Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Be more concise and clear: start with a direct topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Avoid repetition and grammar errors (e.g. "hate doing it on a keyboard"). Use correct collocations ("type on a keyboard/phone") and limit to 2–3 sentences.
Example: I prefer handwriting overall because I find it easier to concentrate and remember information. However, I often type on my mobile phone for quick messages because it’s faster.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: Give a clear direct answer then add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Correct grammar and phrasing (e.g. "I don't have office-related work"). Keep it to 2–3 sentences and use precise vocabulary like "manage" or "run my business".
Example: No, I don't type on a desktop or laptop every day because I don't have office-based work. Instead, I manage my small business mainly via my mobile phone, where I handle emails and orders.

× I prefer typing when it's on mobile phone but I absolutely hate it doing on the keyboard.
✓ I prefer typing on my mobile phone, but I absolutely hate typing on a keyboard.
The student used incorrect prepositions and awkward word order ('when it's on mobile phone', 'hate it doing on the keyboard'). Use 'on my mobile phone' and 'typing on a keyboard'. Also remove unnecessary 'it' and reorder to 'hate typing on a keyboard' for natural English. Suggestion: Use 'type on' + device and place the verb 'typing' immediately after 'hate' when expressing dislike.
× So if I had to choose I would always choose handwriting to or do my text or something.
✓ So if I had to choose, I would always choose handwriting to write my texts or something.
The sentence misuses 'to' and has unclear pronoun/reference. 'Handwriting to or do my text' is ungrammatical. Use 'handwriting to write my texts' or 'handwrite my texts'. Also add comma after conditional clause. Suggestion: Use 'choose handwriting to write' or 'choose to handwrite' and pluralize 'texts' for generality.
× Even assignments.
✓ Even assignments.
Short fragment 'Even assignments.' is acceptable as a concise response in speech. No change needed; keep as is. Suggestion: If making a full sentence, write 'Even assignments are handwritten.' but fragment is okay in spoken context.
× No, I don't have work related to office so I don't have to type something on keyboard or laptop.
✓ No, I don't have office-related work, so I don't have to type on a keyboard or laptop.
Use the compound adjective 'office-related' and proper article 'a keyboard' and 'on a keyboard'. 'Type something on keyboard' is incorrect; use 'type on a keyboard'. Also add comma before 'so'. Suggestion: Hyphenate compound adjectives and include articles with countable nouns.
× I usually do all of my work related activities from my small business through mobile phone.
✓ I usually do all my work-related activities for my small business on my mobile phone.
Use 'work-related' with hyphen, 'for my small business' rather than 'from', and the preposition 'on my mobile phone' for device usage. 'Through mobile phone' is incorrect. Suggestion: Use 'on my phone' or 'on my mobile phone' to describe performing tasks using a device.
× I want to type keyboard on 1st standard in our computer subject.
✓ I learned to type on the keyboard in first grade in our computer class.
Tense and wording are incorrect: 'I want to type' should be past tense 'I learned to type'; '1st standard' is better as 'first grade'; 'computer subject' becomes 'computer class'. Also use 'on the keyboard' and 'learned to type' or 'learned typing'. Suggestion: Use past tense for past events and natural English phrases like 'learned to type' and 'computer class'.
× It was mandatory for students to type on keyboard and loan for the finals.
✓ It was mandatory for students to type on the keyboard and practice for the finals.
Missing article 'the' before 'keyboard'. The word 'loan' is incorrect here; likely intended 'practice'. Replace 'loan' with 'practice' or 'prepare'. Ensure 'the keyboard' and correct verb choice. Suggestion: Use articles with specific objects and choose verbs that match meaning (practice/prepare).
× So it was a very good practical skills that still is relevant today.
✓ So it gave me very good practical skills that are still relevant today.
Subject-verb agreement and sentence structure: 'a very good practical skills' mixes singular article 'a' with plural 'skills'. Rephrase to 'gave me very good practical skills' and 'are still relevant' to match plural 'skills'. Suggestion: Ensure articles agree with noun number and match verb agreement ('skills... are').
× There are many different websites that teach a typing.
✓ There are many different websites that teach typing.
Unnecessary article 'a' before 'typing' (an uncountable gerund). Use 'teach typing' or 'teach you how to type'. Suggestion: Do not use 'a' before gerunds; say 'teach typing' or 'teach you to type'.
× Similarly, you can get familiar with the keyboard layout and how to place your finger on the keyboard.
✓ Similarly, you can get familiar with the keyboard layout and how to place your fingers on the keyboard.
Pluralize 'finger' to 'fingers' because typing uses multiple fingers; also consistent article use 'the keyboard'. Suggestion: Use plural when referring to general actions involving multiple items (fingers).
× Also you can also request someone to teach on typing.
✓ Also, you can ask someone to teach you how to type.
Avoid repeating 'also'. Use 'ask' instead of 'request' for natural speech; 'teach on typing' is incorrect—use 'teach you how to type'. Add comma after 'Also'. Suggestion: Use 'ask someone to teach you to type' or 'ask someone to teach you how to type' for clarity.
