Candidate
I prefer handwriting than typing because whenever I write on book I feel my emotions are absorbed like a person who listen to my thoughts while typing I don't feel such emotion to towards it. So that's why I prefer handwriting. And also we can you know we can write, write write ever.

How do you improve your typing?
Candidate
For improving my typing I never done anything else, I just randomly search topics on Google or YouTube when I was that age or something related to my studies. Uh.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Be concise and grammatically accurate. Start with a clear topic sentence (e.g. “I prefer handwriting.”), give one or two specific reasons with linking words, and avoid repetition and filler words. Correct common errors: use “prefer X to Y” not “prefer X than Y,” and say “when I write in a notebook” rather than “on book.”
Example: I prefer handwriting to typing because it helps me remember and process my thoughts better. For example, when I write in a notebook I feel more connected to my ideas, and I can easily sketch or annotate, which I can’t do as naturally when I type.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: Give a direct answer first, then add a brief, specific reason. Avoid hesitations (“uh”) and unclear phrasing. Use linking words to connect ideas and correct minor grammar: say “I usually type on my phone” and clarify why you don’t use a laptop or desktop for everyday typing.
Example: I usually type on my phone rather than a desktop or laptop. I use my laptop mainly for coding and testing, so for emails and messages I find my phone faster and more convenient.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: Answer directly with one clear sentence, then add a specific brief context or detail. Correct small errors: say “when I was 12” and “we bought a laptop.” Use a linking word to combine sentences smoothly.
Example: I learned to type on a keyboard when I was 12 years old. We bought a laptop at that time, so I taught myself basic typing and how to use the computer for schoolwork.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Provide a clear description of methods you use to improve typing and be specific about activities and frequency. Avoid negative phrasing like “I never done anything else.” Use correct grammar: “I have not done anything special; I used online videos” and give examples of practice routines or apps you use.
Example: I haven’t followed formal lessons; instead I improved my typing by watching YouTube tutorials and practising regularly with online typing tests. For example, I used a typing website twice a week for 15–20 minutes to increase my speed and accuracy.
× I prefer handwriting than typing because whenever I write on book I feel my emotions are absorbed like a person who listen to my thoughts while typing I don't feel such emotion to towards it.
✓ I prefer handwriting to typing because whenever I write in a book I feel my emotions are absorbed, like a person who listens to my thoughts; while typing, I don't feel such an emotional connection to it.
Errors: 'prefer ... than' should be 'prefer ... to' (preposition choice). 'write on book' should be 'write in a book' (correct preposition with 'book'). 'listen' needs third person singular 'listens' (subject-verb agreement / third person singular issue but corrected here as part of fluency). 'such emotion to towards it' is redundant and incorrect; use 'such an emotional connection to it'. Suggestion: use 'prefer A to B', use 'write in a book', ensure verbs agree with subjects, and avoid redundant prepositions.
× So that's why I prefer handwriting.
✓ So that's why I prefer handwriting.
Sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. Included here to indicate pronoun usage is acceptable.
× And also we can you know we can write, write write ever.
✓ Also, you can write continuously by hand for a long time.
Original is ungrammatical and unclear: repetition 'write, write write ever' is incorrect structure. Fix by providing a clear clause: 'write continuously by hand for a long time.' Suggestion: avoid filler words and repetitions; form a complete clause with subject and verb.
× For typing I usually use my phone.
✓ For typing, I usually use my phone.
Original is acceptable but needs a comma after introductory phrase for clarity. Pronoun use is fine. Suggestion: add comma for natural pause.
× I don't use laptop or desktop because uh that too I will use for my coding purpose, other testing purpose and all I will be using my phone.
✓ I don't use a laptop or desktop for typing because I use them for coding and testing; instead, I use my phone.
Errors: missing articles 'a laptop', awkward phrasing 'that too I will use for my coding purpose, other testing purpose and all'. Fix by reordering into clear clauses and using articles. Suggestion: use 'a laptop or desktop', state purposes clearly, and contrast with 'instead'. Also remove filler 'uh'.
× I learned how to type on keyboard when I was 12 years old.
✓ I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was 12 years old.
Missing article 'a' before 'keyboard'. Past tense 'learned' is correct. Suggestion: include indefinite article for countable nouns: 'a keyboard'.
× It was the first time where when we bought an laptop.
✓ It was the first time when we bought a laptop.
Errors: redundant 'where when'. Use either 'when' or 'that' but not both. Also 'an laptop' should be 'a laptop' because 'l' is a consonant sound. Suggestion: use 'the first time when...' or 'the first time that...' and correct article.
× So at that moment I started to study how to use laptop and how to type on the keyboard.
✓ So at that moment I started to learn how to use a laptop and how to type on the keyboard.
'started to study' is awkward; 'study' is possible but 'learn' is more natural here. Missing article 'a' before 'laptop'. Tense 'started' (past) is appropriate. Suggestion: use 'learn' or 'practice' for acquiring a skill and include articles for countable nouns.
× For improving my typing I never done anything else, I just randomly search topics on Google or YouTube when I was that age or something related to my studies.
✓ To improve my typing, I didn't do anything special; I just randomly searched topics on Google or YouTube related to my studies when I was that age.
Errors: 'For improving' should be 'To improve' (infinitive usage). 'I never done anything else' is incorrect past form; use 'I didn't do anything else' (past tense). 'search' should be past 'searched' to match past time 'when I was that age'. Sentence order and punctuation improved. Suggestion: match verb tense consistently and use correct auxiliary for negatives in past tense.
