Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and avoid repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence, give one or two specific reasons with a linking word, and finish with a short concluding sentence. Correct small grammar issues (e.g., "I prefer handwriting" not "I prefer the old way to of handwriting").

Example: I prefer handwriting because it helps me remember information better. For example, when I take notes by hand I recall facts more easily later, which is useful for studying. Therefore, I usually choose pen and paper over typing.

Suggestion: Make the response more fluent and avoid filler words (umm, like). Start with a direct answer (Yes) then give two concise reasons using linking words (for example, because / also). Be specific about tasks to show concrete details.

Example: Yes, I type on a laptop every day because my job as a content creator requires online research and editing videos. For example, I use YouTube to find music and ideas, and I also complete English tasks on my laptop daily.

Suggestion: Keep the answer structured: state the time clearly, then provide one specific memory as supporting detail. Reduce informal fillers and repeated adjectives. Use linking words like "after that" or "for example" to connect ideas.

Example: I learned to type in the second grade at primary school. We had 20-minute sessions on a large computer, and everyone looked forward to their turn. For example, we would line up and practise typing whatever we wanted, which made it the highlight of the school day.

Suggestion: Avoid long, confusing sentences. Give a clear topic sentence (Yes/No or No, because...), then explain how you maintain or improve typing with specific activities and a linking word for clarity. Correct collocations ("typing on a computer", "taking notes").

Example: I don't feel I need to practise much because I type every day. For instance, in my previous job as a real estate agent I typed client notes and property details while talking to customers, which improved my speed and accuracy. Today, daily computer use continues to keep my typing skills sharp.

× I would say handwriting because it's better for the brain and it's easier when you use handwriting for the brain to remember what you are writing down.

✓ I would say handwriting because it is better for the brain and it is easier for the brain to remember what you write down when you use handwriting.

Pronoun and reference are unclear and word order is awkward. Replace contractions for formality consistency, change 'it's easier when you use handwriting for the brain to remember what you are writing down' to a clearer structure: 'it is easier for the brain to remember what you write down when you use handwriting.' This places the subject 'the brain' next to 'easier' and uses the simple present 'write' for general truth.

× And I, I and I'm, I'm, I'm like to live like the old ways.

✓ And I like to live in the old ways.

Redundant stuttering fragments should be removed. Use 'like to live in the old ways' (or 'in the old-fashioned way') for correct preposition and idiomatic expression. Original had extra pronoun forms and incorrect preposition.

× Like in the primary school we always in my generation, we used pen and paper.

✓ In primary school, in my generation we always used pen and paper.

Word order is incorrect and has an unnecessary article 'the' before 'primary school.' Move time/place phrase to the front: 'In primary school, in my generation, we always used pen and paper.' This fixes sentence structure and article use.

× So I prefer the old way to of handwriting.

✓ So I prefer the old way of handwriting.

The phrase 'way to of' is incorrect. Use either 'way of handwriting' or 'the old way, handwriting.' Removing the extra 'to' corrects preposition usage.

× I would say yes, because I, my job is umm, content creator.

✓ I would say yes, because my job is a content creator.

The original has disfluent filler words and incorrect clause order. Remove filler and use 'my job is a content creator' with the article 'a' for correct noun phrase.

× So I need to go on the Internet to see, to get inspired by new ideas and see people who have new ideas.

✓ So I need to go on the Internet to get inspired by new ideas and to see people who have new ideas.

Redundant infinitive 'to see, to get inspired' and awkward coordination. Use parallel infinitives: 'to get inspired' and 'to see.' This clarifies purpose and keeps verb forms consistent.

× And I have to go into YouTube to fix music.

✓ And I have to go on YouTube to edit music.

Use preposition 'on' with platforms (on YouTube). 'Fix music' is informal/ambiguous; 'edit music' or 'work on music' is clearer.

× And I also have to do my English tasks every day.

✓ I also have to do my English tasks every day.

Remove redundant conjunction 'And' at clause start for smoother formal speech. Tense (present) is fine; correction is style-related to improve fluency.

× So I would say like every day I'm on my laptop and I press the keyboard every day.

✓ So I would say I am on my laptop every day and I use the keyboard every day.

Avoid 'like' filler, use 'am' rather than contraction for clarity, and 'use the keyboard' is more natural than 'press the keyboard.' Maintain simple present for habitual action.

× Oh, I still remember it. Actually.

✓ Oh, I still remember it, actually.

Combine fragments into a single sentence; punctuation and clause connection improve naturalness. Tense is past memory but present perfect/simple present can be used; here 'still remember' is present simple and correct.

× It was like in the second grade in primary school.

✓ It was in the second grade of primary school.

Use 'of' rather than 'in' after 'grade' for correct noun phrase: 'the second grade of primary school.' Keep past tense 'was.'

× We, it was a big computer and we had like, I think it was 20 minutes each to sit there and type on whatever we want.

✓ We had a big computer, and I think we had twenty minutes each to sit there and type whatever we wanted.

The original mixes subjects and tenses and uses fillers. Clarify subject 'we had a big computer,' use consistent past tense 'wanted,' and replace 'like' with nothing. Spell out numbers in speech text optionally; keep past tense for past events.

× And it was very interesting, very popular, and everyone was looking so forward for their time on the computer.

✓ It was very interesting and very popular, and everyone was looking forward to their time on the computer.

Use correct collocation 'looking forward to' (preposition 'to' required) and remove extra 'so' before 'forward.' Maintain past continuous 'was looking' or simple past 'looked' depending on intended meaning.

× It was lining up and it was so excited.

✓ They were lining up and everyone was so excited.

Subjects mismatch: 'it was lining up' is incorrect. Use 'they were lining up' or 'people were lining up.' 'Everyone was so excited' matches plural sense. Use past continuous for ongoing past action.

× That was the best time of the school day.

✓ That was the best time of the school day.

Sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. Included here to indicate it was checked.

× I don't necessary need to improve my typing, I think because I've done it for so many years and I worked as a real estate agent for six years where I was making all the progress from selling houses from the customers and had customers every day talking to me while I was tapping into computer what I was saying.

✓ I don't necessarily need to improve my typing, because I have done it for many years and I worked as a real estate agent for six years where I made progress by selling houses and dealing with customers, who talked to me every day while I typed what I was saying into the computer.

Multiple issues: 'necessary' should be 'necessarily' (adverb), wordiness and tense consistency. Use present perfect 'have done' for experience, simplify 'making all the progress from selling houses from the customers' to 'made progress by selling houses and dealing with customers.' Use 'typed what I was saying into the computer' for correct verb and preposition order. Clarify pronoun references and remove redundant commas.

× So I think I'm very good at typing in the computer.

✓ So I think I'm very good at typing on the computer.

Use 'typing on the computer' (preposition 'on' with computer) instead of 'typing in the computer.'

× So just by using it every day, I improve my typing.

✓ So just by using it every day, I improve my typing.

The sentence is acceptable in present simple for habitual action. No grammatical change needed; left as is to reflect habitual improvement.
