× I prefer typing because I use my laptop uh, frequently, so I don't have any idea to handwriting because it almost about three years I have been, uh, retired from handwriting.
✓ I prefer typing because I use my laptop frequently, and I don't know how to write neatly by hand anymore because I have hardly written by hand for almost three years.
Errors: incorrect tense and awkward phrasing. 'I don't have any idea to handwriting' is ungrammatical; use 'I don't know how to write neatly by hand' or 'I no longer handwrite.' 'it almost about three years I have been retired from handwriting' mixes tense and idioms; correct to 'I have hardly written by hand for almost three years.' Suggestion: use present perfect 'have hardly written' to indicate an action not done over a period up to now and simplify wording.
× I prefer to typing in a laptop because it is been on my daily usage of.
✓ I prefer typing on a laptop because I use it daily.
Errors: incorrect use of infinitive + -ing and wrong preposition. 'prefer to typing' should be 'prefer typing' or 'prefer to type.' 'in a laptop' should be 'on a laptop.' 'it is been on my daily usage of' is ungrammatical; use 'I use it daily.' Suggestion: choose correct verb form (base or -ing) after 'prefer' and use correct preposition and concise phrasing.
× As I have both, uh, desktop and a laptop, but I usually, uh, use my laptop because, uh, there are my different kinds of, uh, study I things and many kinds of movies or different kinds of videos.
✓ I have both a desktop and a laptop, but I usually use my laptop because it contains my study materials and many movies and videos.
Errors: incorrect or missing articles and awkward noun phrases. 'As I have both, desktop and a laptop' needs 'a desktop and a laptop.' 'there are my different kinds of study I things' is ungrammatical; correct to 'it contains my study materials.' Simplify 'many kinds of movies or different kinds of videos' to 'many movies and videos.' Suggestion: use articles with singular countable nouns and replace vague phrases with precise nouns.
× So I prefer to laptop and playing games.
✓ So I prefer the laptop for playing games.
Errors: missing article and wrong verb form. 'prefer to laptop' is incorrect; use 'prefer the laptop.' Also use preposition 'for' before the gerund 'playing games.' Suggestion: use 'prefer' + noun/pronoun and 'for' + gerund to express purpose.
× It's been almost, uh, nine to 10 years because, uh, we have a computer class from since, uh, since class 6 and I, I got my first laptop in the class 9, so I have been typing, uh, in a computer or a laptop, uh, almost five to six years.
✓ It's been almost nine to ten years because we have had computer classes since grade 6, and I got my first laptop in grade 9, so I have been typing on a computer or a laptop for almost five to six years.
Errors: incorrect tense forms and prepositions. 'we have a computer class from since' should be 'we have had computer classes since.' 'in the class 9' should be 'in grade 9.' Use 'typing on a computer' (not 'in') and 'for almost five to six years' to indicate duration. Suggestion: use present perfect 'have had' for an action starting in the past and continuing, and 'for' to state durations.
× I wrote, I improved my typing by daily use of laptop.
✓ I improved my typing by using my laptop every day.
Errors: incorrect verb tense and missing preposition/article. 'I wrote,' is unnecessary and confusing. 'by daily use of laptop' should be 'by using my laptop every day' or 'through daily use of my laptop.' Suggestion: use 'by' + gerund to show method and include articles for singular nouns.
× Whenever I play different kinds of games and a different kinds of working or studying, I prefer to choose typing uh more than or handwriting, so I learn quickly.
✓ Whenever I play different games or do different kinds of work or study, I choose typing rather than handwriting, so I learn quickly.
Errors: incorrect articles and prepositions and awkward phrasing. 'a different kinds of working' is wrong; use 'do different kinds of work.' 'prefer to choose typing more than or handwriting' should be 'choose typing rather than handwriting.' Suggestion: use 'choose' or 'prefer' followed by noun or gerund correctly and use 'rather than' for comparisons.
