✓ To be honest, I prefer typing because typing helps me write faster. In addition, I can reorganize the biography and edit my work. In addition, I can use spell-check tools.
'Spell words' is incorrect collocation; English uses 'spell-check' or 'spell-checker' or 'spell words' is not idiomatic. Also 'works' is plural noun meaning creative outputs, but here 'work' (uncountable or singular) is more natural when referring to tasks or written pieces. Suggest using 'spell-check tools' or 'spell check' and 'work' instead of 'works'.

✓ Actually I have only one laptop, so I use it to do my homework and my work every day. Therefore I type on the laptop keyboard much more than others.
Missing definite article: English requires 'the laptop keyboard' when referring to a specific keyboard. 'Other' is incorrect; use 'others' to mean 'other people' or 'other devices' depending on context. Suggest adding 'the' before 'laptop keyboard' and using 'others' or rephrasing to 'more than on other devices'.
× Well, I learned how to type when I was in high school because in that year my parents have watched me a laptop, so I use it to practice to type every day.
✓ Well, I learned how to type when I was in high school because that year my parents bought me a laptop, so I used it to practice typing every day.
Tense and verb choice errors: 'have watched me a laptop' is incorrect; likely meant 'bought me a laptop' (past simple). Use past simple 'bought' to match 'learned' and 'was in high school'. 'Use it to practice to type' is ungrammatical; correct is 'used it to practice typing' (gerund after 'practice'). Suggest using consistent past tense and correct verb 'buy'.

✓ To be honest, there are many ways to improve typing. For example, I usually use online typing courses or websites since I do my homework on my laptop, such as writing essays.
Multiple errors: 'purchase the type on the website an indication' is ungrammatical. 'Purchase' may be okay but collocation is wrong; better 'use online typing courses or websites'. 'Like writing essay' needs plural 'essays' and 'such as' or 'for example'. Also use gerund/plural correctly. Suggest clear phrasing: 'use online typing courses' and 'writing essays'.
