Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Be concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition and filler words, and fix grammar (e.g., "not good enough for everyone"). Add one brief supporting reason with a linking word. Keep to under five sentences.
Example: I prefer typing to handwriting. The main reason is that my handwriting is not neat, so others often find it hard to read. Also, typing is faster and makes documents easier to edit.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Give a direct answer followed by a clear, natural reason. Avoid fillers like "uh" and unclear phrases like "can slice sometimes." Use a linking word (e.g., "because" or "so") and a specific detail about comfort or portability.
Example: I use both, but I prefer my laptop keyboard because it's more comfortable and portable. For example, I can work anywhere with my laptop, whereas the desktop stays in one place.

× Actually, I prefer typing because my handwriting is not good good enough for everybody.
✓ Actually, I prefer typing because my handwriting is not good enough for everybody.
The error is a duplicated word 'good'. Remove the extra 'good' so the adverbial phrase 'good enough' correctly modifies 'handwriting'. Suggestion: proofread to eliminate repeated words.
× I everybody, uh, can read the typing.
✓ Everyone, uh, can read what I type.
'I everybody' is incorrect word order and pronoun choice. Use 'everyone' for 'everybody' as the subject and rephrase 'read the typing' to 'read what I type' for natural English. Suggestion: place subject before verb and use appropriate noun phrase.
× I use both, but I prefer to use my laptop, uh, keyboard because it's more comfortable.
✓ I use both, but I prefer my laptop keyboard because it's more comfortable.
The phrase 'prefer to use my laptop, uh, keyboard' is wordy and has an unnecessary comma. Simplify to 'prefer my laptop keyboard'. Suggestion: remove filler words and unnecessary 'to use' after 'prefer' when followed by a noun.
× Desktop keyboard can slice sometimes.
✓ A desktop keyboard can slip sometimes.
'Desktop keyboard' needs an article ('a') and 'slice' is likely the wrong verb for the intended meaning; 'slip' or 'stick' fits better. Also ensure singular subject 'keyboard' agrees with 'can'. Suggestion: add an article and choose the correct verb for the intended action.
× Actually I don't know how can I learn typing in computer because I use computer when I was a child.
✓ Actually, I don't know how I learned to type on a computer because I have used computers since I was a child.
Original mixes question word order and tenses incorrectly ('how can I learn' in a statement). Use past tense or present perfect to express past experience. 'Type on a computer' is the correct collocation. Suggestion: use 'learned to type' or 'have used' for ongoing experience and correct word order.
× It's a simple thing for for me when I was a child.
✓ It was a simple thing for me when I was a child.
Duplicate 'for' and tense mismatch: use past tense 'was' to match 'when I was a child'. Also remove the repeated word. Suggestion: ensure single preposition and consistent past tense.
× I use some websites for improving my typing skill.
✓ I use some websites to improve my typing skills.
'For improving' is less natural than the infinitive 'to improve' in this context. Use plural 'skills' for general ability. Suggestion: use 'to' + verb or 'to improve' and pluralize 'skills' when speaking generally.
× Uh, monkey keyboard is the best website for improving typing.
✓ Uh, Monkey Keyboard is the best website for improving my typing.
Proper noun should be capitalized and adding 'my' clarifies whose typing is being improved. Suggestion: capitalize names and include possessive when appropriate.
× I do almost one month I again I can gain more skill.
✓ In almost a month, I was able to improve a lot.
Original sentence has incorrect word order and tense. 'I do almost one month' is ungrammatical; express duration with 'in almost a month' or 'after about a month'. Use past tense 'was able to improve' to describe achieved progress. Suggestion: use clear time expressions and correct past tense verbs; say 'improve my skills' for clarity.
