Typing— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be careful with grammar (tense and verb forms) and reduce filler words. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Keep it concise (max 3–4 sentences).

Ví dụ: I prefer typing to handwriting because it is faster and more convenient. For example, when I take notes or write essays I can edit and search text quickly, which saves time. Therefore I usually choose typing for most tasks.

Gợi ý: Answer the current-question directly (present tense) and avoid irrelevant background. Use a clear topic sentence stating which device you use, then add a brief reason with a linking word. Watch repetition and hesitations.

Ví dụ: I usually type on a laptop every day because it is portable and easy to use. For instance, I can work in different places like the library or a café, which helps me stay productive.

Gợi ý: Give a clear, precise answer to the time question and remove fillers. Provide one short supporting detail explaining how you learned, using a linking word for coherence.

Ví dụ: I learned to type when I was about ten years old. I taught myself at a local computer shop because my cousin often took me there and showed me simple typing exercises.

Gợi ý: Use correct sentence structure and avoid splitting sentences. Start with a clear method, then give a specific example or technique you use to improve, linked logically. Mention measurable practice if possible.

Ví dụ: I improve my typing by practising regularly and using online typing tests to measure my speed. For example, I practise for 20 minutes a day and track my words-per-minute so I can see steady improvement.

× It would took me a lot of time when I write things compared to typing.

✓ It would take me a lot of time when I wrote things compared to typing.

Errors: 'would took' mixes modal 'would' with past-tense 'took' — after modal verbs use base form ('take'). Also the time reference in the clause should match past narration: 'when I wrote' not 'when I write'. Suggestion: Use 'would take' and 'wrote' to make tense consistent and grammatical.

× Well, back when I was a student, I would really be in front of my computer all the time, especially when I had a lot of things to do.

✓ Well, back when I was a student, I was really in front of my computer all the time, especially when I had a lot of things to do.

Error: 'would really be' is awkward here; use simple past 'was' to describe habitual past state. 'Would' can express habitual past for repeated actions but with 'be' describing a state it's more natural to use 'was.' Suggestion: Replace 'would really be' with 'was really' to clearly state past habitual condition.

× And it would, it's really convenient for me.

✓ And it was really convenient for me.

Errors: Sentence mixes conditional/modal 'would' with present 'it’s' causing tense and structure confusion. The context is past (back when I was a student), so use past 'was.' Suggestion: Keep tense consistent: 'it was really convenient for me.'

× Well, I just learned when I was, I think 10 years old, my cousin would always invite me to go to the computer shop, and that's when I learned.

✓ Well, I learned when I was, I think, 10 years old; my cousin always invited me to go to the computer shop, and that's when I learned.

Errors: 'I just learned' uses present perfect/just incorrectly for past time given ('when I was 10'); use simple past 'I learned.' Also 'would always invite' is acceptable for habitual past but mixing with 'always invited' is clearer. Suggestion: Use consistent past tense: 'I learned' and 'my cousin always invited me.'

× Well, I think I just improved typing by doing it more often and I. Was just used to doing it since I have to learn for my academic requirements.

✓ Well, I think I improved my typing by doing it more often. I was just used to doing it because I had to for my academic requirements.

Errors: Fragmentation and tense inconsistency: 'and I. Was just' is a broken sentence. 'I think I just improved' mixes present with past; in this context simple past 'improved' fits. 'Was just used to' requires past context, so use 'was' and 'had to' for past obligation. Also 'learn for my academic requirements' is incorrect; use 'had to' or 'practice for' instead. Suggestion: Combine into two full sentences, use past tense 'improved' and 'was used to,' and 'had to' for past necessity.
