Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Your answer is relevant and shows good knowledge, but it is a bit formal and slightly long. Make it more natural and concise: start with a clear topic sentence, give one brief reason, and avoid technical phrasing like "neurologically it is proven" without a quick plain explanation. Use a linking phrase to connect ideas.

Ejemplo: I prefer handwriting to typing. I find that writing notes by hand helps me remember things better, so unless I need a typed document, I usually choose pen and paper.

Sugerencia: Good direct response and clear reason. To improve, shorten sentences and use a linking word to make the contrast smoother. Replace formal phrases with natural ones (e.g., "stay off screens").

Ejemplo: No, I don't type on a computer every day. I try to stay off screens, so I usually write in a diary or on paper unless I need to submit something digitally.

Sugerencia: Your answer gives a clear timeline and personal detail, which is good. To be more natural and concise, combine short sentences and use linking words to show sequence. Avoid repeating phrases like "learning typing" and prefer "typing" or "touch-typing."

Ejemplo: I learned to type when I was 17. I took classes at a computer institute, where supportive classmates kept me motivated, so I picked up typing quickly and enjoyed it.

Sugerencia: Clear, concise and well-structured. To make it stronger, give a specific example of your practice routine and use a linking word to show cause and effect. That adds concreteness and variety to vocabulary.

Ejemplo: I improved my typing by practicing every day for 20 minutes. Because I practised consistently, my speed and accuracy improved noticeably over a few months.

× I prefer handwriting over typing because neurologically it is proven that it aids with better cognition and memory retention.

✓ I prefer handwriting to typing because it has been proven neurologically that it aids better cognition and memory retention.

Use 'prefer A to B' rather than 'prefer A over B' in formal contexts; 'it is proven' is passive but awkward — use 'it has been proven' or 'research has proven' to indicate evidence; 'aids with better cognition' is incorrect collocation — use 'aids better cognition' or 'helps with cognition.' Suggestion: 'I prefer handwriting to typing because research has shown that it helps with cognition and memory retention.'

× So unless there is a specific reason why I need the output to be typewritten, I always prefer handwriting.

✓ So unless there is a specific reason why I need the output to be typewritten, I always prefer handwriting.

No grammatical change needed; sentence is correct. Included here to show no article error present.

× I do not type on a desktop or a laptop keyboard every day because I consciously choose to stay off screen as much as possible.

✓ I do not type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day because I consciously choose to stay off-screen as much as possible.

Remove the article before 'laptop' when listing 'desktop or laptop keyboard.' Use a hyphen in 'off-screen' as a compound adjective or adverb in formal writing. Suggestion: 'I do not type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day because I try to stay off-screen as much as possible.'

× I prefer using a pen and paper or a diary to write down unless the task demands that the output should be typewritten.

✓ I prefer using a pen and paper or a diary to write unless the task demands that the output be typewritten.

Omit the phrasal verb 'write down' when no object follows — 'write' is enough. Use subjunctive or modal for 'demands that the output be typewritten' in formal English; avoid 'should' after 'demands that.' Also ensure parallelism: 'pen and paper or a diary' is acceptable but consider 'a diary' as 'a notebook' for clarity.

× I learned to type on keyboard when I was 17 years old.

✓ I learned to type on a keyboard when I was 17 years old.

Missing article before 'keyboard' — 'a keyboard' required. Use simple past 'learned' is correct. Suggestion: 'I learned to type on a keyboard when I was 17.'

× For this purpose, I enrolled into a computer institution to learn all the related skills.

✓ For this purpose, I enrolled in a computer institution to learn all the related skills.

Use 'enroll in' (not 'enroll into'). Prepositions with 'enroll' commonly 'enroll in' or 'enrol at' depending on variety of English. Suggestion: 'I enrolled in a computer institute to learn the related skills.'

× I had good company there.

✓ I had good company there.

Sentence is grammatically acceptable but slightly informal; can be left as is. If aiming for clarity, specify 'I had good classmates there' or 'I was in good company there.' No correction required.

× I picked up the skill very quickly and I enjoyed learning typing over there.

✓ I picked up the skill very quickly and I enjoyed learning to type there.

Use 'learn to type' rather than 'learning typing.' Also 'over there' is informal and unnecessary; 'there' is sufficient. Suggestion: 'I picked up the skill quickly and enjoyed learning to type there.'

× Typing, like any other skill, can be improved by consistently practicing.

✓ Typing, like any other skill, can be improved by consistent practice.

Use the noun 'practice' rather than the gerund 'practicing' after 'improved by.' 'Consistent practice' is the correct collocation. Alternatively, 'by practicing consistently' is acceptable.

× For this purpose, I used to set aside a regular period of time during the day to practice.

✓ For this purpose, I used to set aside a regular period of time during the day to practice.

Sentence is acceptable if referring to past habitual action. No change needed. If describing current routine, use present simple: 'I set aside a regular period each day to practice.'

× That consistency has aided in enhancing my typing abilities and helped me a lot.

✓ That consistency has aided in enhancing my typing abilities and has helped me a lot.

Maintain parallel tense: use 'has' with both verbs ('has aided' and 'has helped') or change both to simple past. Mixing present perfect and past simple is inconsistent. Suggestion: 'That consistency has improved my typing and helped me a lot.'
