Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Candidato
I think my answer would vary based on different scenarios. While writing letters to express my love to friends or family, I prefer the old school method which is handwriting. But when sending text messages I would definitely prefer typing more.

Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Candidato
During my work I usually type on a laptop keyboard, but back in home I use my own desktop, but most of the time I type using my phone as it is more convenient.

When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Candidato
I do not quite remember when I first fully learned, but I think it comes naturally when I grow up. I've had IT classes when I was in year 7 and I think that is when I developed typing skills.

How do you improve your typing?
Candidato
As far as I've known, there are some websites online that you could use to train your typing speed and also the accuracy of it. Other than that, I think by practicing daily you would get better at it.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Puntuación: 78.0Sugerencia: Be more concise and use clearer topic sentence. Reduce redundancy and add a brief reason contrasting both preferences. Use linking word to connect ideas.
Ejemplo: It depends on the situation: for personal, sentimental messages like letters to family I prefer handwriting because it feels more personal, whereas for quick messages and work-related texts I prefer typing because it is faster and more convenient.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Puntuación: 72.0Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence and avoid repeating 'but'. Organize devices by frequency and use linking words (firstly, however, usually). Provide a short reason for your main choice.
Ejemplo: I usually type on my phone most days because it's the most convenient; for work I mainly use a laptop, and at home I occasionally use my desktop for longer tasks that need a bigger screen.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Puntuación: 75.0Sugerencia: Start with a clear time reference and avoid vague phrasing like 'I do not quite remember' as a main clause. Use linking words to connect memory and evidence (for example, 'however' or 'in fact'). Be specific about age or school year and what helped you learn.
Ejemplo: I can't remember the exact moment, but I developed most of my typing skills in Year 7 during IT classes; after that, regular computer use at school and home helped me improve.

Ejemplo: I improve my typing by practicing daily and using online trainers; for example, I use typing practice websites to increase speed and accuracy, and I also do timed exercises and focus on proper finger placement to reduce mistakes.
× I think my answer would vary based on different scenarios.
✓ I think my answer would vary depending on the scenario.
The original uses 'based on different scenarios' which is not ungrammatical but 'depending on' is a more natural fixed expression to indicate conditional variation. This fits 'There be issue' loosely as a phrasing/structure problem; use 'depending on' + singular/plural consistency ('the scenario' or 'different scenarios') for clarity.
× While writing letters to express my love to friends or family, I prefer the old school method which is handwriting.
✓ When I write letters to express my affection to friends or family, I prefer the old-school method, handwriting.
Use 'when I write' (more natural) and 'the old-school method' needs a hyphen and definite article. Also 'love' is heavy for general letters; 'affection' is more natural. The sentence structure benefits from a comma before the explanation 'handwriting'.
× But when sending text messages I would definitely prefer typing more.
✓ But when I send text messages, I definitely prefer typing.
Use simple present 'I send' and 'I prefer' to express habitual action. 'Would' is conditional/unnecessary. Remove 'more' which is redundant; add comma after adverbial clause.
× During my work I usually type on a laptop keyboard, but back in home I use my own desktop, but most of the time I type using my phone as it is more convenient.
✓ At work I usually type on a laptop keyboard, but at home I use my desktop; most of the time I type on my phone because it is more convenient.
Use 'At work' and 'at home' for locations. Replace 'back in home' with 'at home'. Use 'desktop' without 'my own' which is redundant. Use semicolon or shorter clauses; 'type on my phone' is the correct preposition. 'Because' is more natural than 'as' here.
× When did you learn how to type on a keyboard? Student: I do not quite remember when I first fully learned, but I think it comes naturally when I grow up.
✓ I do not quite remember when I first fully learned, but I think it came naturally as I grew up.
The question asked about a past event; responses should use past tense. Change 'comes' and 'grow' to past 'came' and 'grew' to match time reference.
× I've had IT classes when I was in year 7 and I think that is when I developed typing skills.
✓ I had IT classes when I was in Year 7, and I think that is when I developed my typing skills.
Use simple past 'I had' to describe completed past events. Capitalize 'Year 7' and add 'my' for clarity before 'typing skills'.
× As far as I've known, there are some websites online that you could use to train your typing speed and also the accuracy of it.
✓ As far as I know, there are websites you can use to train your typing speed and accuracy.
Use present perfect 'I've known' is awkward; 'As far as I know' is standard. Use 'can' instead of 'could' for general ability. 'Accuracy of it' is wordy; 'accuracy' suffices. Remove 'online' or use it only if necessary.
× Other than that, I think by practicing daily you would get better at it.
✓ Other than that, I think that by practicing daily you will get better at it.
Use future 'will' to express a confident prediction about a habitual action leading to improvement. 'Would' is conditional and weak here; include 'that' for clarity.
