× Yeah, I prefer handwriting because that seems to be easy for me.
✓ Yeah, I prefer handwriting because it seems to be easy for me.
The pronoun 'that' is less natural here; 'it' correctly refers to the idea of handwriting. Use 'it' for general reference to an activity or thing previously mentioned.
× Uh, because in the school I always doing copy work and book work that is from writing by pen or pencil.
✓ At school I always did copywork and book work that are written with a pen or pencil.
Multiple errors: 'in the school' should be 'at school'; present participle 'doing' is incorrect with 'always' for past habitual context—use past 'did' or present 'do' depending on meaning; 'copy work' is usually one word 'copywork'; 'that is from writing by pen or pencil' is awkward—use 'written with a pen or pencil'. Ensure subject-verb agreement ('work that are' could be 'work that is' if singular) and consistent tense. Suggestion: decide present habitual ('I always do') or past ('I always did').
× Also, I love writing instead of typing.
✓ Also, I prefer writing to typing.
'Instead of' is not wrong but 'prefer ... to ...' is more natural for expressing preference. Use the correct comparative structure 'prefer X to Y'.
× Not already I type on laptop or laptop keyboard because I have a laptop and I do my office work from laptop.
✓ No, I do not use a desktop; I type on my laptop because I have one and I do my office work on it.
'Not already' is ungrammatical; likely intended 'No' or 'Not really'. 'I type on laptop or laptop keyboard' repeats and lacks articles—use 'my laptop' and 'on it'. Preposition 'from laptop' should be 'on my laptop'. Also clarify contrast with desktop.
× I am a supervisor so yeah I do laptop work by keyboard but not desktop.
✓ I am a supervisor, so I do my work on a laptop using the keyboard, not on a desktop.
Use possessive 'my work', preposition 'on' for devices, and include articles 'a desktop' or 'on a desktop'. 'By keyboard' is unnatural—use 'using the keyboard'.
× I first starting using computer when I, when I was in class, uh, 8th and after that I learned basic.
✓ I first started using a computer when I was in 8th class, and after that I learned the basics.
'Starting' should be past 'started' to match 'first'. Include article 'a computer'. 'When I was in class, 8th' is reordered to 'when I was in 8th class'. 'Learned basic' should be 'learned the basics'.
× Later, after I finished high school, I taking, I, I, I took formal typing classes, uh, and practice regularly.
✓ Later, after I finished high school, I took formal typing classes and practiced regularly.
Remove filler repetitions. Use past tense 'took' and 'practiced' to match time frame after finishing high school. 'I taking' is incorrect.
× So now I can type at around 30 to 40 words per week.
✓ So now I can type around 30 to 40 words per minute.
Typing speed is measured in words per minute, not per week. Change 'at around' to 'around' and correct the unit to 'per minute'.
× As well as I know that my typing is good as 30 to 40 per minute.
✓ As far as I know, my typing speed is about 30 to 40 words per minute.
'As well as I know' is incorrect; use 'As far as I know'. 'Good as' is incorrect—use 'about' or 'around'. Include 'words' and 'words per minute' for clarity.
× And if I want to approve it, I just training and uh, like daily training or daily practice, uh, is improve my writing.
✓ And if I want to improve it, I just train daily; regular practice improves my typing.
'Approve' is the wrong verb; the correct verb is 'improve'. Use base form 'train' after 'just', or better 'I train daily'. 'Daily training or daily practice, is improve my writing' is ungrammatical—combine into 'regular practice improves my typing'. Ensure subject-verb agreement.
