× Usually I prefer handwriting because it helps me, uh, remember well.
✓ Usually I prefer handwriting because it helps me remember things better.
The adverb placement and word choice are awkward. 'Remember well' is less natural than 'remember things better.' Remove filler 'uh' and place 'better' after the verb phrase. Use a direct object 'things' to clarify what is remembered.
× However, uh, typing, uh, sometime it is uh, more convenient and quicker than hand diving, uh, especially when you want to send the quick message or something like that.
✓ However, typing is sometimes more convenient and quicker than handwriting, especially when you want to send a quick message.
Use 'sometimes' (adverb) instead of 'sometime.' Replace 'hand diving' with 'handwriting.' Remove filler 'uh' and the vague phrase 'or something like that.' Use 'a quick message' not 'the quick message.' Adjust word order: subject 'typing' + verb 'is' + adverb 'sometimes.'
× No, I don't typing every day, just sometime, because nowadays I don't have a suitable work.
✓ No, I don't type every day, only sometimes, because I don't have suitable work at the moment.
After 'do' use the base form 'type' not 'typing.' Use 'sometimes' (adverb) rather than 'sometime.' 'Suitable work' is uncountable, so omit 'a.' 'Nowadays' and 'at the moment' are redundant; 'at the moment' clarifies temporary situation.
× I just uh, I studying so I typing at my phone.
✓ I am currently studying, so I type on my phone.
Use present continuous 'I am studying' for ongoing action. After 'so' use simple present 'I type' for habitual action. Use preposition 'on' with 'my phone.' Remove filler 'uh' and duplicate 'I.'
× I learned it when I enjoy it to institution for basic computer skills and then I supported by work as a trainee at small company.
✓ I learned it when I attended an institution for basic computer skills, and then I worked as a trainee at a small company.
Use past tense 'attended' instead of 'enjoy' (wrong verb) and 'learned.' 'Attend an institution' is the correct collocation. 'Supported by work' is incorrect; use 'worked as a trainee.' Include articles: 'a small company.' Rearrange to two coordinated clauses with 'and then.'
× I improved my typing by practicing because I trying to typing anything in notes by quick way that helps me a lot.
✓ I improved my typing by practicing because I try to type everything quickly in my notes, which helps me a lot.
After 'because' use present simple 'I try' for habitual action. Use base verb 'type' after 'try,' not 'typing.' 'Anything in notes' is vague; use 'everything in my notes.' Use adverb 'quickly' and relative clause 'which helps me a lot' for clarity.
