Typing— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and fluent: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers (uh), and limit to 3–4 sentences. Add a linking word to connect advantages and give a brief specific example. Improve vocabulary by replacing repetitive words with synonyms (e.g., format, edit).

Exemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting because it lets me easily format and edit my work. For example, I can change font size and style to highlight important points, and I can quickly correct mistakes without rewriting. Therefore, typing saves time and produces neater documents.

Sugestão: Give a direct answer first, then provide specific details using linking words. Remove hesitations and unclear phrases. Clarify routine and contexts (office vs home) and avoid confusing expressions like "personal letter."

Exemplo: I use both a desktop and a laptop depending on where I am. At the office I mainly use a desktop for emails and reports, while at home I type on my laptop or iPad for personal messages and documents.

Sugestão: Begin with a clear time reference, eliminate repetition and grammatical errors, and use linking words to sequence events (e.g., after, then). Give one specific detail about the course to make the answer more concrete.

Exemplo: I learned to type shortly after finishing my secondary school exams. My brother enrolled me in a local typing course, and I attended daily lessons where we practiced touch-typing and speed drills for a few months.

Sugestão: Give a clear method and use specific actions and linking words to explain progress. Avoid vague phrases like "become a pro" and reduce fillers. Mention concrete practice techniques (timed exercises, typing software) and duration to show effort.

Exemplo: I improved my typing by practicing regularly while preparing for a computer-based jury exam. Specifically, I did timed typing exercises, used online typing software to increase speed, and practiced writing full compositions every day for several months.

× I prefer typing to handwriting because, uh, typing When I type something it, I can uh, decorate it as I wish.

✓ I prefer typing to handwriting because when I type something, I can decorate it as I wish.

The repeated 'typing' and misplaced comma interrupt sentence flow. No explicit -ing error but the gerund 'typing' is used correctly; remove redundancy and fix punctuation for clarity. Suggestion: use a single 'typing' as gerund and place commas appropriately to connect clauses.

× I can increase the size of the font and decrease the size of the font and I can give effect to my writing.

✓ I can increase or decrease the font size, and I can add effects to my writing.

The phrase 'give effect to my writing' is unnatural; use 'add effects' or 'apply effects'. Also combine repetitive phrases ('increase the size of the font and decrease the size of the font') into 'increase or decrease the font size' for concision and correct noun phrase order.

× At the same time, I can make a correction to my writing.

✓ At the same time, I can correct my writing.

'Make a correction to my writing' is wordy; use the verb 'correct' which is more natural in this context. This avoids awkward article usage and results in a more idiomatic expression.

× Uh, actually I type on my desktop and laptop and also in my, uh, iPad 2 or when I stay at my office, there is a desktop and oh, and I need to e-mail some, uh, somebody I type on my desktop, but when I remain, I stay at home.

✓ Actually, I type on my desktop and laptop and also on my iPad. When I am at the office, I use the desktop and I use my desktop when I need to e-mail someone; at home I use my personal laptop.

Multiple tense and preposition problems: use 'on' for devices ('on my iPad'), use present simple consistently for habits ('I type', 'I use'). Replace 'remain' with 'am' and 'somebody' with 'someone'. Reorder clauses for clarity and correct preposition use.

× When I need to type something, I type it on my personal letter, the same.

✓ When I need to type something, I type it on my personal laptop as well.

'Personal letter' is incorrect; context suggests 'laptop'. 'The same' is unnatural here—use 'as well' or 'too'. Correct pronoun/ noun choice and idiomatic ending.

× I'll still I can't remember after my After my secondary school certificate exam, I went to a local shop where the typing was being taught and my one of my brothers make me admit it to this course and I used to go there every day and learn typing there with along with.

✓ I still can't remember exactly, but after my secondary school certificate exam I went to a local shop where typing was taught. One of my brothers enrolled me in the course, and I used to go there every day to learn typing.

Multiple past-tense errors and word order issues: use present simple 'I still can't remember', past simple for completed actions ('I went', 'typing was taught', 'enrolled me', 'used to go'). Replace 'make me admit it to this course' with 'enrolled me in the course'. Remove redundant phrases and correct prepositions ('to learn typing', not 'with along with').

× I used to type when I was, uh, as I said after my secondary school exam, but I become a pro uh, in typing when I took preparation for the jury exam, because, you know, the exam is computer based.

✓ I used to type after my secondary school exam, but I became proficient in typing when I prepared for the jury exam because the exam was computer-based.

Tense and verb form issues: 'become' should be past simple 'became' to match time frame. Use 'proficient in typing' instead of 'a pro in typing' for formality. 'Took preparation' is unnatural—use 'prepared for'. Match tense in subordinate clause ('exam was computer-based').

× I need to type a big composition and I spent a lot of time to be expert.

✓ I had to type a long composition and I spent a lot of time becoming an expert.

'Big composition' is better as 'long composition' in this context. 'To be expert' is incorrect; use 'becoming an expert' or 'to become an expert'. Use past tense 'had to' and 'spent' to match the narrative.
