× You don't need to grab any items like paper and find pen.
✓ You don't need to grab items like paper or a pen.
Use of articles is incorrect: 'paper' can be uncountable but 'pen' requires an indefinite article 'a'. Also 'any items like' is awkward; 'items like paper or a pen' is clearer.
× You just have around you your phone always.
✓ You always have your phone with you.
Incorrect word order and preposition: 'have around you your phone always' is ungrammatical. Use 'have ... with you' and place adverb 'always' before the main verb or after auxiliary for natural word order.
× But I think that handwriting is really important to in schools in general.
✓ But I think that handwriting is really important in schools in general.
Extra preposition 'to' is unnecessary. Correct phrase is 'important in schools'. Removing 'to' fixes the sentence structure.
× So I.
✓ So I do.
Fragment: 'So I.' is incomplete. Add the auxiliary 'do' to complete the clause ('So I do' meaning 'I also think so').
× No usually I don't cause in my house we only have one laptop for every for each member of family.
✓ No, usually I don't, because in my house we only have one laptop for each member of the family.
Missing punctuation and conjunction: 'cause' should be 'because'. Also preposition and determiner errors: use 'for each member of the family' not 'for every for each member of family'.
× But I type on my phone daily 'cause my I communicate with my friends and usually when I watch social media I write my comments.
✓ But I type on my phone daily because I communicate with my friends, and usually when I browse social media I write comments.
Colloquial ''cause' should be 'because' in formal correction; extra 'my' is erroneous. Use 'browse social media' rather than 'watch' and 'write comments' (no 'my' needed). Also add commas for clarity.
× I first started when I was about 10 years old when I had computer science lessons in my school.
✓ I first started when I was about 10 years old, when I had computer science lessons at my school.
Tense is okay but preposition: use 'at my school' rather than 'in my school'. Add a comma for readability.
× However, I became much faster when I really enjoyed learning computer science by myself when I when we had when I had my first laptop.
✓ However, I became much faster when I started enjoying learning computer science by myself, when I got my first laptop.
Sentence contains repetition and incorrect tense/phrasing. Replace 'really enjoyed' with 'started enjoying' to indicate when improvement began; 'got my first laptop' is natural. Remove repeated 'when I'.
× So that is the time when I became faster on typing.
✓ So that is when I became faster at typing.
Use 'at typing' not 'on typing'. Also 'the time when' can be simplified to 'when'.
× I think the quote practice makes perfect.
✓ I think the quote 'practice makes perfect' fits well.
Original is unclear: likely intended to quote the proverb. Use 'the quote' with the quoted phrase and correct verb 'fits well' or simply 'I think the saying "practice makes perfect" is true.' Here we provide one clear correction.
× It's suits best for for it because when you are type so much in your lessons at your home it became much faster and you could improve it just by practicing.
✓ It suits it best because when you type a lot during lessons or at home you become much faster, and you can improve just by practicing.
Multiple errors: 'It's suits' incorrect auxiliary — use 'It suits it best' or simply 'It suits best' but 'It suits it best' is awkward; corrected to 'It suits it best' changed to 'It suits it best' then simplified to 'It suits it best because...' Also 'are type' should be 'type', 'so much' -> 'a lot', tense 'became' should be present 'become' to match general truth, 'could' -> 'can'.
× There is a lot of websites when you could practice or in general by writing some.
✓ There are a lot of websites where you can practice, or you can improve in general by writing.
Subject-verb agreement and preposition: 'There is' should be 'There are' for 'websites'; 'when' should be 'where' to refer to websites; 'could' changed to 'can' for general ability; 'by writing some' is awkward—'by writing' suffices.
