Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Сократите запинки и повторы, улучшите грамматику и структуру ответа. Начните с чётного тематического предложения, затем добавьте одно-два конкретных пояснения, используя связки (for example, while, because). Избегайте разговорных вставок «uh» и неправильных форм (например, «more easier»).
Example: It depends on the task. I usually type when I chat with friends or colleagues because it is faster and more convenient. However, I prefer handwriting for official documents or application forms because it feels more formal and personal.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Устраните ненужные выражения и непонятные фразы. Дайте прямой ответ и поясните причину конкретно — например, для работы и удобства. Используйте связки (because, so) и корректную лексику вместо метафор вроде «fill your brain».
Example: Yes, I use a laptop keyboard every day because my job requires constant typing. It is convenient and allows me to work efficiently, especially when I need to write emails or reports.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Дайте более конкретный ответ вместо расплывчатых фраз и исключите лишние паузы. Если не помните точной даты, назовите примерный период (e.g. as a child, at school) и добавьте короткое объяснение уровня навыка. Уберите двусмысочные выражения («we have to feel more than we are»).
Example: I learned to type many years ago, probably when I was at school. Since then I practised a lot, and now I can type without looking at the keys, which helps me work faster.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Отвечайте чётко: скажите, улучшаете ли вы навык или нет, и приведите конкретные способы (приложения, упражнения, практическая работа). Используйте связки (however, but, for example) и корректную лексику вместо неуклюжих фраз («in our century»).
Example: I don't do formal exercises because I already type quickly, but I do improve naturally by using typing apps and practicing at work. For example, I sometimes use online typing tests to increase my speed and accuracy.
× Oh, it really depends on what I'm doing. Uh, because if I'm typing, uh, it's more easier to chatting with my friends or with colleagues and uh, while I'm writing by handwriting, uh, it's more preferable to fill the documents or application for somewhere.
✓ Oh, it really depends on what I'm doing. If I'm typing, it's easier to chat with my friends or colleagues, while when I'm writing by hand, it's more suitable for filling out documents or applications.
The phrase 'more easier' is redundant; use 'easier' (adjective) or 'more easy' is incorrect. 'To chatting' should be the base verb 'to chat' after 'easier' or use the infinitive 'to chat' or the bare infinitive after modal-like expressions. 'Writing by handwriting' is wordy and nonnative; use 'writing by hand' or 'handwriting' as a noun. 'More preferable' is awkward; 'preferable' alone is sufficient. 'Fill the documents or application for somewhere' has incorrect preposition and article usage; use 'fill out documents or applications' or 'apply somewhere'. Suggestions: avoid redundant comparatives (more + -er), use correct verb forms after adjectives, prefer concise collocations like 'write by hand' and 'fill out documents'.
× Of course, because of my job, I have to, uh, use my laptop keyboard every day. And it's, uh, really useful in order to, uh, fill your, uh, brain, uh, and it's, uh, kind of a bit, uh, physical activity.
✓ Of course, because of my job I have to use my laptop keyboard every day. It's really useful for training my brain, and it's a bit of a physical activity.
The phrase 'useful in order to fill your brain' is ungrammatical and unclear; likely intended 'useful for training/exercising the brain'. 'Fill' is wrong collocation. 'Kind of a bit physical activity' is incorrect word order and article use; use 'a bit of a physical activity' or better 'a bit of physical activity'. Suggestions: choose correct collocations (train/exercise the brain), simplify filler words, and use correct noun phrases ('a bit of physical activity').
× Oh, it was so many years ago that I don't actually, uh, even remember, uh, when I, when I have learned about it, but uh, nowadays I can say that, uh, I can type even with my eyes closed and it's really good, Uh, because, uh, sometimes we have to feel more than we are.
✓ Oh, it was so many years ago that I don't actually even remember when I learned it, but nowadays I can say that I can type even with my eyes closed and it's really good, because sometimes we have to feel more than we are.
The phrase 'when I have learned about it' uses present perfect incorrectly for a past finished event; use simple past 'learned'. Remove redundant words 'about it' after 'learned'. The final clause 'we have to feel more than we are' is unclear but grammatically can remain; consider rephrasing to 'we sometimes have to rely on feeling rather than looking' for clarity. Suggestions: use simple past for completed past actions with a definite time or vague long-ago reference and remove filler words.
× Even so, I can say that I am professional, uh, typer, umm, I'm not, uh, doing some kind of exercise or, uh, additional things in order to improve my typing. But I think, uh, there is in our century, there is so many apps and activities that with what you can improve it.
✓ Even so, I can say that I am a professional typist, but I'm not doing any specific exercises or extra activities to improve my typing. However, I think there are many apps and activities nowadays that can help you improve.
'Professional, uh, typer' is ungrammatical; use 'a professional typist' (noun) or 'a professional typist'. Missing article 'a' before 'professional'. 'I'm not doing some kind of exercise' is incorrect quantifier and article use; use 'not doing any specific exercises' or 'not practicing'. The sentence 'there is in our century, there is so many apps' has wrong word order and verb agreement; use 'there are many apps nowadays'. 'That with what you can improve it' is ungrammatical; use 'that can help you improve' or 'with which you can improve'. Suggestions: use correct nouns ('typist'), include articles, use 'any' for negative statements, ensure subject-verb agreement ('there are'), and use relative clauses properly.
