✓ When I was in school, I remember that in second grade a course was introduced in the curriculum called Computer Applications for the first time.
Tense and word order issues: 'there was a one course introduced by the school curriculum' is awkward. Use passive 'a course was introduced in the curriculum' and correct article use ('second grade' not 'a second grade'). Keep past tense consistent for remembered events.
× I went to the computer laboratory and touched the keyboard.
✓ I went to the computer laboratory and touched the keyboard.
Sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. Action sequence in simple past is appropriate.
× Initially I was little bit afraid whether I can type on it or not, but later on it became so much easier to me to use it.
✓ Initially I was a little afraid whether I could type on it or not, but later it became much easier for me to use.
Use 'a little' as adjective modifier, not 'little bit' in this context. Use past tense 'could' to match 'was' and 'became'. Use 'easier for me to use' not 'easier to me to use'.
× Well I think to improve my typing then I will practice on a keyboard and give preference to type on the keyboard of the laptop.
✓ Well, to improve my typing I practice on a keyboard and prefer to type on my laptop's keyboard.
Original mixes conditional and future unnecessarily. For habitual actions use present simple: 'I practice' and 'prefer'. Also use possessive 'laptop's keyboard'.
× I have a Dell laptop and I spend around 2 to 3 hours to type on it to either for the teaching notes and lessons.
✓ I have a Dell laptop and I spend around two to three hours typing on it to prepare teaching notes and lessons.
Quantifier numbers should be written consistently (two to three). Use gerund 'typing on it' rather than 'to type on it', and 'prepare teaching notes' is clearer than 'to either for the teaching notes'.
× So definitely with the practice I can improve my typing.
✓ So, definitely, with practice I can improve my typing.
Sentence is acceptable but slight style improvement: remove 'the' before 'practice' and keep modal 'can' to express ability. No major grammatical change needed.
