× I'm a computer student. I'm a computer science student in college and I always, you know, I always use computer in their life.
✓ I'm a computer science student in college and I always use computers in my life.
The pronoun 'their' is incorrect because it does not refer to the speaker; use the possessive 'my'. Also 'computer' should be plural 'computers' or remain singular with an article; 'use computers' is natural. Suggestion: match the possessive pronoun to the subject and use plural for general reference to devices.
× the typing or handwriting. And I think both, both of them have their advantages.
✓ typing and handwriting both have their advantages.
Using 'both, both of them' is redundant and wordy. Also 'the typing or handwriting' incorrectly uses articles; general activities don't need 'the'. Suggestion: say 'typing and handwriting both have their advantages.'
× typing is convenient and fast and handwriting, it can enjoy your literature.
✓ typing is convenient and fast, and handwriting can reflect your personality or literary style.
'it can enjoy your literature' is ungrammatical: 'enjoy' is transitive and 'your literature' is unclear. Better verb phrases are 'reflect your personality' or 'show your literary style'. Also remove redundant pronoun 'it'. Suggestion: use verbs that correctly link handwriting to expression.
× I always, you know, I always use computer in their life.
✓ I always use a computer in my daily life.
Apart from pronoun error already noted, tense and habitual action require present simple: 'I always use a computer' is correct. Also 'daily life' is more natural than 'their life'. Suggestion: use present simple for habitual actions and correct possessive.
× Uh, as a matter of fact, I start to type, uh, very late.
✓ Uh, as a matter of fact, I started to type very late.
The speaker is describing a past action, so the past tense 'started' (past participle/regular past) is required rather than present 'start'. Suggestion: use past tense for events that began in the past.
× Uh, when I enter college, I, I really started to type because in my major, if you type slow and you will complete the task slower than anyone.
✓ When I entered college, I really started to type because in my major, if you type slowly you will complete tasks more slowly than others.
'enter' should be past 'entered' to match past time. 'type slow' uses adjective 'slow' incorrectly; use adverb 'slowly'. 'complete the task slower than anyone' is awkward; use comparative 'more slowly than others' and plural 'tasks' for generality. Suggestion: keep past timeline consistent and use appropriate adverb and comparative forms.
× So I need to input any commands or any phrases into the into the computer.
✓ So I need to input commands or phrases into the computer.
Redundant 'the into the' is incorrect. Use 'into the computer' once. Also 'any' is unnecessary; concise phrasing is better. Suggestion: remove extra words and keep single correct preposition.
× Uh, actually I improve my typing skill just, you know, use computer to communicate with anyone on the apps, you know, like WeChat or QQ or, uh, Chinese chatting apps and you need to type to communicate to them.
✓ Actually I improve my typing skills just by using a computer to communicate with people on apps like WeChat, QQ, or other Chinese chat apps, and you need to type to communicate with them.
After expressions like 'improve my typing skills just by', use the -ing form 'using'. 'skill' should be plural 'skills'. Use 'people' rather than 'anyone' for naturalness. Preposition 'communicate to them' is incorrect; use 'communicate with them'. Suggestion: use 'by' + verb-ing to show method, pluralize countable nouns, and use correct prepositions for 'communicate'.
× So you will train your typing skills.
✓ So you will improve your typing skills.
'train your typing skills' is understandable but 'improve' is more natural in context. 'Skills' plural is correct. Suggestion: choose the most natural verb collocation ('improve typing skills').
