Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make your response grammatically correct and more concise. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your current preference, then briefly contrast with childhood experience using one linking word (e.g., "although" or "but"). Reduce hesitations and unclear phrases (e.g., "failed personal") and give one specific reason or example why typing is easier.

Example: I prefer typing now because I use digital devices for most tasks. Although I enjoyed handwriting as a child, typing is faster and lets me edit easily, for example when I write essays or emails on my laptop.

Suggestion: Good clarity and structure—start with a topic sentence and give reasons. Improve by correcting small grammatical errors and tightening phrases. Replace "work for my laptop" with "work on my laptop" and avoid unsupported claims ("saves energy and battery life"); instead mention portability and convenience, and give one brief specific example of where you use it.

Example: I usually type on my laptop because it is more convenient and portable. For instance, I often work on trains and in cafes, where a laptop is much easier to carry than a desktop.

Suggestion: Be precise and correct grammar. Use a clear topic sentence with a time reference, then add one specific detail about the learning experience. Avoid unclear phrases like "before smartphones were command"—replace with "before smartphones became common."

Example: I learned to type at school during computer lessons when I was around ten years old. In those hands-on sessions we practiced touch-typing and learned basic keyboard shortcuts, which helped me later.

Suggestion: Good content—clear topic sentence and supporting detail. Remove hesitations and tighten phrasing. Add a specific method or tool you use (e.g., online typing tests, lessons) and mention a measurable improvement if possible.

Example: I improved my typing through daily practice and using online typing tests. For example, practicing 20 minutes a day with a typing app increased my speed from 40 to 70 words per minute over a few months.

× When I was a child, I prefer handwriting because we usually write a lot in books and copies as it failed personal.

✓ When I was a child, I preferred handwriting because we usually wrote a lot in books and copies and it felt more personal.

The sentence mixes past context with present tense 'prefer' and present 'write'. Use past tense 'preferred' and 'wrote' to match 'When I was a child'. 'failed personal' is incorrect word choice; 'felt more personal' conveys intended meaning. Suggestion: keep tenses consistent and choose correct verbs ('felt').

× Yet as I I grew older, umm I tend to type a lot because umm we usually use a lot of digital devices hence it's and it works easier and better.

✓ As I grew older, I tended to type a lot because we started using many digital devices, so it was easier and worked better.

Multiple issues: duplicated 'I', inconsistent tense (mixing past 'grew' with present 'tend'), filler words 'umm', and awkward phrases 'it's and it works easier'. Change to past tense 'tended' and 'worked' to match 'grew older'. Replace 'hence' with 'so' and simplify 'many digital devices'. Remove fillers. Suggestion: avoid fillers, keep tense consistent, and use clear conjunctions.

× I usually type on my laptop keyboard because it is more convenient and portable.

✓ I usually type on my laptop's keyboard because it is more convenient and portable.

Use the possessive form 'laptop's keyboard' or 'the laptop keyboard'. Omitting the possessive/article is acceptable in casual speech but for grammatical accuracy add possessive. Suggestion: use 'my laptop's keyboard' or 'the laptop keyboard' for clarity.

× I work for my laptop either at home or while traveling and so using the laptop saves energy and battery life compared with running a desktop.

✓ I work on my laptop either at home or while traveling, so using the laptop saves energy and battery life compared with running a desktop.

Use the correct preposition 'on' with 'work' (work on a laptop). Remove 'for' which is incorrect here. Also add a comma before 'so' for readability. Suggestion: memorize common verb+preposition pairs (work on, work with).

× I started using keyboard when I was at school.

✓ I started using the keyboard when I was at school.

Missing definite article 'the' before 'keyboard' when referring to a specific, known object in that context. Also 'started using keyboard' is unidiomatic. Suggestion: use 'the keyboard' or 'a keyboard' depending on context.

× During computer lessons we had hands on sessions where we practice typing on keyboards and that was before smartphones were command and so most of my early experiences started from those classes.

✓ During computer lessons we had hands-on sessions where we practiced typing on keyboards, and that was before smartphones became common, so most of my early experiences came from those classes.

Multiple errors: 'hands on' should be hyphenated 'hands-on' as adjective; 'practice' should be past 'practiced' to match past context; 'command' is wrong word, should be 'common'; 'started from' is awkward, use 'came from'. Suggestion: ensure vocabulary accuracy ('common') and maintain past tense throughout.

× Improving my typing came from regular practice and consistency.

✓ My improvement in typing came from regular practice and consistency.

Sentence mixes gerund 'Improving' as subject awkwardly. More natural to use 'My improvement in typing' or 'Improving my typing came from' can be acceptable but passive. Suggestion: rephrase to clarify subject and keep noun forms consistent.

× I started practicing as a child on both my laptop and smartphone and over time with daily practices, umm, it helped me become much faster and more accurate.

✓ I started practicing as a child on both my laptop and smartphone, and over time, with daily practice, it helped me become much faster and more accurate.

Use 'practice' (uncountable) instead of 'practices' and keep commas properly placed. Remove filler 'umm'. Tense 'started' and 'helped' are correctly past, but plural 'practices' is incorrect. Suggestion: use 'daily practice' and avoid fillers for clarity.
