Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 56.0Suggestion: Cải thiện: Rèn luyện cấu trúc câu rõ ràng hơn (câu chủ đề + lý do + ví dụ), sửa lỗi ngữ pháp và phát âm từ, dùng liên từ hợp lý để mạch ý. Cụ thể: 1) Thay “handwritings” bằng “handwriting”; 2) Dùng thì phù hợp (“whenever I write”); 3) Tránh lặp từ (“I I”); 4) Dùng liên từ như “because” và “so” đúng vị trí, ngắt câu hợp lý; 5) Giữ độ dài không quá 4-5 câu. Luyện nói chậm, phát âm rõ từ như “eraser” và “delete”.
Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because it lets me delete mistakes easily. For example, when I type, I can correct spelling or grammar instantly, so my work looks neater. Therefore, I rarely write long texts by hand anymore.

× Actually I prefer typing to handwritings.
✓ Actually I prefer typing to handwriting.
The noun 'handwriting' is uncountable when referring to the general concept of writing by hand. Using the plural 'handwritings' is incorrect here. Use 'handwriting' (singular/uncountable) to contrast with 'typing'. Suggestion: Use uncountable form 'handwriting' for the general activity or style of writing by hand.
× This is because whenever I wrote something wrong, I can easy to delete it by a button.
✓ This is because whenever I write something wrong, I can easily delete it with a button.
Tense: The clause describes a habitual action, so present simple 'write' should be used rather than past 'wrote'. Word form: 'easy' should be the adverb 'easily'. Preposition: Use 'with' or 'by' a button; 'with' is more natural. Suggestion: Use present simple for habitual actions and adverb forms for manner words.
× However, using a paper I I have to use erasers or something is called.
✓ However, when I use paper I have to use erasers or something similar.
Sentence structure and redundancy: 'using a paper' is unidiomatic; use 'use paper'. Duplicate 'I' is an error. 'or something is called' is unclear; use 'or something similar'. Suggestion: Keep subject once and use clear phrases like 'something similar'.
× It make my notebook is very dirty, so I don't want to use it anymore.
✓ It makes my notebook very dirty, so I don't want to use it anymore.
Subject-verb agreement and redundancy: The verb should agree with singular subject 'it' => 'makes'. Remove the extra 'is' after 'notebook' since 'makes my notebook very dirty' is correct. Suggestion: Ensure verb agrees with subject and avoid unnecessary verbs.
× Absolutely yes.
✓ Absolutely.
Style and naturalness: 'Absolutely yes' is redundant; 'Absolutely' or 'Yes' alone is more natural. Suggestion: Use concise affirmation words.
× Nowadays I learn I was writing on my COM my laptops so I use everyday to write my iOS and which have me easy to delete the mistake because I always use wrong vocabulary and the grammar so it's suitable for that.
✓ Nowadays I write on my laptop every day, so I use it to write my essays and it makes it easy to delete mistakes because I often use the wrong vocabulary and grammar, so it is suitable for that.
Tense and word order: Use present simple 'write' for habitual action. 'COM' and 'iOS' are unclear and likely incorrect; replaced with 'laptop' and 'essays' to fit context. 'use everyday' -> 'use it every day'. 'have me easy to delete' -> 'it makes it easy to delete'. 'always' replaced with 'often' for naturalness. Suggestion: Use clear nouns, correct verb tenses, and natural word order.
× I started to learn how to type on a keyboard when I started in primary school.
✓ I started to learn how to type on a keyboard when I was in primary school.
Redundancy and tense: Use 'was in primary school' rather than 'started in primary school' to indicate the time period. Suggestion: Use 'was in' to describe being at school during that period.
× At that time the curriculum have the IT and we have a chance to assess to the computers.
✓ At that time the curriculum had IT and we had a chance to access the computers.
Subject-verb agreement and word choice: Past tense 'had' matches 'At that time'. 'have a chance to assess to the computers' is incorrect: 'access the computers' is correct. Suggestion: Use correct past tense verbs and the verb 'access' for using computers.
× And this is the first time I use the keyboard to write some basic words which help me which make me very excited about it.
✓ And this was the first time I used the keyboard to write some basic words, which helped me and made me very excited about it.
Tense consistency: Referring to a past event, use past tense 'was', 'used', 'helped', 'made'. Remove repeated 'which' and combine clauses for clarity. Suggestion: Keep verbs in the same past tense when describing past experiences.
× Well, I just know how to type in the primary school, but I started to use this more when I go to the high school.
✓ Well, I first learned how to type in primary school, but I started to use it more when I went to high school.
Tense: Use past tense 'learned' and 'went' to describe past events. 'I just know' is present and incorrect here. 'this' should be 'it' referring to typing. Suggestion: Use past simple for past experiences and place adverbs appropriately.
× This is because in my curriculum I have a lot of presentations and some other reports need to use laptop and keyboard to write it.
✓ This is because in my curriculum I have a lot of presentations and other reports that need a laptop and keyboard to write them.
Articles and agreement: Use 'a laptop' and 'them' to agree with plural 'reports'. 'some other reports need to use laptop' is ungrammatical; rephrase to 'reports that need a laptop'. Suggestion: Ensure article and pronoun agreement with nouns.
× That's why I start to improve it whenever I.
✓ That's why I started to improve it whenever I had the chance.
Tense and incomplete clause: Use past tense 'started' to match previous context. The clause 'whenever I' is incomplete; finish with 'had the chance' or similar. Suggestion: Complete subordinate clauses and keep tense consistent.
