Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Avoid repetition and fix grammar (e.g. 'my handwriting', 'it becomes messy').

Ejemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting because my handwriting is poor and I often make spelling mistakes. Moreover, when I type I can easily correct errors with spell-check, so my work looks neater and takes less time to fix.

Sugerencia: Begin with a direct topic sentence, then add a specific example and a linking word. Correct small errors: say 'every day' (two words) and use plural where needed ('forms').

Ejemplo: I use a laptop keyboard every day for most tasks. For example, I often type to search for information online and to fill out online forms, which is convenient when I'm on the move.

Sugerencia: Give a clear, specific time and explain briefly how you learned. Avoid hesitation and vague ranges; say one approximate age and clarify the activity that helped you learn. Use linking words for coherence.

Ejemplo: I learned to type at a young age, around seven years old, when I used my grandfather's desktop to play simple programs and type short documents. Practicing there helped me become comfortable with the keyboard early on.

Sugerencia: Answer directly: state a clear method for improvement, give specific steps, and use correct vocabulary (e.g. 'typing', 'practice', 'patience'). Keep it concise and use linking words to list actions.

Ejemplo: To improve my typing, I practice regularly using online typing programs and focus on accuracy rather than speed. Also, I proofread my work afterwards and use spelling exercises to reduce mistakes when autocorrect is not available.

× I think that I prefer typing over handwriting as I don't have that good of a writing and I'm quite bad at spelling.

✓ I think that I prefer typing to handwriting because I don't have very good handwriting and I'm quite bad at spelling.

The phrase 'that good of a writing' is ungrammatical; use 'very good handwriting' (noun) and 'prefer X to Y' is the correct collocation. Replace informal 'as' with 'because' for clarity. Suggestion: say 'prefer typing to handwriting' and 'I don't have very good handwriting'.

× So if I get spellings wrong and handwriting then I have to cut it and it becomes so mess or whether whereas I'm typing I can just simply correct it.

✓ So if my handwriting is messy or I get spellings wrong, I have to cross things out and it becomes very messy, whereas when I'm typing I can simply correct them.

Original sentence has confusion and mixed clauses. 'Get spellings wrong and handwriting' is unclear; use 'my handwriting is messy' and 'get spellings wrong'. 'Cut it' is not the usual collocation for editing handwriting; use 'cross things out'. 'So mess or whether' is ungrammatical. Also add 'when' before 'I'm typing' and make pronouns consistent. Suggestion: break into shorter clauses and use consistent subjects and verbs.

× Not on a desktop, but I actually type on a laptop keyboard everyday for day-to-day tasks like searching something up or filling out the form.

✓ Not on a desktop, but I actually type on a laptop keyboard every day for day-to-day tasks like searching for something or filling out forms.

Every day should be two words when meaning 'each day' (adverbial phrase). 'Searching something up' is informal; 'searching for something' is more natural. 'Filling out the form' suggests a specific form; use 'filling out forms' for general tasks. Suggestion: use 'every day', 'searching for something', and pluralize 'forms' when speaking generally.

× I actually learned it at the quite a young age.

✓ I actually learned it at quite a young age.

The extra article 'the' before 'quite a young age' is incorrect. The phrase should be 'at quite a young age'. Suggestion: remove 'the' in this expression.

× I think that I actually started typing when I was about four or seven.

✓ I think that I actually started typing when I was about four or seven years old.

Numbers used for ages should include 'years old' for clarity. Also 'about four or seven' is ambiguous but may reflect uncertainty; adding 'years old' clarifies the age reference. Suggestion: say 'about four or seven years old' or 'between four and seven years old' if indicating a range.

× I used to sort of change or use paint on my grandfather's desktop.

✓ I used to mess around with Paint on my grandfather's desktop computer.

'Change or use paint' is awkward. 'Paint' (the program) should be capitalized; 'desktop' needs 'computer' for clarity. 'Sort of' and 'mess around with' better convey informal experimentation. Suggestion: say 'mess around with Paint' or 'use Microsoft Paint' and include 'desktop computer'.

× So I learned it quite a while back.

✓ So I learned it quite a while ago.

The phrase 'a while back' is acceptable in speech, but 'a while ago' is more standard after 'learned it'. Either is informal; 'ago' fits better with 'learned'. Suggestion: use 'a while ago' in this context.

× I think in in order to improve my patent I need to focus on my spellings because if you are tightening in reverse you can sometimes make a lot of silly sparing mistakes if it is important to go through the thing that you have just typed if you don't have auto correct.

✓ I think in order to improve my typing I need to focus on my spelling, because if you are typing quickly you can sometimes make a lot of silly spelling mistakes, so it is important to review what you have just typed if you don't have autocorrect.

Many words are wrong or misspelled: 'in in' duplicated; 'patent' should be 'typing'; 'spellings' -> singular 'spelling' or 'spelling mistakes'; 'tightening in reverse' is nonsensical, likely 'typing quickly'; 'sparing' should be 'spelling'; 'go through the thing that you have just typed' is awkward — use 'review what you have just typed'; 'auto correct' usually 'autocorrect'. Prepositions: 'focus on my spelling' is correct. Suggestion: proofread for typographical errors, use 'typing', 'spelling mistakes', 'typing quickly', and 'review what you have just typed'.
