Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make the answer more natural and coherent: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fragments, use linking words, and give a specific example. Correct grammar (e.g. 'I can quickly type, erase mistakes, or research online'; 'more difficult' not 'difficult'). Keep within 3–4 sentences.

Example: I prefer typing because it is faster and more efficient for sharing information. For example, I can quickly compose emails, erase mistakes, or look up facts online. However, I still believe handwriting is important for note-taking and memory retention.

Suggestion: Make the response a full, well-connected set of sentences: begin with a topic sentence, use linking words (e.g. 'because', 'so'), and avoid vague comparisons ('a more challenging'). Give one specific supporting detail about convenience or use.

Example: I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I use the laptop for both work and study. It is portable, so I can work in different locations like the library or a café. I find desktop keyboards less comfortable because they take up more space and I rarely sit at a fixed desk.

Suggestion: This answer is clear and specific. To improve, combine sentences into a smoother flow and add a linking phrase to show time reference (e.g. 'Back then' or 'During that time'), and mention a brief result (how well you learned).

Example: I learned to type in primary school because it was a required lesson. At that time we used online learning websites with interactive activities, which helped me build basic typing skills early on.

Suggestion: Organize into 2–3 concise sentences with linking words and correct grammar ('which helps me develop muscle memory and make fewer errors'; 'which motivates me'). Be specific about a program or a measurable result to strengthen the answer.

Example: I improve my typing by using online typing programs regularly to increase speed and accuracy, which helps me develop muscle memory and make fewer errors. I also watch tutorial videos about finger placement and posture to avoid strain. Additionally, I set small goals—for example, increasing my words-per-minute by five each month—to stay motivated.

× By typing because it is a more efficient and fast form of sharing information, for example sending emails, I can quickly type erase any mistakes or research online.

✓ I prefer typing because it is a more efficient and faster way of sharing information. For example, when sending emails I can quickly type, erase any mistakes, or research online.

Run-on sentence and incorrect or missing connectors; 'efficient and fast' should be 'more efficient and faster' to compare correctly; 'form' is better as 'way' here; commas and verbs need separation and 'when sending emails' clarifies the example. Also added missing verbs and punctuation to avoid a fused sentence.

× Compared to handwriting which requires more time and difficult.

✓ Compared to handwriting, which requires more time and is more difficult.

Missing verb 'is' and comparative structure incorrect. 'Difficult' needs 'more difficult' to compare; add comma after the introductory clause. This fixes sentence structure and makes comparison clear.

× Although I do believe handwriting is just as important.

✓ Although I do believe handwriting is just as important,

This sentence is a sentence fragment when standing alone because the 'although' clause expects a main clause. In context it should be attached to previous sentence or rephrased. Here adding a comma indicates it continues the previous thought; alternatively remove 'Although' to make a complete sentence: 'I believe handwriting is just as important.'

× Type on a laptop keyboard every day because I use it for work and studying.

✓ I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I use it for work and studying.

Missing subject 'I' created a fragment. Adding the subject completes the sentence and matches tense and meaning.

× I don't prefer to use desktop because large keyboards are not suitable for me and I find it a more challenging compared to little keyboards on a laptop.

✓ I don't prefer to use a desktop because large keyboards are not suitable for me, and I find them more challenging compared to the smaller keyboards on a laptop.

Missing article 'a' before 'desktop'; pronoun agreement: 'large keyboards' should be referred to as 'them'; 'a more challenging' is incorrect — use 'more challenging' without 'a'; 'little keyboards' should be 'smaller keyboards' for natural comparative adjective. Added comma before 'and' to join clauses.

× I was taught how to type on a keyboard in primary school because it was one of the required lessons.

✓ I was taught how to type on a keyboard in primary school because it was one of the required lessons.

Sentence is grammatically correct in past tense; no change necessary.

× We mainly used online learning websites that also had interactive fun activities.

✓ We mainly used online learning websites that also had interactive, fun activities.

Comma needed between adjectives 'interactive' and 'fun' to separate coordinate adjectives. Otherwise tense and structure are correct.

× I regularly use online typing programs to increase speed and accuracy, which helps me to develop muscle memory and make less errors.

✓ I regularly use online typing programs to increase speed and accuracy, which helps me develop muscle memory and make fewer errors.

'Helps me to develop' can be 'helps me develop' for conciseness; 'less errors' is incorrect—use 'fewer errors' for countable noun 'errors'.

× I also watch videos about proper finger placements and posture to prevent strain.

✓ I also watch videos about proper finger placement and posture to prevent strain.

'Finger placements' is awkward; 'finger placement' is the standard uncountable noun for the concept. The rest of the sentence is correct.

× And I set small goals, for example improving my words per minute by 5 each month, which gives me motivated.

✓ I set small goals, for example improving my words-per-minute by 5 each month, which keeps me motivated.

Start sentence without conjunction 'And' for formality. 'Words per minute' is better hyphenated when used as a compound modifier; 'gives me motivated' is ungrammatical—use 'keeps me motivated' or 'motivates me'. Also removed extra comma before 'for example' for clarity.
