Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (uh, I mean), and give one or two specific reasons with a linking word. Also correct grammar (e.g., “the same format and font size”).

Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because my handwriting is quite messy. Moreover, typing produces neat, uniform text which is easier to read and edit.

Suggestion: Provide a clear topic sentence and reduce repetition. Use linking words to explain reasons and give a specific example of tasks you do. Fix grammar such as “I am used to my laptop” and “every day.”

Example: I usually type on my laptop keyboard because I have used the same laptop since university. For example, I use it every day for tasks like editing documents, checking emails and browsing research.

Suggestion: Answer directly with a specific time frame and reason. Avoid hesitations and unclear grammar (“it can has”). Mention a concrete learning method or moment to add detail.

Example: I learned to type in my early teens when I started using a smartphone and a family computer. Because I practiced on my phone and laptop every day, I picked up the keyboard layout quickly.

Suggestion: Give a clear, structured answer: start with topic sentence, then explain the routine with specific details and linking words. Remove hesitations and correct tense (use present simple for habits).

Example: I improve my typing by practicing for at least 30 minutes every day. Specifically, I give myself timed writing tasks such as typing short essays or emails, which helps increase both speed and accuracy.

× I usually uh, type on uh, keyboard of my laptop uh, because I uh, had my laptop from my university time and uh, now I am used to of my laptop uh, because I use it everyday for different tasks like to edit.

✓ I usually type on the keyboard of my laptop because I have had my laptop since university and now I am used to my laptop because I use it every day for different tasks, like editing.

Errors: incorrect preposition use ('on keyboard of' should be 'on the keyboard of'), incorrect tense and auxiliary ('had my laptop from my university time' -> 'have had my laptop since university'), and wrong preposition with 'used to' ('used to of' -> 'used to'). Also 'everyday' as adjective vs 'every day' (here needs two words). Suggestions: Use appropriate prepositions ('on the keyboard of', 'since' for a start point), use present perfect 'have had' to link past possession to present, use 'used to' without 'of', and use 'every day' when meaning each day. Ensure verbs like 'editing' use gerund after 'like'.

× I absolutely prefer typing because my handwriting is, uh, quite messy and, uh, while typing, whatever you type that will be written in the same format and equal alphabetical size and equals font size, I mean to say.

✓ I absolutely prefer typing because my handwriting is quite messy, and when typing, what you type appears in the same format and equal font size.

Errors: awkward tense and structure ('while typing, whatever you type that will be written' is wordy and uses future-like 'will be' in a general statement). Use simple present for general truths ('what you type appears'). 'Equal alphabetical size and equals font size' is ungrammatical; use 'equal font size'. Suggestions: Use simple present for habitual/general facts, simplify clauses (use 'when' or 'as' and concise phrasing), and choose correct noun phrases ('font size').

× I usually use my phone daily as it can has the same keyboard.

✓ I usually use my phone daily as it can have the same keyboard.

Error: incorrect verb form after modal 'can' ('can has' should be 'can have'). After modals, use the base form of the verb. Suggestion: After 'can', always use the base verb (have). Alternatively say 'because it has the same keyboard' if not using a modal.

× Actually, that was not a difficult task because I uh perform uh, I mean to say that I usually use my phone daily as it can has the same keyboard.

✓ Actually, that was not a difficult task because I performed it before; I usually use my phone daily since it has the same keyboard.

Errors: tense inconsistency and incorrect verb forms. 'I perform' (present) doesn't match past context 'that was'; use past 'performed' or reframe. 'can has' is incorrect as noted earlier. Suggestions: Keep tense consistent (use past when referring to a past learning event), and use correct verb forms after modals or simply use present 'has' for habitual facts.

× I improve my writing, uh, sorry, I improved my typing by daily using a laptop, uh, for at least 30 minutes.

✓ I improve my typing by using my laptop every day for at least 30 minutes.

Errors: mixed tenses ('I improve' present with 'I improved' past) and awkward adverb placement ('by daily using' is unnatural). Use present simple for habitual action ('I improve' or 'I improve my typing') and place adverbs correctly ('every day' after the verb or before the time phrase). Use gerund 'using' without splitting with 'daily' incorrectly.

× I assigned umm, a writing task to me daily and I write it within a time limit and it helps me to improve.

✓ I assign myself a writing task every day and write it within a time limit, which helps me improve.

Errors: incorrect reflexive pronoun use and tense. 'Assigned a writing task to me' is awkward; use the reflexive 'assign myself'. Also tense should match habit ('assign' not 'assigned') and 'every day' preferred. 'Helps me to improve' is acceptable but more natural 'helps me improve'. Suggestions: Use reflexive pronouns when the subject and object are the same, keep verb tenses consistent for habitual actions, and streamline phrases.
