Typing— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be direct and concise: start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then add one specific reason and a brief contrasting example. Avoid irrelevant phrases and grammar errors (e.g. tense, articles) and keep it under five sentences. Use linking words like "however" or "but" correctly.

Exemplo: I prefer typing on a laptop because it is faster and helps me organize notes efficiently. However, when I need to memorize information for an exam, I prefer handwriting because writing by hand helps me remember better.

Sugestão: Answer directly: say which device you use daily and give one specific reason and a brief example. Correct word choices (use "type" not "tap"), and avoid mixed statements. Limit to 2–4 sentences and use a linking word like "also" or "but" for contrast.

Exemplo: I type on a laptop every day because it is portable and convenient for emails and social apps. However, when I make a quick to-do list I sometimes write it by hand because it is faster for short notes.

Sugestão: Provide a clear time reference (e.g., "when I was X years old" or "at school") and describe briefly how you learned with one or two specific details. Use correct grammar and concise phrasing; avoid repetitive or unclear phrases.

Exemplo: I learned to type when I was about ten years old. My father, who is an IT engineer, taught me basic touch-typing, showing me how to position my left and right hands on the keyboard and practice common key combinations.

Sugestão: Give a clear strategy: state one or two specific methods you use to improve typing (practice, online courses, typing software, timed exercises) and give a concrete example. Avoid fillers and unclear words; keep sentences short and logical.

Exemplo: I improve my typing by practicing daily with online typing programs that focus on speed and accuracy. For example, I do 10-minute timed exercises every morning to increase my words-per-minute and reduce errors.

× For instance, when I was at university, I definitely prefer typing on a laptop to get all the information.

✓ For instance, when I was at university, I definitely preferred typing on a laptop to get all the information.

The sentence refers to a past time frame 'when I was at university', so the verb 'prefer' should be in the past tense to match the time reference. Use 'preferred' for consistency. Suggestion: keep past time markers and verbs aligned (e.g., 'was' + 'preferred').

× But if I need to memorize for an assessment for example, I definitely prefer and writing for the memorization.

✓ But if I need to memorize for an assessment, for example, I definitely prefer writing for memorization.

The sentence mixes present and extra words and has an unnecessary 'and' and article. The phrase 'prefer writing' is the correct present-tense preference, and 'for memorization' is a natural noun phrase. Also remove redundant articles. Ensure verb form after 'prefer' is the gerund without 'and'.

× To be honest, every day I tap on a laptop to keep in touch by mail or on my screen with my friends.

✓ To be honest, every day I type on a laptop to keep in touch by email or via the screen with my friends.

The verb 'tap' is odd for typing; use 'type'. Also 'by mail' usually means physical post; for electronic contact use 'by email' or 'via email'. 'On my screen with my friends' is awkward; 'via the screen' or 'on the screen' is clearer. Maintain present simple 'type' for habitual actions.

× But if I need to make a list, for example A to do list, I prefer typing and writing.

✓ But if I need to make a list, for example a to-do list, I prefer typing rather than writing.

The original mixes forms and uses 'and' incorrectly. 'A to do list' should be hyphenated 'a to-do list'. Use 'prefer X rather than Y' to contrast two options. This corrects structure and clarity.

× Well, my dad is an IT engineer, so he's the person who wants me who teach me how to tap on a laptop.

✓ Well, my dad is an IT engineer, so he was the person who wanted to teach me how to type on a laptop.

Pronoun use and verb forms are incorrect. 'He's the person who wants me who teach me' is ungrammatical. Use 'he was the person who wanted to teach me' to indicate past intent, and 'teach me how to type' is the correct infinitive phrase. Also 'tap' should be 'type'.

× For example, give me some advice like divided your laptop in two and you have the hand left side and the right side.

✓ For example, he gave me advice like dividing the keyboard into two zones so you place your left hand on the left side and your right hand on the right side.

The original is ungrammatical and unclear. Use past tense 'gave' to match earlier past context, and the gerund 'dividing' after 'advice'. Clarify 'keyboard' and 'left hand'/'right hand' placement for natural phrasing. Restructure for clarity and correct verb forms.

× So it is.

✓ So it is.

This short sentence is grammatically acceptable in present simple to agree with the previous statement. No change needed. Keep it if intended as confirmation.

× As all the skills you want to improve here to practice it and when I was a child, my TI umm stay with me to uh, improve my fasting and also my accuracy.

✓ Like all skills, you need to practice to improve them, and when I was a child, my teacher stayed with me to improve my speed and accuracy.

The original contains multiple errors: incorrect word order, missing infinitive forms, and misused words ('TI' unclear, 'fasting' incorrect for 'typing speed'). Rephrase: 'Like all skills, you need to practice to improve them' fixes structure and subject-verb agreement. Use 'teacher stayed with me' (past tense) and 'speed and accuracy' for intended meaning.
