Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Make the response more natural and concise: start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (avoid double comparatives like 'rather prefer'), and give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

例: I prefer handwriting to typing because I write quickly and my handwriting is neat. Moreover, I find typing slow since I don’t practice it much. For example, when I take notes in class I can finish faster and more accurately by hand.

提案: Remove hesitations and repetition, use a clear topic sentence, then provide a specific detail or example with linking words. Correct small errors (e.g., 'hands on on' -> 'using'). Limit to 2–3 sentences.

例: I type on a laptop keyboard every day. Since I started using it more often last year, my typing speed and accuracy have improved steadily; for instance, I can now finish emails much faster than before.

提案: This answer is mostly clear but can be more natural and concise. Use a simple past tense and one brief supporting detail or reason with a linking word. Avoid repeating 'when'.

例: I learned to type in second grade when we had computer classes at school. Because we practiced regularly, I became comfortable using the keyboard early on.

提案: Give a clearer structure: state the method you use, explain how it helps with a specific detail, and use linking words. Remove filler words like 'so' and 'uh'.

例: I improve my typing by using an online typing practice site that measures words per minute and accuracy. By following its lessons and tracking my WPM scores, I can focus on weak areas and gradually increase my speed.

× I would rather prefer handwriting over than typing because my handwriting is really well and in typing for me it really takes time because I'm not hands on on it.

✓ I would rather write by hand than type because my handwriting is really good, and typing takes me a long time because I'm not very experienced with it.

Use of 'rather' with 'prefer' is redundant; correct structure is 'would rather' + base verb or 'prefer X to Y'. 'over than' is incorrect; use 'than' after 'rather'. 'really well' is an adverb but a noun 'handwriting' needs an adjective 'good'. 'in typing for me it really takes time' is awkward; revise to 'typing takes me a long time'. 'not hands on on it' uses incorrect preposition and repetition; use 'not very experienced with it'. Suggestions: remove redundancy, use 'write by hand' or 'prefer handwriting to typing', replace adverb with adjective for 'handwriting', and simplify prepositional phrases.

× But when it comes to writing, yes I have a good speed and accuracy when it comes to handwriting.

✓ When it comes to handwriting, I have good speed and accuracy.

The original repeats 'when it comes to' and uses 'writing' and 'handwriting' redundantly. Tense is present and correct but sentence is wordy. Simplify to a single, clear present-tense statement. Suggestion: remove repetition and redundant words.

× Nowadays I'm, uh, hands on on laptop, so I'm currently using my laptop for typing, uh, my speed and accuracy has uh, increased day by day from from last year.

✓ Nowadays I'm using a laptop, so I type on my laptop. My speed and accuracy have increased day by day since last year.

'hands on on laptop' is an incorrect pronoun/phrase; use 'using a laptop'. 'my speed and accuracy has' shows subject-verb agreement issue (compound subject requires 'have') — categorized here as pronoun/phrase misuse per instruction list; also 'from from' is repetition and 'since last year' fits better than 'from last year'. Suggestions: fix expression to 'using a laptop', correct verb agreement to 'have increased', remove repeated words, and use 'since' for a starting point in time.

× If I observe, uh, it is really well, uh, as compared to last year, so yeah.

✓ If I compare it to last year, it is much better.

'If I observe' is not idiomatic for comparing; use 'If I compare' or 'Compared to last year'. 'It is really well' incorrectly uses an adverb for a noun/quality; use 'better' or 'much better'. Maintain present tense for current comparison. Suggestion: use clear comparative structure 'it is better than last year'.

× I learned typing on keyboard when I was in my second grade when I used to have my computer classes in my school.

✓ I learned to type on a keyboard when I was in second grade and had computer classes at school.

Use 'learned to type' rather than 'learned typing'. Add article 'a' before 'keyboard'. 'my second grade' is unnatural; use 'second grade'. 'used to have' is unnecessary; simple past 'had' is clearer. Use 'at school' rather than 'in my school'. Suggestions: use infinitive after 'learned', include articles appropriately, and simplify time clause.

× So there is a link wherein you can practice your typing.

✓ There is a link where you can practice typing.

'Wherein' is formal and odd in speech; 'where' is natural. 'practice your typing' is acceptable but 'practice typing' is more concise. Suggestion: use 'where' and omit unnecessary possessive.

× So there it shows the rating on how many words you have uh written or typed per minute.

✓ It shows your rating: how many words you have written or typed per minute.

Sentence is wordy and has filler words. 'how many words you have written or typed per minute' is correct but 'on how many' is unnecessary; use colon or rephrase. Also choose either 'written' or 'typed' since they mean similar here. Suggestion: streamline the clause and remove filler.

× So that's how practicing you can improve your speed.

✓ That's how practicing can improve your speed.

Word order is incorrect: 'practicing you can' should be 'practicing can'. Better yet: 'Practicing like that can improve your speed' or 'That's how you can improve your speed by practicing.' Suggestion: place subject before verb or use clearer structure with 'you can' earlier.
