Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and avoid hesitation. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting reasons using linking words. Reduce filler words (uh, so) and finish the answer with a brief concluding phrase.

Ejemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting. As a software engineer who codes every day, I’ve developed fast touch-typing and rarely need to look at the keys. Because of this practice, I find typing is quicker and more efficient for most tasks.

Sugerencia: Give a direct answer first and then add one clear specific detail. Avoid repeating the same phrase and correct inaccurate wording (e.g., 'code essays' is odd). Keep to two to three sentences.

Ejemplo: I use a laptop keyboard every day. I do most of my coding and writing on the laptop because it’s portable and I can work from different locations.

Sugerencia: Give a clear time reference and one or two specific activities that helped you learn. Avoid repetition and hesitations; use linking words to show sequence (e.g., 'first', 'later').

Ejemplo: I learned to type when I was a child. I practiced on a desktop computer by writing simple HTML and CSS and searching online, which helped me become comfortable with the keyboard.

Sugerencia: Provide a concise, structured answer: state the method clearly, explain why it helps, and give a brief example or tip. Remove fillers and redundant phrases. Use linking words like 'first' and 'for example'.

Ejemplo: To improve typing, focus on looking at the screen rather than the keys. This encourages touch-typing and increases speed and accuracy; for example, practicing daily with short typing drills for 10–15 minutes will build muscle memory.

× I usually code essays.

✓ I usually write essays.

The verb 'code' is incorrect in meaning here rather than a strict third-person singular error. However, the student used 'code' with 'essays', which is not appropriate collocation; 'write' is the correct verb. Replace 'code' with 'write' to match the intended action and maintain correct subject-verb usage.

× I used to have a desktop with a big keyboard.

✓ I used to have a desktop with a big keyboard.

This sentence is grammatically correct with singular nouns. No change needed; included to show no singular/plural error.

× I used to, I used to, you know, uh, code, some HTML code, CSSS code and it helped me to like, you know, type and whenever I want to search something, I used to go to the Google and type there.

✓ I used to write some HTML and CSS, and it helped me learn to type, and whenever I wanted to search for something, I would go to Google and type there.

Mixed tenses and awkward phrasing: 'whenever I want' should be in the past tense to match 'used to' and 'helped'. 'CSSS' is a typo; use 'CSS'. 'Code some HTML code' is redundant; say 'write some HTML'. 'Go to the Google' is incorrect article use; say 'Google'. Use 'would' or 'wanted' to keep past habitual action consistent.

× I actually prefer typing because as a software engineer, I have been involved in typing, so because I have to code every day.

✓ I actually prefer typing because, as a software engineer, I am involved in a lot of typing since I have to code every day.

Tense and aspect awkwardness: 'have been involved in typing' is wordy and odd. Use present simple 'am involved in a lot of typing' to describe a current regular situation and 'since I have to code every day' to explain the reason. This improves clarity and naturalness.

× So I think I'm pretty good at typing because of, uh, all the experience that I have with coding, so I can type without, uh, looking at the keys.

✓ So I think I'm pretty good at typing because of all the experience I have with coding, and I can type without looking at the keys.

Redundant 'so' and filler 'uh' interrupt sentence flow. Remove extra words and join clauses with 'and' for clear structure. 'That I have' can be shortened to 'I have' for smoother phrasing.

× So I usually type, uh, essays. I usually code essays.

✓ So I usually type essays. I usually code software.

Original contains a content error rather than a strict agreement issue: 'type essays' is fine; 'code essays' is semantically wrong. To preserve subject-verb agreement, provide a correct collocation: 'code software' or 'write code'. This aligns verb with direct object.

× I usually use my laptop keyboard for any other, any, any task that I want to involve.

✓ I usually use my laptop keyboard for any task I want to do.

'Want to involve' is incorrect; 'involve' requires an object and is not the right verb. Use 'want to do' or 'want to perform'. Also remove repetitive 'any other, any, any'. This corrects preposition and verb choice and simplifies the phrase.

× I used to go to the Google and type there.

✓ I used to go to Google and type there.

The definite article 'the' should not be used before the proper noun 'Google'. Remove 'the' to correct article usage.

× I think one of the main thing that I understand if you want to improve your typing, So what you can do is like, you know, you have to look at the words you type, not the keys that you, uh, you are going to press because it helps you to speed up your typing, uh, skills.

✓ I think one of the main things to understand if you want to improve your typing is that you should look at the words you type, not the keys you are going to press, because that helps you increase your typing speed and accuracy.

Multiple issues: 'one of the main thing' should be 'one of the main things' (singular/plural). Use of 'So' mid-sentence is unnecessary. 'Helps you to speed up your typing skills' is awkward; use 'helps you increase your typing speed and accuracy'. Also change 'you have to look at' to 'you should look at' for advice and smoother verb forms. Ensures correct use of -ing forms and noun forms.

× And also it, it, it helps you to accurately type, you know.

✓ It also helps you type more accurately.

Adverb placement and redundancy: 'helps you to accurately type' contains a split infinitive and filler 'you know'. Better phrasing is 'helps you type more accurately' where the adverb 'more accurately' correctly modifies 'type'. Remove repeated 'it' and fillers for clarity.
