Typing— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one specific supporting detail linked with a connector. Avoid vague phrases and grammar errors (e.g., "Study shows" → "Studies show", "for instances" → "for instance"). Keep to 2–3 sentences and use varied vocabulary (retain → remember, take lecture notes).

예시: I prefer handwriting to typing because studies show it helps you remember information better. For instance, at university I took handwritten lecture notes, which made it easier for me to review and recall key points later.

제안: Give a direct topic sentence and one specific example; correct grammar and word choice ("everyday" → "every day", "This methods" → "These methods" or "This helps"). Avoid redundancy like "efficiently and effectively finish" — choose one. Limit to 2–3 sentences.

예시: I don't type on a desktop or laptop every day; when I do, it's mainly for academic work. For example, I use my laptop to write essays and prepare slides, which helps me finish tasks more quickly.

제안: Provide a concise time reference and correct pronoun use ("your" → "her"/"my") and grammar ("each fingers" → "each finger"; "maneuver" is okay but "use" or "position" simpler). Use one linking phrase to show result. Keep it within 3 sentences.

예시: I learned to type in grade school when my mother taught me proper hand placement on the keyboard. As a result, practicing over the years improved my typing speed and accuracy.

제안: Answer directly with a topic sentence and a specific method, then give a brief example of how it helps. Use correct noun forms ("accuracy" not "typings"), and avoid addressing the examiner as "you" unless giving a suggestion. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

예시: I improve my typing by practising on a website called Typing Dust, which offers one- or two-minute tests. These timed exercises show my speed and accuracy, so I can focus on reducing errors and increasing words per minute.

× Study shows that writing helps you retain information more rather than typing it.

✓ Studies show that writing helps you retain information better than typing.

Use plural 'Studies' for general research statements and 'better than' is the correct comparative structure; 'more rather than' is unidiomatic here. Also replace 'more' with 'better' when comparing quality of retention.

× For instances, while I was in the university, I usually write my lectures and then that helps me keep the information.

✓ For instance, while I was at university, I usually wrote my lecture notes and that helped me retain the information.

Use singular 'instance' in the phrase 'for instance'. Use preposition 'at university' (common English usage) and past tense 'wrote' to match 'while I was' in the past. 'Write my lectures' is awkward; 'wrote my lecture notes' is clearer. Use 'retain' instead of 'keep' for information.

× I don't usually type on a desktop or laptop keyboard everyday, but when I do, it's for academic purposes.

✓ I don't usually type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day, but when I do, it's for academic purposes.

Two issues: 'every day' is two words (adverbial phrase) rather than 'everyday' (adjective). 'Usually' placement is acceptable; corrected only the 'every day' form.

× This methods help me work efficiently and effectively finish my task on time.

✓ These methods help me work efficiently and finish my tasks on time.

Use plural demonstrative 'These' to match 'methods'. 'Help' is correct with plural subject. Remove redundant 'and effectively' or keep one adverb; here 'efficiently' suffices. Use plural 'tasks' to match general meaning.

× When I was in grade school, my mom taught me how to maneuver a keyboard.

✓ When I was in grade school, my mom taught me how to use a keyboard.

'Maneuver a keyboard' is unusual; 'use a keyboard' is natural. Past tense 'taught' is correct and kept.

× She taught me how to properly place your hands and how each fingers will move from letters to letters.

✓ She taught me how to properly place my hands and how each finger moves from key to key.

Pronouns must be consistent: speaking about yourself requires 'my' not 'your'. 'Each fingers' is wrong: use singular 'each finger'. For general truth, use present simple 'moves' rather than 'will move'. 'From letters to letters' is unidiomatic; use 'from key to key'.

× With that, over the years it helped me improve my typing speed and accuracy.

✓ Over the years, that has helped me improve my typing speed and accuracy.

Use present perfect 'has helped' to link past practice with present result. 'With that' is unnecessary; reordering improves clarity.

× Over the years I frequently use a website called Typing Dust.

✓ Over the years I have frequently used a website called Typing Dust.

Use present perfect 'have used' or 'have frequently used' to indicate actions that started in the past and continue or have relevance now. 'Over the years' calls for present perfect.

× You can take a full minute or two-minute test and then it will show you how fast you type or how accurate your typings are.

✓ You can take a one- or two-minute test and it will show you how fast you type and how accurate your typing is.

Use compound adjective 'one- or two-minute' before 'test'. 'How accurate your typings are' is incorrect: use uncountable 'typing' with singular verb 'is'. Replace 'or' with 'and' to present both speed and accuracy as results.
