Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make your response more concise and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid redundancy and fix grammar (e.g., "I can type faster than I can write notes").

Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because I can type much faster than I can write notes by hand. For example, when I need to take meeting notes or send messages, typing lets me record and share information quickly and accurately.

Suggestion: Open with a direct topic sentence and give one clear reason with a specific example. Improve cohesion by using linking words like "because" or "so" and correct small word choices (e.g., "use" instead of "tap").

Example: I usually use a desktop keyboard because I work on a desktop computer. For instance, the full-size keyboard and ergonomic setup help me type for long periods, so I can focus and produce higher-quality work.

Suggestion: Give a precise topic sentence with a clear time reference, then add one or two concise supporting details directly related to your own experience. Avoid vague historical statements unrelated to when you personally learned.

Example: I learned to type about 15 years ago when I started using computers at school. For example, teachers required us to submit assignments typed on a computer, so I practiced typing regularly in computer class.

Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence about your method, then give specific actions you take to improve, using linking words to connect ideas. Avoid repeating the same point; provide concrete practice methods and results.

Example: I improve my typing by doing daily practice exercises and using online typing tests to track my speed and accuracy. For example, I spend 20 minutes a day on drills and check my words-per-minute every week, which has steadily increased my speed.

× I prefer typing and that is because I can type faster on a keyboard that I can write a notes in a notebook for example.

✓ I prefer typing because I can type faster on a keyboard than I can write notes in a notebook, for example.

The sentence uses 'faster' correctly but misuses 'that' instead of the comparative conjunction 'than' and includes the article error 'a notes'. Replace 'that' with 'than' for comparisons and remove the incorrect article before the plural noun 'notes'. Also move 'for example' to the end for clearer flow.

× Typing also facilitates the ability to communicate with other people faster on messaging apps.

✓ Typing also makes it easier to communicate with other people faster on messaging apps.

'Facilitates the ability to communicate' is wordy and slightly awkward; while not strictly ungrammatical, replacing it with 'makes it easier to communicate' produces a clearer, more natural subject-verb relationship. This keeps verb agreement and improves style.

× I tap more often on a desktop keyboard and that is because I work with a desktop computer.

✓ I type more often on a desktop keyboard because I work on a desktop computer.

'Tap' is informal and unusual here; 'type' is the correct verb. Use 'because' without the filler 'and that is' to make the sentence concise. Also use 'work on a desktop computer' rather than 'work with' for natural collocation.

× For example, at work my desktop keyboard enables me to be productive and also to produce quality work.

✓ For example, at work my desktop keyboard helps me be productive and produce quality work.

'Enables me to be productive and also to produce quality work' is wordy and awkward. 'Helps me be' is a more natural verb/adverb construction. Remove the redundant 'also' for concision.

× I think that I learned typing on a keyboards approximately 15 years ago.

✓ I think that I learned to type on a keyboard approximately 15 years ago.

Use the infinitive 'to type' after 'learned' when describing acquiring a skill. Fix pluralization: 'a keyboards' is incorrect; use 'a keyboard' (singular) or 'keyboards' without 'a'. Also keep past tense 'learned' consistent.

× With the introduction of computers, keyboards became more common in cafes and also in libraries.

✓ With the introduction of computers, keyboards became more common in cafes and libraries.

Sentence is mostly correct; remove the redundant 'also' to improve naturalness and flow.

× At school, most teachers would ask us to provide texts which would be produced by computer.

✓ At school, most teachers would ask us to provide texts that were produced by a computer.

Use 'that' instead of 'which' in restrictive clauses for clarity. Also include the article 'a' before 'computer' or rephrase as 'produced by computer' depending on style; here 'a computer' is more natural. Use past passive 'were produced' to match 'would ask' in past context.

× I improve my typing by typing more.

✓ I improve my typing by practicing more.

Repeating 'typing' is redundant. Use 'practicing' to indicate the habitual present action that improves skill; present simple 'improve' is fine.

× The more you type, the better and the faster you write.

✓ The more you type, the better and faster you become at it.

'You write' is odd when referring to typing skill; say 'you become better and faster at it' for natural present-tense general statement. This corrects collocation and clarity.

× Therefore, it is important for people to practice typing faster.

✓ Therefore, it is important for people to practice typing so they can become faster.

'Practice typing faster' is slightly unclear; 'practice typing so they can become faster' clarifies purpose and keeps present-tense general advice.
