Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Make the answer more concise and natural: state your preference clearly, give one or two specific reasons with brief examples, and avoid repetition and fillers (uh, well). Use linking words to connect points (because, for example, and).

Ejemplo: I prefer handwriting because it feels more personal and expressive. For example, my handwriting changes when I’m excited or stressed, so friends can often tell my mood from a note. In contrast, typed text looks uniform and less emotional.

Sugerencia: Be direct and clear: start with a topic sentence about your main habit, then add a specific detail or frequency. Avoid vague phrases and small grammar errors (e.g., “searching up for information in the Internet” should be “searching for information on the internet”).

Ejemplo: I don’t use a desktop or laptop daily; I usually type on my phone. For instance, I text friends and often search for information online using my phone several times a day.

Sugerencia: Keep the answer concise and correct minor grammar and tone issues. State the time clearly and add one short supporting detail or result. Avoid colloquial fillers like “like it or not.”

Ejemplo: I learned to type when I was in fifth grade because keyboard skills were a compulsory subject at my school. As a result, I became comfortable with basic typing early on.

Sugerencia: Give a clearer structure: start with a direct statement about your improvement methods, then give specific activities and frequency. Remove hedging and repetition and use linking words (because, so, therefore).

Ejemplo: I’ve improved my typing mainly by doing school tasks that require typing, such as writing proposals and budgeting documents. Because I type these assignments regularly, my speed and accuracy have gradually increased, although I still practice to get faster.

× I definitely prefer handwriting since it shows our emotions when we were writing and when we're typing we can't actually show that since the fonts are always in the same size.

✓ I definitely prefer handwriting since it shows our emotions when we write, and when we type we can't really show that because the fonts are always the same size.

Pronoun and tense consistency: 'when we were writing' mixes past tense with a general preference; use present simple 'when we write' to express habitual/general truth. 'When we're typing' is fine but 'we can't actually show that' is wordy; 'we can't really show that' is more natural. Also use 'the same size' rather than 'in the same size.' Suggestion: keep tenses consistent for general statements and simplify phrasing. Grammar problem type ID:12

× Well, if we do it in handwritten, uh, the font and the size will always be different depending on our emotions.

✓ Well, if we write by hand, the font and size will always be different depending on our emotions.

Incorrect phrase 'do it in handwritten' and pronoun/article use: use 'write by hand' or 'handwrite' instead. 'The font and the size' is acceptable but 'font and size' is more natural. Keep verbs and expressions idiomatic. Suggestion: use 'write by hand' for clarity. Grammar problem type ID:12

× Well, I don't actually type every day, especially on laptop or a computer, but I usually type on my phone since I'm texting a friend or I'm searching up for information in the Internet.

✓ Well, I don't actually type every day on a laptop or a computer, but I usually type on my phone when I'm texting a friend or searching for information on the internet.

Preposition and tense issues: 'especially on laptop or a computer' should be 'on a laptop or a computer.' 'Searching up for' is incorrect; use 'searching for.' 'In the Internet' should be 'on the internet' or 'online.' Use present continuous 'when I'm texting' and parallel structure 'or searching for' to match. Suggestion: keep parallel verb forms and correct prepositions. Grammar problem type ID:6

× I learned how to type on a keyboard back when I was in fifth grade.

✓ I learned to type on a keyboard when I was in fifth grade.

Verb form and redundancy: 'learned how to type' is acceptable, but 'learned to type' is more concise. 'Back when' is informal; 'when I was in fifth grade' is sufficient. Ensure tense is simple past as this refers to a completed action. Suggestion: use concise past-tense phrasing for past events. Grammar problem type ID:5

× It was actually a compulsory subject in my school, so like it or not, I have to learn them.

✓ It was actually a compulsory subject at my school, so like it or not, I had to learn it.

Pronoun and tense agreement: 'subject' is singular, so use 'it' not 'them.' The sentence begins in past ('It was') so the result should also be past: 'I had to learn it.' Also use 'at my school' rather than 'in my school.' Suggestion: match number (singular/plural) and maintain consistent tense. Grammar problem type ID:12

× Well, I wouldn't say that my typing has improved though, just a bit because I was required to write proposal or even some budgeting event for my school.

✓ Well, I wouldn't say that my typing has improved much; only a little because I was required to write proposals and even do some budgeting for school events.

Modal/degree and noun number: 'just a bit' is fine but 'much' or 'only a little' is more natural with 'has improved.' 'Write proposal' needs plural 'proposals' or 'a proposal.' 'Some budgeting event' is ungrammatical; use 'do some budgeting for school events.' Suggestion: adjust quantifier/adverb placement and use correct plural nouns. Grammar problem type ID:4

× So I'm getting used to them right now and luckily I'm getting better, though not a lot.

✓ So I'm getting used to it right now, and luckily I'm getting better, though not by much.

Pronoun agreement and adverb phrase: 'them' refers back to 'typing' or 'tasks' but 'typing' is uncountable so use 'it.' 'Not a lot' is informal; 'not by much' is more natural. Maintain present continuous 'I'm getting.' Suggestion: ensure pronoun refers to correct antecedent and use natural adverbial expressions. Grammar problem type ID:6
