Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Puntuación: 58.0Sugerencia: Be more concise and coherent: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Reduce hesitations and avoid repetition. Also correct grammar (e.g., tense and article use) and use more natural phrases like “I've always preferred handwriting” and “it helps me organize my thoughts.”
Ejemplo: I prefer handwriting to typing. For example, I’ve written by hand since childhood, so it feels more natural to me, and writing with a pen helps me organize my thoughts more clearly. However, I learned to type at university for projects, so I can type when necessary.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Puntuación: 65.0Sugerencia: Provide a direct topic sentence and follow with a concise reason using linking words. Remove fragments and finish sentences. Use specific vocabulary (e.g., ergonomics, workstation) and correct small errors like article use (“a desktop”).
Ejemplo: I usually type on a desktop rather than a laptop. In my clinic I have an ergonomic workstation with an appropriately sized desk and chair, so using a desktop keeps me comfortable and reduces strain during long periods of work.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Puntuación: 60.0Sugerencia: Give a clear time reference and connect ideas with linking words. Use correct expressions for grade/age (e.g., “grade 6” or “when I was in sixth grade”) and correct verb tenses. Add one specific detail about how your typing developed.

How do you improve your typing?

Ejemplo: I’m improving my typing in two ways. First, I downloaded an app that gives exercises and highlights my common mistakes, and second, my son practices with me and teaches newer techniques; together these approaches are helping me improve gradually.
× I always prefer handwriting over typing because since childhood I am writing only a Typing is really new to me.
✓ I have always preferred handwriting over typing because I have been writing by hand since childhood; typing is still new to me.
The original mixes tenses and has awkward sequence and punctuation. Use present perfect 'have always preferred' to express a continuing preference, 'have been writing by hand since childhood' for an action that started in the past and continues, and a clear independent clause for 'typing is still new to me.' This fixes sentence structure and tense consistency.
× When I uh, started my graduation in only in those years I had some project on in which I have to type.
✓ When I started my undergraduate studies a few years ago, I had some projects that required me to type.
The original has redundant words and mixed tenses. Use simple past 'started' and 'had' for completed past events, and change 'have to type' to 'required me to type' to match past context. Also clarify 'graduation' to 'undergraduate studies' and remove fillers.
× But most of the time I'm using pen and it also helps me to collect my thoughts.
✓ But most of the time I use a pen, and it also helps me collect my thoughts.
Present continuous 'I'm using' is unnecessary for habitual action; use simple present 'I use.' Omit 'to' after 'helps me' when followed by a verb. Also include the article 'a' before 'pen.'
× I always type on desktop and avoid using laptop because most of the time I'm sitting in my clinic and in.
✓ I always type on a desktop and avoid using a laptop because I spend most of the time sitting in my clinic.
Add articles 'a' before 'desktop' and 'laptop.' Remove the dangling preposition 'in.' Use simple present for habitual action and rephrase 'most of the time I'm sitting in my clinic' to 'I spend most of the time sitting in my clinic' for clarity.
× In my clinic I have already arranged everything from desktop to table height as well as my chair is also kept in that way so I remain in comfortable posture while.
✓ In my clinic I have already arranged everything, from the desktop and table height to the chair, so I can maintain a comfortable posture while working.
Original sentence is long and ungrammatical. Reorder items for parallel structure ('from the desktop and table height to the chair') and use 'maintain a comfortable posture while working' to finish the thought. Use commas to separate clauses.
× I was in 60 standard when I was exposed to using computer.
✓ I was in 6th grade when I was first exposed to using a computer.
'60 standard' is incorrect; likely '6th standard/grade.' Use 'was first exposed' to indicate the initial encounter and add the article 'a' before 'computer.' Use simple past for a past event.
× Since that I am learning a lot regarding typing and computers.
✓ Since then, I have learned a lot about typing and computers.
Use 'since then' not 'since that.' For actions from the past to now, use present perfect 'have learned.' Replace 'regarding' with 'about' for natural English.
× After that during my medicines study I didn't type that much but when I started my clinic.
✓ After that, during my medical studies I didn't type much, but I did when I started my clinic.
Use 'medical studies' not 'medicines study.' Keep simple past 'didn't type' and add 'did' to complete the contrast 'but I did when I started my clinic.' This fixes the incomplete clause.
× I recently downloaded a app that helps me to type and also, uh, let me know the kind of mistake I'm doing these days.
✓ I recently downloaded an app that helps me type and shows the kinds of mistakes I'm making these days.
Use 'an' before a vowel sound ('app'). For habitual action use simple present 'helps me type.' Replace 'let me know' with 'shows' and change 'the kind of mistake I'm doing' to 'the kinds of mistakes I'm making' for natural phrasing and correct verb collocation.
× My son is also learning typing and he is also teaching me how to type at a stage.
✓ My son is also learning to type, and he is teaching me step by step.
Use 'learning to type' not 'learning typing.' Remove repetitive 'also.' 'At a stage' is unclear; use 'step by step' or 'gradually' to convey progressive teaching. Keep present continuous for ongoing actions.
× And uh, secondly, I'm uh, learning it gradually.
✓ And I am learning it gradually.
Remove fillers and contractions to make the sentence clear. Present continuous 'I am learning' is acceptable for an ongoing process; simplify to 'I am learning it gradually.'
