Typing— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Improve accuracy, clarity and coherence. Correct vocabulary errors (e.g., 'Taiping' → 'typing'; 'type notes a cleaner' → 'typed notes are cleaner'), use a clear topic sentence and one or two supporting details with linking words. Keep it natural and within 2–4 sentences.

예시: I prefer typing because it is much faster and makes editing easier. In addition, my handwriting is messy, so typed notes are cleaner and simpler to share with others.

제안: Reduce minor inaccuracies and unnecessary details, and use clear linking words. Avoid confusing phrases ('30 keys' and 'extended layout' contradict). Be concise: give one direct statement about daily use, then one brief reason or example.

예시: I type on a laptop every day, but I usually connect an external mechanical keyboard for comfort. The tactile keys and stable layout make long typing sessions less tiring.

제안: Correct factual phrasing and avoid confusing word choices. Use simple, accurate details and linking words. Replace incorrect words ('commute' → 'computer'; 'tuition centre' is fine but clarify; 'tough diving' → remove) and provide one clear supporting detail about what you learned.

예시: I learned to type in third grade, which was over twenty years ago. I attended a basic computer course at a local tuition centre where the teacher showed us proper finger placement and common keyboard shortcuts.

제안: Fix word choice errors and be more specific about methods. Replace 'prices' with 'practice' and give concrete examples of exercises or routines. Use linking words to connect ideas and stay within 2–3 sentences.

예시: I improve my typing through regular practice: I type every day and use online exercises and timed tests to increase both speed and accuracy. I also focus on accuracy first, then gradually raise my target words-per-minute.

× I prefer Taiping because it's much faster and easier to edit documents on a computer.

✓ I prefer typing because it's much faster and easier to edit documents on a computer.

The sentence uses 'Taiping' (a proper noun) instead of the gerund 'typing'. This is a word choice/pronoun-related error: the speaker meant the activity of typing. Use 'typing' to refer to the action. Suggestion: replace incorrect word with the correct gerund 'typing'.

× Also, my handwriting is quite messy, so type notes a cleaner, clearer and simpler to share with other people.

✓ Also, my handwriting is quite messy, so typed notes are cleaner, clearer and simpler to share with other people.

The original sentence has multiple issues: missing verb form and incorrect adjective order. 'type notes' lacks linking verb and should be plural 'typed notes' with 'are'. Use 'typed notes' (adjective + noun) and include the verb 'are' to form a grammatical clause. Suggestion: add the verb 'are' and use 'typed' as the adjective describing notes.

× I type on a laptop every day, but I also use an external mechanical keyboard because I prefer the 30 keys and the satisfying clicking sound.

✓ I type on a laptop every day, but I also use an external mechanical keyboard because I prefer the extra keys and the satisfying clicking sound.

The phrase 'the 30 keys' is awkward and possibly incorrect. While not strictly a 3rd person singular verb error, it involves incorrect noun reference and article use. Replacing with 'the extra keys' clarifies meaning. Suggestion: use precise noun phrases (e.g., 'extra keys' or 'a 30-key layout') and ensure article usage matches intended meaning.

× I bought an extended layout so it feels more like a desktop keyboard and is more comfortable for long typing sessions.

✓ I bought an extended layout, so it feels more like a desktop keyboard and is more comfortable for long typing sessions.

The sentence is grammatically correct except for a missing comma before the conjunction 'so' joining two independent clauses. Add the comma for correct punctuation. Suggestion: place a comma before coordinating conjunctions linking two independent clauses.

× I learnt to type when I was in the third grade, so that was more than 20 years ago.

✓ I learned to type when I was in the third grade, so that was more than 20 years ago.

Both 'learnt' and 'learned' are acceptable; however, in many varieties of English 'learned' is more common in speech contexts. No major tense error; this is a style choice. Suggestion: use consistent past tense form 'learned' for clarity.

× I attended a basic commute course at a private tuition centre in my neighborhood because commuter classes were not very common at the time and the teacher taught us tough diving and keep keyboard shortcuts.

✓ I attended a basic computer course at a private tuition centre in my neighbourhood because computer classes were not very common at the time and the teacher taught us touch typing and keyboard shortcuts.

Multiple word-choice errors: 'commute' should be 'computer'; 'commuter classes' should be 'computer classes'; 'tough diving' is likely 'touch typing'; 'keep keyboard shortcuts' should be 'keyboard shortcuts'. These are vocabulary and collocation mistakes. Suggestion: replace incorrect words with intended technical terms: 'computer course', 'computer classes', 'touch typing', and 'keyboard shortcuts'. Also note British/US spelling differences ('neighbourhood' vs 'neighborhood').

× I don't remember exactly how I improve, but I think regular prices help a lot.

✓ I don't remember exactly how I improved, but I think regular practice helps a lot.

Errors: 'how I improve' is present-tense phrasing but context asks about past method — use past 'improved'. 'regular prices' is incorrect collocation; should be 'regular practice'. Also 'help' should agree with singular noun 'practice' so 'helps'. Suggestion: use past tense for past actions and correct noun collocation 'practice' and subject-verb agreement.

× I type every day and use online exercises and tests which gradually increase my speed and accuracy.

✓ I type every day and use online exercises and tests that gradually increase my speed and accuracy.

The original sentence is largely correct. Replacing 'which' with 'that' is a stylistic choice for defining relative clauses in restrictive contexts. The grammar problem type indicated is the use of verb + -ing form; here no -ing error exists. Keep structure and ensure verb tenses match (present simple). Suggestion: use 'that' for essential clauses in spoken/written English for clarity.
