× But I believe that I should uh, write more since the handwriting can helps uh, boost my brain and helps me memorize umm, what I take notes better.
✓ But I believe that I should write more since handwriting can help boost my brain and help me memorize what I take notes on better.
Errors: 'the handwriting' — unnecessary definite article; 'can helps' and 'helps' — incorrect verb forms after modal/subject (subject-verb agreement and modal construction). After 'can' use base form 'help'. Use parallel structure: 'help boost' and 'help me memorize'. Also include preposition 'on' after 'take notes' to be idiomatic. Suggestion: remove filler 'uh' and 'umm', use 'handwriting' without 'the', use base verb forms after modal or plural subject, and keep parallel verbs.
× To be honest, I don't have any lapt, I don't have any desktop.
✓ To be honest, I don't have a laptop, and I don't have a desktop.
Errors: 'lapt' is a typo for 'laptop'. 'Any' is inappropriate before singular countable nouns in affirmative/negative contexts; use 'a' or 'a/an'. Also run-on sentence: add conjunction 'and'. Suggestion: correct spelling, use 'a' for singular countable nouns when appropriate, and join clauses properly.
× I own a laptop so I often depend on it for typing and moreover I do prefer laptop keyboard because it's more portable and compact.
✓ I own a laptop, so I often depend on it for typing; moreover, I prefer the laptop keyboard because it's more portable and compact.
Errors: Run-on and awkward phrasing. 'I do prefer laptop keyboard' needs article 'the' before 'laptop keyboard' and unnecessary auxiliary 'do'. Use punctuation to separate clauses. Suggestion: add commas or semicolons, remove unnecessary 'do', include definite article when referring to a specific thing (the laptop's keyboard).
× I can type by DZ uh quite easily using it.
✓ I can type quite easily using it.
Errors: 'by DZ' is unclear/ungrammatical and likely filler or incorrect pronoun/phrase. Remove unclear fragment. Suggestion: eliminate unclear words and fillers; keep concise: 'I can type quite easily using it.'
× I've worn to type on a keyboard for a really long time.
✓ I've learned to type on a keyboard for a really long time.
Errors: 'worn' is incorrect verb choice and form. The correct verb is 'learned' (past participle 'learned' with present perfect 'have'). Suggestion: use 'learned to type' to express acquiring the skill over time.
× As far as I can remember, it's about when I was in secondary when I had to tighten my assignments.
✓ As far as I can remember, it was when I was in secondary school and had to turn in my assignments.
Errors: 'it's about when' is awkward; use 'it was when'. 'Secondary' should be 'secondary school'. 'Tighten my assignments' is wrong collocation — correct is 'turn in' or 'submit'. Suggestion: use correct noun 'secondary school' and appropriate verb for submitting work.
× Since then, I have practiced typing regularly and have developed my typing skill.
✓ Since then, I have practiced typing regularly and have developed my typing skills.
Errors: 'my typing skill' — uncountable/measure vs idiomatic plural 'typing skills'. Suggestion: use 'typing skills' to refer to ability in general.
× I can now type quite quickly and accurately.
✓ I can now type quite quickly and accurately.
No grammatical error detected; sentence is correct. Keep present ability tense 'can'. Suggestion: none.
× I think the best way for anyone to practice is to improve is to practice and of course, practice typing regularly is the best way for us to develop our typing skill well, I for example, I often type my assignments and I try to type many things not necessary so that I.
✓ I think the best way for anyone to improve is to practice; of course, practicing typing regularly is the best way to develop our typing skills. For example, I often type my assignments and try to type many different things so that I can improve.
Errors: Repetition, run-on sentence, awkward structure, and incomplete ending. 'Practice is to improve is to practice' is repetitive. Use gerund 'practicing' for general advice. 'Typing skill' -> 'typing skills'. The final clause was incomplete; add 'so that I can improve' to complete the thought. Suggestion: simplify, avoid repetition, use gerunds for general statements, and complete clauses.
