Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?

× I usually type note on my phone when I study and I can edit it easily.
✓ I usually type notes on my phone when I study, and I can edit them easily.
Countable noun 'note' should be plural 'notes' because 'usually' implies repeated actions (singular/plural issue, ID 1). 'It' incorrectly refers to 'notes' (plural) so use 'them' (pronoun agreement, ID 12). Also add a comma before 'and' to join independent clauses (sentence structure, ID 26).
× I usually tie in my laptop keyboard every day, uh, because, you know, I'm a student, uh, I often work and study, uh, in different place, like, uh, uh, in university or cafe at home.
✓ I usually type on my laptop keyboard every day because, you know, I'm a student and I often work and study in different places, like at university, in cafes, or at home.
'Tie' is a misspelling of 'type' (verb form error, ID 10). The preposition should be 'on' for keyboard (preposition error, ID 11). 'Different place' should be plural 'different places' (singular/plural issue, ID 1). 'In university or cafe at home' is awkward; use parallel prepositions: 'at university, in cafes, or at home' (sentence structure and preposition corrections, IDs 26 and 11). Remove filler 'uh' for clarity and join clauses with 'and'.
× So I think this is.
✓ So I think so.
'So I think this is' is incomplete and ungrammatical for the intended expression; 'So I think so' or 'I think so' is the correct short response (sentence without a verb / sentence structure error, IDs 23 and 26).
× Well, I learned to tie on the keyboard when I was dry in primary school.
✓ Well, I learned to type on the keyboard when I was nine in primary school.
'Tie' should be 'type' (verb form, ID 10). 'Dry' is incorrect; likely intended 'nine' (word choice), so replace with appropriate age. Use past tense 'learned' correctly remains. Ensure clarity by specifying the number 'nine' (sentence structure, ID 26).
× The teacher showed us the basic fingers and, uh, we practice with simple exercise.
✓ The teacher showed us basic finger positions, and we practiced with simple exercises.
Mix of tenses: 'showed' is past, so 'practice' should be past 'practiced' (past tense issue, ID 5). 'Basic fingers' is incorrect collocation; use 'basic finger positions' (word choice/adjective use, ID 13). 'Exercise' should be plural 'exercises' because multiple or repeated drills are typical (singular/plural issue, ID 1).
× Uh, now I try, I keep practice at home and I can try, I can tie quickly.
✓ Now I keep practicing at home, and I can type quickly.
'Keep practice' is incorrect; use 'keep practicing' (verb + -ing form, ID 8). 'Try' repetition is unnecessary; use concise construction. 'Tie' should be 'type' (verb form, ID 10). Maintain present tense 'keep practicing' to match 'now'.
× I didn't practice formal typing exercise, instead I played online video game with my friends and try to type quickly to keep up with them.
✓ I didn't practice formal typing exercises; instead, I played online video games with my friends and tried to type quickly to keep up with them.
Tense consistency: main clause is past 'didn't practice' so following actions should be past 'played' and 'tried' (past tense issue, ID 5). 'Exercise' and 'video game' should be plural 'exercises' and 'video games' (singular/plural issue, ID 1). Add a semicolon or period to separate clauses and a comma after 'instead' for clarity (sentence structure, ID 26).
× Uh, I practice like this everyday and now I become uh, typing faster.
✓ I practice like this every day, and now I am becoming faster at typing.
'Everyday' as one word is an adjective; use 'every day' for frequency (word form, ID 13). 'Now I become typing faster' is ungrammatical: use present continuous 'I am becoming' and proper phrase order 'faster at typing' (present tense issue, ID 6; verb form/word order, ID 26). Remove filler 'uh' for clarity.
