Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Candidato
Yes, I do. I practice typing with my laptop every day, but there is a serious problem with my laptop keyboard. Therefore I have to use another external keyboard. However, the quality of the external keyboard is a bit terrible, so my typing speed isn't fast as usual.

Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Puntuación: 72.0Sugerencia: Make the answer more natural and grammatically correct, use a clear topic sentence, avoid filler sounds, and give one specific reason with a linking word. Also correct tense and article use (e.g., "I started practicing" not "I start").
Ejemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting because I learned to type when I was very young, so I can transfer my thoughts into text quickly. Furthermore, typing is more convenient in professional settings and when working in low light because you can edit and share documents easily.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Puntuación: 78.0Sugerencia: Begin with a direct topic sentence and reduce repetition. Use clearer linking words to show cause and effect, correct small errors ("terrible" is fine but consider "poor quality"), and give one concise consequence or feeling.
Ejemplo: Yes, I type on my laptop every day, but because the built-in keyboard is faulty I use an external one. Unfortunately, the external keyboard is of poor quality, so my typing speed and accuracy are lower than usual.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Puntuación: 70.0Sugerencia: Make sentences grammatically correct and avoid small mistakes ("secondary student" could be "a secondary school student"; "tie" should be "type"). Use a linking word to connect past learning to present ability and be realistic about claims (100 wpm is high—if accurate, state context).
Ejemplo: I began learning to type when I was a secondary school student because my aunt advised me it would help my future career. As a result, I can now type at a relatively high speed—about 100 words per minute when I practice regularly.
How do you improve your typing?
Puntuación: 85.0Sugerencia: This answer is clear and well-structured but can be slightly tightened and corrected for word forms ("online lesson" → "online lessons"; "structure drills" → "structured drills"). Use linking words to sequence methods and give one specific measurable result.
Ejemplo: I improve my typing by practising regularly with online lessons and typing games to build speed and accuracy. For example, I spend 15–20 minutes daily on structured drills, focus on correct finger placement and posture to reduce errors, and track my progress, which has helped increase my accuracy by about 10%.
× I start practicing typing when I was so young and now it's helped me transfer my thought into text so quickly.
✓ I started practicing typing when I was very young and now it helps me transfer my thoughts into text very quickly.
Tense inconsistency and form errors: 'start practicing' is present while 'when I was' is past, so use past 'started'. 'so young' is informal; 'very young' is better. 'it's helped' is present perfect but the intended meaning is a current ability, so use simple present 'helps'. 'thought' should be plural 'thoughts'. Suggestion: keep past for the beginning action and simple present for current general truth.
× Uh, and I think is so convenient not only in daylight but also in professional environment.
✓ Uh, and I think it is very convenient not only in daylight but also in a professional environment.
Missing subject 'it' and weak adverb 'so' in formal speech; use 'very'. Also missing article before 'professional environment' — use 'a professional environment'. Suggest: include the subject, use appropriate adverb 'very', and add the article.
× Yes, I do. I practice typing with my laptop every day, but there is a serious problem with my laptop keyboard.
✓ Yes, I do. I practice typing on my laptop every day, but there is a serious problem with my laptop's keyboard.
Preposition and possessive issue: use 'on' with 'practice typing on my laptop'. Also show possession with 'laptop's keyboard' rather than 'with my laptop keyboard' for clarity. Suggest: use correct preposition and possessive form.
× However, the quality of the external keyboard is a bit terrible, so my typing speed isn't fast as usual.
✓ However, the quality of the external keyboard is quite poor, so my typing speed isn't as fast as usual.
Word choice and comparison structure: 'terrible' is acceptable but 'quite poor' is more natural. Comparative structure requires 'as fast as', not 'fast as'. Suggest: use 'quite poor' and 'as fast as usual' for correct comparison.
× I started practicing typing when I was a secondary student.
✓ I started practicing typing when I was a secondary-school student.
Word choice and form: use 'secondary-school student' or 'a secondary student' is acceptable but hyphenated compound 'secondary-school student' is clearer. Tense is correct (past). Suggest: prefer 'secondary-school student' or 'in secondary school'.
× At that time, my aunt gave me some advice saying that typing could help me with future career.
✓ At that time, my aunt gave me some advice, saying that typing could help me with my future career.
Missing possessive article before 'future career' — use 'my future career'. Also add a comma before the participial phrase for clarity. Suggest: include 'my' and punctuation.
× At present, I'm able to tie a relatively high speed, around 100 words per minute.
✓ At present, I'm able to type at a relatively high speed, around 100 words per minute.
Typo 'tie' should be 'type' and collocation requires 'type at a speed' rather than 'type a speed'. Suggest: correct typo and use 'type at a relatively high speed'.
× I practice typing regularly, using online lesson and typing games to build speed and accuracy.
✓ I practice typing regularly, using online lessons and typing games to build speed and accuracy.
Count noun 'lesson' needs plural 'lessons' because plural quantifier implied. Suggest: use 'online lessons' to match 'typing games'.
× For example, I spend 15 to 20 minutes daily on structure drills.
✓ For example, I spend 15 to 20 minutes a day on structured drills.
Phrase 'daily' is acceptable but 'a day' is more natural here. 'Structure drills' is awkward; 'structured drills' or 'structure drills' could be used, but 'structured drills' is clearer. Suggest: use 'a day' and 'structured drills'.
× I also focus on proper finger placement and posture to reduce errors and fatigue, and I track my progress to stay motivated.
✓ I also focus on proper finger placement and posture to reduce errors and fatigue, and I track my progress to stay motivated.
