× Since my childhood childhood I have been using my hands to write something like assignment or anything like that.
✓ Since my childhood I have used my hands to write things like assignments and similar items.
The sentence repeats 'childhood' (redundancy) and has awkward structure and word choice. Present perfect continuous 'have been using' is acceptable but 'have used' is more natural here. 'Something like assignment or anything like that' is vague and ungrammatical; replace with 'things like assignments and similar items'. Also pluralize 'assignment' to 'assignments' for general meaning. Suggest avoiding repetition and using clear plural forms.
× But nowadays we have to do things by computer or laptop.
✓ Nowadays we have to do things on a computer or laptop.
Preposition use: 'do things by computer' is less natural than 'on a computer'. Use present simple 'have to do' is fine for habitual present. Suggest using 'on a computer or laptop' for correct collocation.
× Laptop so we have to be more comfortable with typing.
✓ Therefore, we need to be comfortable with typing on a laptop.
Fragment: 'Laptop so we have to...' is a sentence fragment and awkward. Use a connector like 'therefore' or 'so' and include complete clause. Also specify 'typing on a laptop' for clarity.
× So I prefer typing.
✓ So I prefer typing.
This sentence is acceptable; 'prefer' in present simple correctly expresses a general preference. No grammatical change needed. (Provided for completeness.)
× Well I have my own laptop so anything assignment or any presentation I have to prepare I prepared through the laptop.
✓ Well, I have my own laptop, so any assignment or presentation I have to prepare I do on the laptop.
Problems: missing commas for clarity, incorrect tense 'I prepared' (past) when talking about habitual actions — use present simple 'I do' or 'I prepare'. 'Anything assignment' is ungrammatical; use 'any assignment or presentation'. Preposition use: 'through the laptop' is odd — use 'on the laptop'.
× Only we have to When I was when I was a child, I learned about the computer through the computer classes.
✓ When I was a child, I learned about computers in computer classes.
The original contains extra words 'Only we have to' and repeated phrase 'when I was'. Remove redundancy and simplify: 'learned about computers in computer classes' is concise and grammatical. Use plural 'computers' for general topic and preposition 'in' for classes.
× We have to take one extra period to improve our computer skills when we were young.
✓ We had to take an extra period to improve our computer skills when we were young.
Tense mismatch: 'have to' (present) conflicts with 'when we were young' (past). Use past tense 'had to' to match the time reference. Also 'one extra period' sounds odd; 'an extra period' is more natural.
× I think by typing continuously or regularly on the daily basis, we can improve our typing and also learning the hack or how to how to improve, how to improve the speed of our typing through the online videos or from YouTube, we can launch something from that.
✓ I think that by typing regularly every day, we can improve our typing, and we can also learn tips on how to increase our typing speed from online videos or YouTube.
Multiple issues: incorrect use of 'on the daily basis' — use 'every day' or 'on a daily basis'; parallelism error mixing 'we can improve' and 'learning' — use parallel verbs 'we can improve' and 'we can also learn'. 'Learning the hack' is informal and ungrammatical; 'learn tips' or 'learn techniques' is better. 'How to how to improve' is repetition and should be removed. 'We can launch something from that' is unclear and unnecessary; remove it. The corrected sentence uses consistent verb forms and clearer prepositions.
