Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Be more natural and concise. Start with a direct topic sentence, avoid fillers, correct grammar, and give a clear reason with a specific example. Use linking words to connect ideas.
Example: I prefer handwriting to typing because I've practiced it since childhood. For example, I used to write diary entries and school notes every day, so handwriting feels more natural and personal to me.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: Answer directly, remove hesitations, and use precise vocabulary. State which device and give a brief reason with linking words. Correct unclear phrases (e.g., "necessary scale").
Example: Yes, I type on a laptop keyboard every day because my job requires constant emails and reports. As a result, I spend several hours a day working on my laptop.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Give a clear time reference and avoid vague repetition. Use correct verbs and eliminate incorrect phrases like "touched me this scale." Add a specific detail about the lesson or how long it took to learn.
Example: I learned to type in primary school during computer classes when I was about eight years old. My teacher taught us basic typing exercises, and we practiced for several months until we were comfortable with the keyboard.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Be specific about methods and give concrete examples. Remove filler words and use linking words to structure the answer (e.g., "first," "then"). Mention measurable ways to improve (practice time, tools, drills).
Example: I improve my typing by practicing for 20 minutes each day using online typing exercises. Also, I focus on accuracy first, then increase speed, and I use typing software that gives feedback on errors.
× Well, to be honest, I do like the handwriting more because I'm very familiar with it, especially in my childrenhood.
✓ Well, to be honest, I do prefer handwriting because I'm very familiar with it, especially in my childhood.
'like the handwriting more' is awkward; 'prefer handwriting' is more natural. 'childrenhood' is incorrect; correct form is 'childhood'. Use 'prefer' to compare general preference rather than 'do like ... more'. Also remove the definite article before 'handwriting' when speaking generally.
× Uh, uh, I think, uh, uh, I type on the computer keyboard every day. Uh, especially when I work at my company, it's, uh, necessary scale in today.
✓ I type on a computer keyboard every day, especially when I work at my company; it's necessary nowadays.
Remove filler words and correct sentence structure. 'the computer keyboard' can be 'a computer keyboard' for general habit. 'it's necessary scale in today' is ungrammatical; 'it's necessary nowadays' correctly expresses current necessity. Use a semicolon or conjunction to connect related clauses.
× Well, I think it happened in my primary school, in the computer classes I think. So at that time my teacher touched me this scale.
✓ I learned in primary school during computer classes. At that time my teacher introduced me to typing.
'it happened' is vague; use 'I learned' to answer 'When did you learn'. 'my primary school, in the computer classes I think' is wordy and repetitive. 'my teacher touched me this scale' is incorrect English; likely intended 'introduced me to typing'. Use clear verbs and logical word order.
× Uh, well, I think, umm, just, uh, to practice it, uh, and uh, uh, to use it in every day.
✓ Well, I think I just practice it and use it every day.
Remove fillers. 'to practice it, and to use it in every day' has incorrect preposition use; 'every day' should not have 'in' and should be two words. Also use simple present for habitual actions: 'I practice' and 'use'.
