How do you improve your typing?

I believe you can improve your typing, umm, typing every day. As much as you practice, you're going to improve and get better. So when I was young, I heard that you can memorize the keyboard buttons and try to put your fingers in the ******.

スコア: 75.0提案: Use respostas mais naturais e concisas; evite repetição de hesitações (uh) e corrija pequenos erros de collocation ("fine to me" → "fine with me", "handwrite" → "write by hand").

スコア: 72.0提案: Seja específico e evite repetições. Dê passos claros e relacionados (por exemplo: practice regularly, use typing software, learn touch-typing).

× To be honest, both are fine to me.
✓ To be honest, both are fine with me.
Uso incorreto da preposição: em inglês, a expressão idiomática é 'fine with me' em vez de 'fine to me'. Substitua 'to' por 'with' para soar natural e correta. Suggestion: memorize common adjective+preposition pairs (e.g., 'good at', 'bad at', 'fine with').
× Like if I'm going to send a short message, I would choose typing uh.
✓ If I'm going to send a short message, I would choose typing.
Erro de estrutura: 'Like' usado coloquialmente no início da frase é desnecessário em linguagem escrita. Além disso, 'I would choose typing' is acceptable; ensure no filler words. Sugestão: retire 'Like' e os 'uh' para clareza. Suggestion: avoid filler words and unnecessary discourse markers in formal responses.
× On the other hand, if I have to write an essay, I prefer uh handwrite because I can organize my ideas.
✓ On the other hand, if I have to write an essay, I prefer to handwrite because I can organize my ideas.
Erro de estrutura verbal: 'prefer handwrite' is incorrect; 'prefer to handwrite' or 'prefer handwriting' is correct. Também remover 'uh'. Sugestão: use 'prefer to + verb' or 'prefer + noun' patterns.
× Not really. Now I'm not working all days but in the past I used.
✓ Not really. Now I don't work every day, but in the past I used to.
Uso incorreto do tempo presente: 'I'm not working all days' is unidiomatic; use 'I don't work every day'. Also 'I used' is incomplete—correct form is 'I used to' for habitual past. Sugestão: use 'used to' for past habits and 'don't' for present routines.
× I used to work in a bank and I had to type in on a keyboard every day so I was very fast because I get used to.
✓ I used to work in a bank and I had to type on a keyboard every day, so I was very fast because I got used to it.
Erros múltiplos: 'type in on a keyboard' contém preposição extra — use 'type on a keyboard'. 'Because I get used to' está no tempo incorreto; passado habitual pede 'got used to it'. Sugestão: combine 'used to' para hábitos passados e use 'get used to' no tempo apropriado ('got used to' para passado).
× Actually, I've never taken some typing lessons.
✓ Actually, I've never taken any typing lessons.
Uso incorreto do quantificador: 'some' não é adequado em frases negativas; use 'any'. Sugestão: em frases negativas com 'never' ou 'not', prefira 'any' em vez de 'some'.
× I believe I've learned these, uh, during the course of my childhood.
✓ I believe I learned them during the course of my childhood.
Estrutura e colocação pronominal: 'I've learned these' is awkward; 'learned them' is more natural. Também choosing past simple ('learned') fits 'during my childhood' better than present perfect. Sugestão: use past simple for completed actions in a finished time period ('during my childhood').
× I believe you can improve your typing, umm, typing every day.
✓ I believe you can improve your typing by practicing every day.
Estrutura e uso modal: repetir 'typing' é redundante; use 'by practicing every day' to express method. 'Can' is fine. Sugestão: use 'practice' as a noun or verb and avoid repetition.
× As much as you practice, you're going to improve and get better.
✓ The more you practice, the more you'll improve.
Comparative structure: 'As much as you practice' is understandable but less natural; use 'The more... the more...' and 'you'll' is more concise than 'you're going to'. Sugestão: learn comparative correlative structures ('the more... the more...').
× So when I was young, I heard that you can memorize the keyboard buttons and try to put your fingers in the ******.
✓ So when I was young, I heard that you can memorize the keyboard keys and try to place your fingers on them.
Uso incorreto de preposição e escolha de palavra: 'keyboard buttons' is less natural than 'keyboard keys'. 'Put your fingers in the' is incorrect preposition; use 'on them' or 'on the keyboard'. Sugestão: use 'place your fingers on the keys' for clarity and naturalness.
