Pontuação: 65.0Sugestão: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers (uh, um), and give one specific reason with a brief example. Use linking words to connect reason and example.
Exemplo: I prefer handwriting because it helps me remember information better. For example, when I take notes by hand during lectures, I tend to recall key points more easily than when I type, because writing forces me to summarize and process the material.

× This is because when I study something I uh, when I use handwriting, it can make me remember well.
✓ This is because when I study something, using handwriting helps me remember it well.
The original repeats clauses and uses 'when I use handwriting, it can make me remember well' which is awkward. Replace the clause with a gerund phrase 'using handwriting' to show cause and use 'helps me remember it well' for a natural result. Also add a comma after the introductory clause and include the object 'it'.
× Yes, of course, I usually desktop keyboard.
✓ Yes, of course, I usually use a desktop keyboard.
The original lacks the verb 'use' and the article before 'desktop keyboard'. Add the verb and the indefinite article 'a' to form a complete, grammatical sentence.
× This is because my job uh usually use keyboard uh, as writing uh, for writing.
✓ This is because my job usually requires me to use a keyboard for writing.
The subject-verb relationship is unclear and the pronoun/object are missing. Use 'my job requires me to use' to show who performs the action, include the article 'a' before 'keyboard', and simplify 'as writing, for writing' to 'for writing' for clarity.
× So that's why I.
✓ So that's why I do.
The sentence is incomplete and missing the main verb. Adding 'do' completes the thought, though in speech it would be better to specify the action ('prefer handwriting', 'use a desktop keyboard', etc.).
× When I was younger, I used to learn, umm, using keyboard.
✓ When I was younger, I used to learn how to use the keyboard.
'Used to learn, using keyboard' is awkward and ungrammatical. Use 'used to learn how to use the keyboard' to indicate a past habitual action and include the article 'the' before 'keyboard'.
× So uh, when I learned this keyboard, using keyboard is so hard.
✓ So, when I learned to use the keyboard, using it was very hard.
Combine tenses correctly: 'learned to use the keyboard' is natural. Replace the repeated 'keyboard' with the pronoun 'it' and use past tense 'was' to match the time frame. Use 'very hard' instead of 'so hard' for formality.
× I use one finger, but nowadays I'm using all of my.
✓ I used to type with one finger, but nowadays I use all of my fingers.
Match past habit with 'used to' and specify 'type with one finger'. For the present, use simple present 'I use' to describe current ability and include the noun 'fingers' to complete the phrase.
× Umm, when I was beginner, I uh, used to practice uh, typing every day after school, uh, which make me improve my typing skills.
✓ When I was a beginner, I used to practice typing every day after school, which helped me improve my typing skills.
Add the article 'a' before 'beginner'. Use 'used to practice typing' for past habit. The relative clause must use past tense 'helped' to match the main clause. Remove filler words for clarity.
