Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Clarify and organize your response with a clear topic sentence, reduce filler words (uh), correct verb forms (I will type), and add one specific reason or brief example to support each preference. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

例: I prefer typing for official documents because it looks more professional and is easier to edit. For personal notes or cards, I usually write by hand because it feels more personal and expressive. If I'm in a hurry, I tend to type because it's faster.

提案: Begin with a direct topic sentence (Yes, I use a laptop every day), remove hesitations, correct grammar (I use my laptop to make lesson plans), and give one concise supporting detail about when or why you sometimes write by hand. Keep to 2–3 sentences.

例: Yes, I use a laptop keyboard every day because I prepare lesson plans and grade assignments online. However, when planning ideas quickly or brainstorming, I sometimes prefer to write by hand because it helps me think more freely.

提案: Answer directly with a clear past-time phrase and correct tense (I started typing when I was about 8 or 9). Remove unnecessary phrases like “I really don’t remember” or combine them briefly, then give a specific context (e.g., using social media or school) to support the answer.

例: I don't remember the exact moment, but I started typing when I was about eight or nine years old, mainly because I began using social media and school computers at that time.

提案: State clearly how you improve (by daily practice) and use correct grammar (I haven't taken formal lessons; I practice every day). Provide one specific practice habit (e.g., typing exercises, using typing software, or timed practice) to make the answer more informative and natural.

例: I haven't had formal lessons; I improve mainly through daily practice by typing lesson plans and emails. Lately I've also used online typing exercises for 10–15 minutes a day to increase my speed and accuracy.

× It depends on situation.

✓ It depends on the situation.

The noun 'situation' requires the definite article 'the' because the speaker refers to a specific context (the situation under discussion). Use 'the' before a specific singular noun.

× If uh, it is official document, uh, I will typing,

✓ If it is an official document, I will type it,

Verb form and article errors: 'will typing' is incorrect because after 'will' the base verb 'type' is required (third person singular is not relevant with 'will'). Also 'official document' needs the indefinite article 'an' before a singular countable noun starting with a vowel sound. Add object 'it' to make the sentence complete.

× uh, it is something not official.

✓ uh, it is something not official.

This sentence is acceptable but would be more natural as 'it is not official' or 'it is something unofficial.' No strict article error when using 'something not official,' though rephrasing improves clarity.

× It is something for in something private, personal, I will uh, write by hand,

✓ If it is something private or personal, I will write it by hand,

Word order and redundancy: 'for in something private' is ungrammatical. Use the condition 'If it is something private or personal' and include the object 'it.' Combine adjectives with 'or' and place the verb phrase 'write it by hand' after the condition.

× uh, if I in a hurry, I'll.

✓ uh, if I'm in a hurry, I'll write by hand.

Missing auxiliary verb and incomplete clause: 'if I in a hurry' needs the contraction 'I'm' (am) to form the present tense. The clause 'I'll' is incomplete; add the verb phrase 'write by hand' to complete the meaning.

× Yes, of course, because I am a teacher and I have to uh, use laptop keyboard every day for uh, make some plan for a lesson.

✓ Yes, of course, because I am a teacher and I have to use a laptop keyboard every day to make lesson plans.

Article and infinitive issues: 'use laptop keyboard' needs the article 'a' before 'laptop keyboard.' 'for make some plan for a lesson' is incorrect; use the infinitive 'to make' and pluralize 'lesson plans' for natural English.

× And it is, it is part of my job.

✓ And it is part of my job.

Repetition: 'it is, it is' is redundant. Use a single 'it is' for correct and natural phrasing.

× And yes, sometimes for me easier writes everything by hand,

✓ And yes, sometimes it is easier for me to write everything by hand,

Word order and verb form: 'for me easier writes' is incorrect. Use the dummy subject 'it' with the adjective 'easier,' follow with 'for me,' then the infinitive 'to write' as the verb form.

× but I have to use because it is added.

✓ but I have to use it because it is required.

Missing object and vague adjective: 'use because it is added' lacks an object after 'use' and 'added' is unclear. Insert 'it' as the object and replace 'added' with 'required' to convey the likely meaning.

× I really don't remember this because when I start type on a keyboard I was a child.

✓ I really don't remember because when I started typing on a keyboard I was a child,

Tense and verb form errors: Use past tense 'started' for an action in the past and the gerund 'typing' after 'start.' Also omit 'this' for natural phrasing and place commas appropriately.

× I have about 8 or 9 years old and I started using social media.

✓ I was about 8 or 9 years old when I started using social media.

Age expression: Use 'was' not 'have' when stating past age ('I was about 8 years old'). Also connect the age to the time of starting with 'when' for a correct time clause.

× Uh, I didn't improve.

✓ Uh, I didn't improve it deliberately,

Clarity and object: 'I didn't improve' is grammatically acceptable but ambiguous. Adding 'it' or 'my skill' and an adverb such as 'deliberately' clarifies the intended meaning. The original may intend 'I didn't try to improve'.

× I just do, uh, it every day.

✓ I just do it every day,

Word order: Place the object 'it' immediately after the verb 'do.' The simple present 'do' is fine to indicate a habitual action.

× Uh, how we know practice makes perfect Because of this, I do it every day and my type skill improve by themselves.

✓ As we know, practice makes perfect. Because of this, I do it every day and my typing skills improve by themselves.

Sentence connectors and noun forms: Use 'As we know' for the introductory clause. 'type skill' should be 'typing skills' (plural) and 'improve' needs the third-person singular form 'improve' -> 'improve' is correct only with plural subject 'skills'; keep plural to match 'improve.' 'by themselves' is acceptable but could be omitted for naturalness.
