Part 1
Examiner
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Candidate
What actually it depends on what I'm writing for. If it's for work or report, I prefer to use my laptop, but if it's just for notes and I need something colourful, I'll just use my hand Whiting because it's easy for me to remember which part or which, uh, notes or information that I need.

Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid filler words and pronunciation mistakes (e.g. 'handwriting').
Example: I prefer typing for formal work but handwriting for quick, colourful notes. For example, I type reports on my laptop because they must be emailed, whereas I write class notes by hand with coloured pens to help me remember important points.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence and then one specific reason with correct grammar and linking words. Reduce repetition and use precise vocabulary (e.g. 'require' -> 'requires', 'every day').
Example: Yes, I use a laptop every day because my job requires me to attend Google Meet meetings and prepare reports that must be emailed. As a result, I type on the laptop keyboard throughout the workday.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Score: 75.0Suggestion: Answer directly with a clear past-time statement, then add a brief supporting detail. Avoid hedging phrases like 'I think' and improve sentence structure.
Example: I learned to type when I was about ten years old. My family got a home computer then, so I spent time practicing basic typing skills while doing schoolwork.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: Give a clear method and specific activities with better vocabulary (e.g. 'speed' instead of 'fastness'). Avoid hesitation and be more organized: state the method, explain how you do it, and give a result.
Example: I improve my typing by regular practice, using online typing exercises and timed tests to increase my speed and accuracy. For example, I spend 15 minutes each evening on a typing website and track my WPM to see improvement.
× What actually it depends on what I'm writing for.
✓ What I actually prefer depends on what I'm writing for.
Original sentence has incorrect word order and redundant pronoun 'it', causing a sentence structure error. Reordering to 'What I actually prefer depends on...' places subject ('What I actually prefer') before the verb ('depends') and removes the extraneous 'it'. This makes the sentence grammatical and clearer.
× If it's for work or report, I prefer to use my laptop, but if it's just for notes and I need something colourful, I'll just use my hand Whiting because it's easy for me to remember which part or which, uh, notes or information that I need.
✓ If it's for work or a report, I prefer to use my laptop, but if it's just for notes and I need something colourful, I'll just write by hand because it's easier for me to remember which parts or which notes or information I need.
There are multiple issues: missing article before 'report' (article error), incorrect phrase 'use my hand Whiting' (word choice/verb form), and pronoun/number inconsistencies like 'which part or which, uh, notes' (incorrect pronoun/pronoun-number usage). The correction adds the article 'a', replaces the phrase with 'write by hand', pluralizes 'part' to 'parts' to match 'notes', and removes filler words. This yields grammatical pronoun and noun agreement and correct verb use.
× Yes everyday because my job require me to use laptop for Google meet and also for report because they need to send it through e-mail so I need to type it on the keyboard.
✓ Yes, every day, because my job requires me to use a laptop for Google Meet and also to prepare reports that they need to send by e-mail, so I need to type them on the keyboard.
Multiple errors: 'everyday' should be 'every day' (word choice), subject-verb agreement 'require' should be 'requires' (subject-verb agreement), missing article 'a laptop', incorrect capitalization 'Google Meet', and awkward phrasing 'for report'/'it' (number/pronoun issues). The correction fixes adverb spacing, verb agreement, articles, capitalization, and pronoun-number consistency ('reports' and 'them').
× Well, I don't remember very well, but probably I was 10 years old.
✓ Well, I don't remember very well, but I was probably 10 years old.
Placement of 'probably' is awkward; moving it to immediately before the age produces a more natural past tense statement. The tense 'was' is correct for referring to age in the past.
× That's where I've been exposed to computer and that's where I learned how to use the keyboard, I think.
✓ That's where I was first exposed to computers, and that's where I learned how to use the keyboard, I think.
'I've been exposed to computer' is ungrammatical: passive perfect continuous with incorrect object form. Use simple past 'was exposed' and plural 'computers' for natural expression. Adding 'first' clarifies timing; connecting clauses with 'and' fixes run-on structure.
× Well, I don't know, maybe, uh, practice.
✓ Well, I don't know; maybe practice.
Original contains filler words and a fragment. Turning it into 'maybe practice' with proper punctuation yields a concise, grammatical response. The structure issue is removing fragmented speech.
× Well, practice makes perfect, right? So, uh, whenever you have time or work be you can use your laptop or your keyboard to practice, uh, your pace and your fastness of typing you.
✓ Well, practice makes perfect, right? So whenever you have time or during work you can use your laptop or keyboard to practice your typing speed and accuracy.
Many errors: awkward phrase 'work be you', incorrect noun 'fastness' (not standard), wrong word order 'typing you'. The correction replaces awkward phrasing with 'during work', uses the nouns 'typing speed and accuracy' which are the correct terms for 'pace' and 'fastness', and removes filler words. This fixes adjective/adverb misuse and overall sentence clarity.
