Typing— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more concise, correct grammar, and give a brief reason with a specific example. Avoid redundancy (‘much more better’). Use one topic sentence and one or two supporting details linked logically.

예시: I prefer handwriting because it helps me remember information better. For example, when I take notes by hand during lectures, I process ideas more deeply and can recall them more easily than when I type.

제안: Answer directly with a clear topic sentence and add a specific detail showing how you use each device. Combine sentences with linking words to improve coherence.

예시: I use both a desktop and a laptop every day: I use my desktop at home for heavy tasks like photo editing, while I take my laptop elsewhere for emails and notes on the go.

제안: Remove fillers (umm) and tighten the sentence. Give a clear time reference and one supporting detail about what you learned or practiced.

예시: I learned to type in grade three when our school introduced a computer class, where we practiced basic typing skills and learning proper finger placement.

제안: Clarify tense and structure, remove repetition, and explain a specific practice or tool you use. Use linking words to show sequence or cause and effect.

예시: I improve my typing by transcribing texts as I read them on the screen, which helps with speed and accuracy. Additionally, I use online typing drills for ten minutes daily to build rhythm and reduce errors.

× I prefer handwriting because it helps me understand things much more better and clearer instead of typing where I feel so robotic.

✓ I prefer handwriting because it helps me understand things much better and more clearly, unlike typing, which makes me feel robotic.

This sentence uses double comparatives ('much more better') which is incorrect; use 'much better' or 'more clear'. Also 'clearer' should parallel 'better' so use 'more clearly' as an adverb modifying 'understand'. 'Instead of typing where I feel so robotic' is awkward; replace with 'unlike typing, which makes me feel robotic.' Suggestions: remove redundant modifiers and ensure parallel adverbial forms.

× I use both desktop and laptop keyboard.

✓ I use both desktop and laptop keyboards.

The noun 'keyboard' should be plural because two types (desktop and laptop) are being referred to. When listing multiple items, use plural form. Suggestion: make the noun agree in number with the multiple items.

× I use it for work and for my daily personal use.

✓ I use them for work and for my daily personal use.

Pronoun 'it' refers back to 'desktop and laptop keyboards' which is plural, so the plural pronoun 'them' is required for agreement. Also consider rephrasing to 'for work and personal use' for conciseness.

× It actually started when I was at school, umm, around grade 3, where we do have this computer subject that I need to focus on.

✓ It actually started when I was at school, around grade 3, when we had a computer subject that I needed to focus on.

The event is in the past so verbs should be in past tense: 'do have' and 'need' are present tense and must be changed to 'had' and 'needed'. Also 'where' is better replaced with 'when' to refer to the time. Suggestion: keep tense consistent in past-tense narratives.

× To improve my typing, it actually started when I am reading something in my screen, then I tend to type it at the same time around it actually started to feel I am along with what I'm reading.

✓ To improve my typing, I started by reading something on my screen and typing it at the same time; after a while I began to feel that I was keeping up with what I was reading.

The original mixes present and past tenses ('it actually started', 'I am reading', 'I tend', 'it actually started to feel I am along') producing confusion. Use past tense 'started', 'began', 'was keeping up' to describe the method that was used. Also 'in my screen' should be 'on my screen'. Rephrase for clarity and natural word order.
