Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make your answer more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific reasons with linking words and a brief example. Correct small grammar issues (e.g. “type my notes on the computer”). Avoid repeating the same idea (comfortable) twice.

Example: I prefer typing to handwriting because it’s faster and more convenient. For example, when I study I type my notes on a laptop, which lets me organize them quickly and search for information later.

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence, then one specific supporting detail and avoid repetition. Use linking words (for example, because) and correct collocations (e.g. “use my laptop” or “take notes on my laptop”).

Example: Yes, I use a laptop keyboard every day because most of my study materials are digital. For example, during lectures I take notes on my laptop and save them in folders so I can review them easily.

Suggestion: Lead with a clear time phrase, then give one or two concise details. Use linking words to connect ideas (e.g. “but” is fine) and avoid hesitations like “I should say.”

Example: I learned to type when I was in primary school. My teacher introduced the basics, and although it felt difficult at first, I practiced regularly and picked it up quickly.

Suggestion: Be specific about the method and its effect. Avoid filler words (“uh”) and unclear phrasing. Mention the website name or type of practice, explain briefly how it helped, and give a recommendation if appropriate.

Example: I improved my typing by using an online typing program that offers timed exercises and accuracy feedback. It helped me increase speed and reduce errors, so I would recommend similar practice sites to other learners.

× I prefer typing.

✓ I prefer typing.

This sentence is correct. 'Prefer' is correctly followed by the gerund 'typing'. No change needed.

× when I study, I can type my note in computer.

✓ When I study, I can type my notes on the computer.

Use plural 'notes' for general reference to multiple notes and the preposition 'on' with 'computer'. Also add the definite article 'the' before 'computer' when referring to a specific device.

× I type on a laptop keyboard every day.

✓ I type on a laptop keyboard every day.

This sentence is correct. The article 'a' before 'laptop keyboard' is appropriate for general reference.

× when I study my major, I usually use laptop and take a note on the keyboard.

✓ When I study my major, I usually use my laptop and take notes on the keyboard.

Add the possessive pronoun 'my' to indicate ownership of the laptop. Use plural 'notes' for general note-taking. 'On the keyboard' is acceptable, but typically we say 'on my laptop' or 'on the keyboard'—here 'on the keyboard' is retained to match the original meaning.

× One good thing is that it's more comfortable than handwriting.

✓ One good thing is that it is more comfortable than handwriting.

Contraction 'it's' is acceptable in speech; no grammatical correction needed. This entry is to note that the sentence already follows third-person singular agreement between subject 'it' and verb 'is'.

× I should say it was when I was in primary school, my class teacher taught me how to type on a keyboard.

✓ I should say it was when I was in primary school; my class teacher taught me how to type on a keyboard.

This original contains a comma splice connecting two independent clauses. Replace the comma with a semicolon or split into two sentences to correct sentence structure.

× It was difficult, but I learned very quickly.

✓ It was difficult, but I learned very quickly.

This sentence is correct. Past tense 'was' and 'learned' consistently describe past events.

× I used to use the website How to type.

✓ I used the website 'How to Type'.

'Used to use' is awkward; 'used' alone or 'used to use' can both express past habits but here 'I used the website' is clearer. Also capitalize and punctuate the website title. This correction preserves past reference while improving style.

× It was uh, it was beneficial for me how to type faster, so I recommend it to everyone.

✓ It was beneficial for helping me type faster, so I recommend it to everyone.

Remove filler 'uh' and the redundant 'it was' repetition. Change 'beneficial for me how to type faster' to 'beneficial for helping me type faster' or 'beneficial in helping me type faster' to create a grammatically correct and natural phrasing. Use a comma before the coordinating conjunction 'so' when joining independent clauses.
