× While it's depend, whenever I'm in hurry I always prefer to typing.
✓ While it depends, whenever I'm in a hurry I always prefer typing.
The verb 'depend' should be in third person singular present 'depends' to match subject 'it' (present tense agreement). Also 'in hurry' needs the article 'a' before 'hurry'. Remove 'to' before 'typing' because 'prefer' is followed by the gerund 'typing'. Suggestion: use 'it depends' and 'in a hurry' and follow 'prefer' with the -ing form.
× Like for example if I need to send any messages or I need to send an e-mail to somebody.
✓ For example, if I need to send messages or an e-mail to somebody.
The phrase 'Like for example' is redundant; 'for example' is sufficient. 'Messages' can be plural without 'any' in this context. No -ing error here but streamline sentence. Suggestion: remove unnecessary words and keep parallel structure 'send messages or an e-mail'.
× So I usually prefer typing on my phone or in computer.
✓ So I usually prefer typing on my phone or on my computer.
Use the preposition 'on' with both 'phone' and 'computer' for parallel structure. Also include the possessive 'my' before 'computer'. Suggestion: use consistent prepositions and possessives.
× But otherwise when I have a free time at my home and I want to write something then I do handwriting like I have.
✓ But otherwise, when I have free time at home and I want to write something, I write by hand.
'A free time' is incorrect; 'free time' is uncountable and does not need 'a'. 'At my home' is better as 'at home'. 'Do handwriting' is unnatural; use 'write by hand' or 'handwrite'. Suggestion: treat 'free time' as uncountable and use correct collocations 'at home' and 'write by hand'.
× Yes, as I'm a working woman, I'm a working as a manager post in Boston Pizza.
✓ Yes, as I'm a working woman, I'm working as a manager at Boston Pizza.
Do not use 'a' before 'working' in 'I'm a working as'; 'working' should follow 'I'm' without 'a'. Use 'working as a manager' and the preposition 'at' for workplaces. Suggestion: say 'I'm working as a manager at Boston Pizza.'
× So I have to do typing every day on the keyboard in the computer.
✓ So I have to type every day on the computer keyboard.
Use the verb 'type' rather than the noun phrase 'do typing'. 'On the computer keyboard' is the natural word order. Suggestion: use verb form and natural noun order.
× Uh, regarding my uh, work like in the emails, I have to send the emails to head office and sometimes I have to answer the complaining.
✓ Regarding my work, for example with e-mails, I have to send e-mails to the head office and sometimes I have to answer complaints.
Use 'e-mails' (or 'emails') consistently and 'the head office' requires the definite article. 'Answer the complaining' is incorrect; use 'answer complaints' or 'respond to complaints'. Suggestion: use articles correctly and choose the noun 'complaints'.
× So I need to type everyday.
✓ So I need to type every day.
Write 'every day' as two words when it means 'each day'. Tense 'need to type' is fine. Suggestion: separate 'every day'.
× I used to be type on keyboard after like 8 standard when I was in school.
✓ I started typing on the keyboard after around 8th grade when I was in school.
'Used to be type' is ungrammatical. Use 'started typing' or 'used to type'. '8 standard' should be '8th grade' or 'standard 8' depending on variety; 'around' or 'after' clarifies. Suggestion: use 'started typing' or 'I used to type' and correct grade expression.
× So I have like a subject, one major subject as a computer.
✓ So I had a subject, a major subject in computers.
Tense should match past context 'had'. Use 'a subject' and 'a major subject in computers' (or 'computer studies'). Suggestion: match tense and use appropriate noun phrase.
× So we have practice a lot on the computer and we need to type the emails on that and where things over there so it's used.
✓ We practiced a lot on the computer and we needed to type e-mails; we used the computer for various tasks.
Original sentence has mixed tenses and unclear phrasing. Change to past tense 'practiced' and 'needed' to match the past context, and rephrase the latter part to clarify meaning. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and express activities clearly.
× Well, in my job I used to everyday typing the computers, it already improved day by day.
✓ Well, in my job I type on computers every day; my typing has improved day by day.
'Used to everyday typing' is incorrect for current routine—use present simple 'I type'. 'It already improved' should be present perfect 'has improved' to show change up to now. Suggestion: use present simple for habits and present perfect for improvements over time.
× Otherwise when I have a free time at my home, I usually practice on my computer as I just making some notes regarding my daily routine or sometimes I have to send the letters to my mother so I can.
✓ Otherwise, when I have free time at home, I usually practice on my computer by making notes about my daily routine or sometimes by sending letters to my mother.
Remove 'a' from 'a free time', use 'at home' -> 'at home' or simply 'home'. Use 'practice on my computer by making notes' for correct preposition and method; 'regarding' is awkward here—use 'about'. Final clause 'so I can' is incomplete and was removed. Suggestion: simplify and use correct prepositions and gerunds for purposes ('by making', 'by sending').
