考官
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
考生
I actually prefer handwriting because I think typing is very complicated and it slows down my efficiency of typing words. It's also very hard to find each letter in its place.
考官
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
考生
I type on a laptop keyboard, but I don't type every day because I think that it's very tired and it also slows me down of my work, so I usually hand write.
考官
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
考生
I learned how to type when I had a laptop and I figured it out by myself, but unfortunately I thought that typing on AP Bird was so complicated for me because I couldn't find where the letter is and it slows me down.

How do you improve your typing?
考生
I improve my typing by practicing cause practice makes perfect and I also searched a few practices like typing practices online so that I could improve faster.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
分數: 62.0建議: Be more concise and natural: state your preference first, then give one or two specific reasons with clear linking words. Avoid repetition (e.g., “typing” and “typing words”). Also correct small grammar issues (e.g., “slows down my efficiency” → “slows me down” or “reduces my efficiency”).
範例: I prefer handwriting because it helps me concentrate and I write faster by hand. For example, when brainstorming I can jot ideas quickly without searching for keys, so I feel more productive.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
分數: 58.0建議: Lead with a direct answer, then give one clear reason using correct grammar and a linking word. Avoid awkward phrasing like “it's very tired” and “slows me down of my work.” Use “tiring” and “slows down my work” instead.
範例: I type on a laptop keyboard, but not every day. Because typing feels tiring for me and often slows down my workflow, I usually choose to handwrite notes instead.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
分數: 60.0建議: Give a specific time or age and keep the explanation clear. Avoid unclear references (what is “AP Bird”?) and correct tense/word choice (e.g., “it slowed me down”). Use linking words like “however” or “because” to connect ideas.
範例: I learned to type when I got my first laptop at age 14 and taught myself. However, at first it was difficult because I couldn’t find the keys quickly, so it slowed me down.
How do you improve your typing?
分數: 65.0建議: Start with a clear topic sentence then give specific methods and use linking words. Avoid casual contractions like “cause” and be specific about resources or routines (e.g., websites, exercises, daily minutes).
範例: I improve my typing by practicing regularly. For example, I use online typing programs like TypingClub for 20 minutes a day and do accuracy drills, which has helped me increase both speed and precision.
× I actually prefer handwriting because I think typing is very complicated and it slows down my efficiency of typing words.
✓ I actually prefer handwriting because I think typing is very complicated and it slows down my typing efficiency.
The phrase 'efficiency of typing words' is awkward; this is a quantifier/word-choice issue. Use the noun phrase 'typing efficiency' to be concise and natural. Keep tense and meaning unchanged.
× It's also very hard to find each letter in its place.
✓ It's also very hard to find each letter in its correct place.
Add the adjective 'correct' to clarify meaning; original sentence is missing an appropriate modifier. This is a preposition/word-choice refinement to improve clarity.
× I type on a laptop keyboard, but I don't type every day because I think that it's very tired and it also slows me down of my work, so I usually hand write.
✓ I type on a laptop keyboard, but I don't type every day because I think it is very tiring and it also slows me down at work, so I usually handwrite.
'Very tired' incorrectly describes an activity; the correct adjective is 'tiring' to describe something that causes tiredness (present participle form). 'Slows me down of my work' is incorrect preposition use; use 'slows me down at work.' 'Hand write' should be one word 'handwrite.' These are third person/verb form and preposition errors and word-formation corrections.
× I learned how to type when I had a laptop and I figured it out by myself, but unfortunately I thought that typing on AP Bird was so complicated for me because I couldn't find where the letter is and it slows me down.
✓ I learned how to type when I had a laptop and figured it out by myself, but unfortunately I found typing on AP Bird so complicated because I couldn't find where the letters were and it slowed me down.
Maintain consistent past tense: change 'thought' to 'found' (both past), 'is' to past 'were' for 'letters', and 'slows' to past 'slowed'. Also 'where the letter is' should be plural 'letters were' to match context. These are past tense and subject-verb agreement adjustments.
× I improve my typing by practicing cause practice makes perfect and I also searched a few practices like typing practices online so that I could improve faster.
✓ I improve my typing by practicing, because practice makes perfect, and I also use online typing exercises so that I can improve faster.
Use 'because' instead of informal 'cause'. Maintain present tense 'use' and 'can' to match 'I improve' (present habitual). 'Searched a few practices' is incorrect collocation; use 'use online typing exercises' or 'practices.' Also adjust verb forms: 'could' (past) to 'can' (present). This corrects verb + -ing usage and tense consistency.
