I do prefer typing rather than handwriting because in our modern generation right now we used technologies. We already have the keyboard and it's easier for us to communicate. While handwriting is more traditional, it is taking some effort and time.

I do not type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day. I only use my laptop or my desktop. Umm when I have a work to do, but I often use my cell phone every day.

Grammar

Present tense issue

× I do prefer typing rather than handwriting because in our modern generation right now we used technologies.

I prefer typing to handwriting because in our modern generation we use technology.

Tense and word choice: 'do prefer' is unnecessary for a simple preference; use 'prefer'. 'Rather than' is acceptable but 'prefer X to Y' is more natural. 'Right now' is redundant with 'modern generation' and 'used technologies' is incorrect tense and form; change to simple present 'we use technology' to describe a general truth. Suggestion: Use simple present for general facts and prefer concise phrasing.

Incorrect use of conjunction

× We already have the keyboard and it's easier for us to communicate.

We already have keyboards, and it's easier for us to communicate.

Count and article: 'the keyboard' implies a specific one; use plural 'keyboards' for general statement. Also add comma before 'and' joining two independent clauses. Suggestion: Use plural nouns for general references and punctuate compound sentences.

Present tense issue

× While handwriting is more traditional, it is taking some effort and time.

While handwriting is more traditional, it takes more effort and time.

Incorrect progressive: 'is taking' is awkward for habitual/general fact; use simple present 'takes'. Suggestion: Use simple present for regular or general situations.

Present tense issue

× I do not type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day.

I do not type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day.

No grammatical correction needed; sentence is acceptable. The auxiliary 'do' is used for emphasis and is fine here. No change necessary.

Singular and plural issue

× I only use my laptop or my desktop.

I only use my laptop or my desktop.

Sentence is grammatically fine; 'laptop' and 'desktop' are singular and correctly used to refer to devices. No change necessary.

Sentence structure errors

× Umm when I have a work to do, but I often use my cell phone every day.

When I have work to do, I use my laptop or desktop, but I often use my cell phone every day for quick tasks.

Structural and article errors: 'a work' is incorrect — 'work' is uncountable, so no article. The original has a fragment 'Umm when I have a work to do, but...' and mixes clauses incorrectly with 'but'. Clarify by making two balanced clauses and specify use of devices. Suggestion: Remove filler 'Umm', use 'work' without article, and connect clauses clearly with appropriate conjunctions.

Past tense issue

× I learned how to type on a keyboard on a very young age, I believe when I was on elementary school because we also have a subject which is computer technology and the professor teach us on how to work on computers.

I learned how to type on a keyboard at a very young age, I believe when I was in elementary school, because we had a subject called computer technology and the teacher taught us how to use computers.

Multiple issues: Prepositions: use 'at a very young age' and 'in elementary school' (ID 11). Tense: switch 'have' to past 'had' and 'teach' to past 'taught' to match past time (ID 5). Article and word choice: 'the professor' -> 'the teacher' or 'a teacher'; 'teach us on how to' -> 'taught us how to' and 'work on computers' -> 'use computers'. Suggestion: Use 'at' with ages, 'in' for school levels, match verb tenses to the time frame, and prefer 'teacher' and 'taught us how to use computers'.

Verb + -ing form

× I improved my typing by using keyboard every day, even writing an essay or communicating through social media.

I improved my typing by using a keyboard every day, even by writing essays or communicating through social media.

Articles and gerund usage: need 'a keyboard' for general reference (ID 22). Parallel structure: include 'by' before both gerund phrases to show same method. 'Writing an essay' -> plural 'writing essays' for general practice. Suggestion: Use articles correctly and keep parallel gerund phrases with consistent structure.

Singular and plural issue

× I use keyboards that also helps me to improve my typing skills.

I use keyboards that also help me improve my typing skills.

Subject-verb agreement: 'keyboards' is plural, so verb should be 'help' not 'helps' (ID 27). Also omit 'to' after 'help' when followed by base verb, and 'improve my typing skills' is preferred. Suggestion: Ensure verb agrees with subject number and use correct verb patterns after 'help'.
