Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Reduce repetition and fix grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Avoid repeating words (e.g., "I") and complete comparisons. Correct verb forms and articles.

Ejemplo: I prefer typing because it is faster and more efficient. For example, I can edit quickly and complete more tasks in less time, whereas handwriting often leads to more mistakes and slower progress.

Sugerencia: Make sentences complete and coherent. Use linking words like "however" appropriately and avoid filler words (umm). Clarify comparisons and use correct pronouns/articles. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Ejemplo: I usually type on my laptop every day because it is portable and convenient. However, when I am at school I use the desktop computers there because they are available for classes.

Sugerencia: Eliminate fillers and improve tense and article usage. Begin with a clear time reference, then give a specific reason or example. Use linking words like "because" to connect ideas and keep sentences concise.

Ejemplo: I learned to type when I was in primary school because my school had computer labs. Practising there helped me develop speed and accuracy early on.

Sugerencia: Be more direct and avoid vague phrasing. Start with a clear method, then give a specific example and use linking words like "for example". Remove unfinished sentence at the end.

Ejemplo: I improve my typing by practising every day and using online typing apps. For example, I use a typing tutor app for 20 minutes daily to work on accuracy and speed, and I also type regularly for school projects.

× I prefer typing because it's faster for me and I I cover a lot of work at the same time.

✓ I prefer typing because it's faster for me and I can cover a lot of work at the same time.

This sentence contains a duplicated word 'I' and a missing auxiliary verb 'can' to indicate ability. The error falls under sentence structure and subject-verb/modal usage; according to the allowed list, correct by adding the modal 'can' to show capability and remove the extra 'I'. Suggestion: read aloud to catch repeated words and ensure verbs or modals express ability (e.g., 'can').

× In contrast to handwriting where I make a lot of mistakes and slows my work.

✓ In contrast, with handwriting I make a lot of mistakes and it slows my work.

The original sentence lacks a clear subject for 'slows' causing a subject-verb agreement and sentence structure problem. 'Slows' needs a subject such as 'it' (handwriting). Also use 'in contrast, with handwriting' or 'compared to handwriting' for natural phrasing. Suggestion: ensure each clause has an explicit subject and that verbs agree with that subject.

× I tend to achieve more with typing when compared to handwriting.

✓ I tend to achieve more by typing than with handwriting.

The sentence is awkwardly phrased; 'when compared to' is acceptable but 'by typing than with handwriting' is clearer. This is primarily a present tense/style improvement to match habitual action. Suggestion: use consistent comparative structures ('by X than by Y') for clarity.

× And when I make mistake with my typing, I can erase it unlike.

✓ And when I make a mistake while typing, I can erase it, unlike with handwriting.

Missing article 'a' before 'mistake' and incomplete comparative phrase 'unlike' without specifying what it is unlike. This is a sentence structure and article error. Suggestion: include articles where needed and complete comparisons (e.g., 'unlike with handwriting').

× Usually I use my laptop to type every day.

✓ Usually I use my laptop to type every day.

This sentence is grammatically correct. No change needed. Keep present simple for habitual action.

× However when I'm in school where we have desktop, that becomes my umm type into.

✓ However, when I'm at school and we have desktop computers, I use those to type.

Problems include missing article ('a' or 'desktop computers'), awkward phrasing 'type into' and filler 'umm'. This is sentence structure and article use. Suggestion: remove fillers, use plural 'desktop computers' or 'a desktop computer', and a clear verb phrase 'I use those to type.'

× But most times when I work at home and when I'm not in school I do with my laptops and then laptops for me is OK, it's more confident that I can carry it about unlike.

✓ But most of the time when I work at home and I'm not in school, I use my laptop, which is convenient to carry around.

Errors include plural 'laptops' vs 'my laptop', incorrect pronoun/verb agreement 'laptops for me is', and awkward phrase 'more confident that I can carry it about unlike.' This is pronoun and sentence structure error. Suggestion: use singular 'my laptop' if referring to one device, ensure subject-verb agreement ('is' with singular), and use 'convenient' instead of 'confident' for intended meaning; complete comparisons properly.

× To be honest, I started using keyboard as way back when I was in primary school.

✓ To be honest, I started using a keyboard way back when I was in primary school.

Missing article 'a' before 'keyboard' and awkward 'as way back'. This is article and past tense/time-expression phrasing. Suggestion: include articles and use 'way back' without 'as' to indicate past time.

× My school has lots of labs, a desktop in stock for us to use to learn and that makes me, umm, learn how to type faster.

✓ My school had lots of labs and desktop computers for us to use to learn, which helped me learn to type faster.

Article and number issues: 'a desktop in stock' is awkward and inconsistent with 'lots of labs.' Also tense should match past 'started...when I was' so use past 'had' and 'helped.' Remove filler 'umm' and correct verb forms 'learn to type' rather than 'learn how to type' (both acceptable but keep concise). Suggestion: match tense across clauses and use plural 'desktop computers' or 'a desktop computer' consistently.

× I love it because it builds my typing skills and my speed and accuracy.

✓ I love it because it builds my typing skills, speed, and accuracy.

This sentence is grammatically acceptable; I simplified punctuation for clarity. Use commas to list items. Tense 'love' and 'builds' are fine for general preference.

× I think to improve on typing, how to use the keyboard on a regular basis in any projects you are doing and also you can download some apps from online that can help you type faster.

✓ I think to improve typing you should use the keyboard regularly in any projects you do, and you can also download apps online that help you type faster.

Problems: incorrect preposition 'improve on typing' (better 'improve typing' or 'improve at typing'), awkward phrasing 'how to use the keyboard', 'from online' should be 'online'. This is preposition and sentence structure errors. Suggestion: use 'improve typing' or 'improve at typing', 'use the keyboard regularly', and 'download apps online'. Keep verbs consistent and remove unnecessary words.

× So typing everyday for me helps me improve my skills, accuracy and also master the keyboard and that is key when you want to learn how to type.

✓ So typing every day helps me improve my skills and accuracy and helps me master the keyboard, which is key when you want to learn to type.

Issues: 'everyday' (adjective) should be 'every day' (adverbial), repetition 'helps me' could be clarified, and 'learn how to type' can be 'learn to type.' This is present tense/style and adverb usage. Suggestion: use 'every day' for frequency and avoid redundant phrasing.

× So by daily incorporating.

✓ So by incorporating it into my daily routine, I improve steadily.

This fragment lacks a main verb and object; it's an incomplete sentence. This is a sentence structure error. Suggestion: complete the thought by adding what is incorporated and the result (e.g., 'incorporating it into my daily routine').
