× Well, I do prefer typing as I have a laptop and I need to do my assignment for university.
✓ Well, I prefer typing because I have a laptop and I need to do my assignments for university.
Use simple present 'prefer' instead of 'do prefer' for natural style; use 'because' rather than 'as' for clarity; 'assignments' should be plural to match the general meaning of multiple tasks. Suggestion: use 'I prefer' and pluralize countable nouns when speaking generally.
× That's why I want to prefer typing and it is less consuming time and I can rewrite them very quickly.
✓ That's why I prefer typing: it is less time-consuming and I can rewrite my work very quickly.
Do not use 'want to prefer' — 'prefer' expresses the preference directly. Use compound adjective 'time-consuming' with hyphen and place it after noun correctly as 'less time-consuming'. Replace 'them' with 'my work' for clarity and agreement. Suggestion: avoid unnecessary modal 'want to' before stative verbs like 'prefer' and use correct adjective forms.
× Uh, not every day I type on my laptop, but uh, weekly, two or three days I need to type on my laptop.
✓ I don't type on my laptop every day; usually I type on it two or three days a week.
English requires auxiliary 'do' for negation in simple present: 'I don't type'. Use adverbial phrase 'two or three days a week' to express frequency. Suggestion: place negation with 'do/does' and use natural frequency expressions.
× Uh, when I have uh, assignment or, uh, exam on my university, that time I need to type on my laptop.
✓ When I have an assignment or an exam at university, I need to type on my laptop then.
Use articles 'an' before singular countable nouns 'assignment' and 'exam'. Use preposition 'at university' rather than 'on my university'. Place 'then' to indicate the time. Suggestion: include appropriate articles and correct prepositions.
× Well, I learned my typing skill in my childhood, uh, I have an old, uh, unused keyboard and I have practice a lot on it, Uh, and it came and it helped me to typing fast and accurate.
✓ I learned to type in my childhood. I had an old unused keyboard and I practiced on it a lot, and it helped me to type quickly and accurately.
Use 'learned to type' (learn + infinitive) rather than 'learned my typing skill'. Use past tense consistently: 'had' and 'practiced'. 'Practice' should be past tense 'practiced'. Use infinitive 'to type' after 'helped me' and adverbs 'quickly' and 'accurately' instead of adjectives. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and use correct verb forms and adverbs for manner.
× Uh, well, I want to improve my typing skill.
✓ I want to improve my typing skills.
'Typing skills' is normally plural when referring to ability in general. 'Want to' is fine for present desire. Suggestion: use plural 'skills' for general capabilities.
× And nowadays, uh, there are, there are lots of online games, uh, according to typing and I want to play them, uh, also, uh, if, uh, I practice in my home, uh, I think it would be better for me to improve my typing skill.
✓ Nowadays there are many online games for typing and I want to play them. Also, if I practice at home, I think it will help me improve my typing skills.
Use 'for typing' rather than 'according to typing'. Use 'many' instead of repetitive 'there are, there are'. Use preposition 'at home' not 'in my home' for general practice. Prefer 'will help me' for likely result rather than conditional 'would' when stating a plan. Use plural 'skills'. Suggestion: use appropriate prepositions and clearer sentence structure; split into two sentences for clarity.
