Typing— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your answer is clear and relevant with good reasons. To improve, make the response more concise and natural by combining ideas and adding a brief linking phrase. Avoid repeating obvious words and try to use a more varied vocabulary (e.g., "legible" instead of "not that great").

Exemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting because my handwriting isn’t very legible, and typing is more efficient. Moreover, it reduces paper waste, which is better for the environment.

Sugestão: Good direct answer and relevant details, but the second sentence is slightly unclear ("encoding the students create" is awkward). Improve by using precise phrasing and linking words to explain why a laptop is useful for your work. Keep sentences concise and natural.

Exemplo: I type on my laptop keyboard every day. As a teacher, I use it to prepare PowerPoint presentations and to grade and record students’ work, which makes my tasks much more efficient.

Sugestão: Your answer gives a clear time and context, but phrasing is a little repetitive ("in a keyboard"). Make it more natural by using smoother wording and a linking phrase to explain what you learned. Keep it concise.

Exemplo: I learned to type in sixth grade as part of a required computer class. We were taught the parts of a computer and proper touch-typing techniques.

Sugestão: A solid, specific answer with practice methods. Improve by using more natural phrasing ("practicing on my keyboard"), adding a linking word for flow, and giving a brief example of a practice routine or resource to sound more informative.

Exemplo: I improve my typing by practicing on my keyboard every day. For example, I practice touch-typing without looking at the keys and focus on correct hand placement, and I sometimes use online typing drills to increase my speed.

× I prefer typing over handwriting, primarily because my penmanship is not that great.

✓ I prefer typing to handwriting, primarily because my penmanship is not that great.

Use the correct preposition after 'prefer'. The pattern is 'prefer A to B' rather than 'prefer A over B' in more formal English. Suggestion: use 'prefer X to Y' for preferences between two items.

× Also, typing means less use of paper, which is good for the environment.

✓ Also, typing uses less paper, which is good for the environment.

The original uses an awkward noun phrase 'means less use of paper'. Use a clearer verb structure: 'uses less paper'. This corrects the prepositional/nominal construction and makes the sentence more natural.

× As a teacher, this helps me prepare my PowerPoint presentation and it also helps me in encoding the students create.

✓ As a teacher, this helps me prepare my PowerPoint presentations, and it also helps me encode the work my students create.

Problems: 'prepare my PowerPoint presentation' could be plural if routine, but main issue is preposition and word choice: 'helps me in encoding' is unidiomatic. Use the verb 'encode' without 'in' and clarify object: 'the work my students create' or 'students' work'. Also make 'presentation' plural if referring to routine preparation.

× I learned to type in a keyboard during 6th grade.

✓ I learned to type on a keyboard in sixth grade.

Use the correct preposition 'on' with 'keyboard' and place time expressions idiomatically ('in sixth grade' not 'during 6th grade'). Also use 'sixth' in words for formality. The error involves preposition choice and word order.

× It was a subject required to pass elementary, and in that subject we were taught the parts of the computer, including how to type in a keyboard correctly.

✓ It was a required subject to pass elementary school, and in that subject we were taught the parts of the computer, including how to type on a keyboard correctly.

Corrections: add 'school' after 'elementary' for clarity; use 'required subject' order; use 'on a keyboard' not 'in a keyboard'. The errors are incorrect prepositions and slight word order issues.

× I improve my typing skills by practicing in my keyboard.

✓ I improve my typing skills by practicing on my keyboard.

Use the preposition 'on' with 'keyboard' (we practice on a keyboard, not in). This fixes the preposition error.

× Every day I try to type without looking at the keyboard itself, and I also try to type with the proper hand placement.

✓ Every day I try to type without looking at the keyboard, and I also try to type with the proper hand placement.

Remove the unnecessary 'itself' — it's redundant. The preposition use is fine, but 'itself' is unnecessary and slightly awkward.

× That way I can have a much faster typing speed.

✓ That way I can achieve a much faster typing speed.

Better verb choice: 'have' is not wrong grammatically, but 'achieve' is more natural when referring to increasing speed. This improves clarity and register while keeping present ability ('can').
