Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise, correct grammar, and provide one clear reason plus a brief supporting detail. Avoid repetition and use linking words to connect ideas.

Ejemplo: I prefer handwriting because it feels more comfortable and helps me remember information better. For example, when I take notes by hand I tend to retain facts longer, so I usually write rather than type.

Sugerencia: Give a direct topic sentence stating whether you type daily, then add one specific context with a linking word. Avoid unfinished sentences and unclear phrasing.

Ejemplo: I don't type every day, but I use my laptop keyboard when I need to prepare presentations for my studies. For instance, during exam periods I type slides and reports on my laptop.

Sugerencia: Answer clearly with a short time reference, then explain with a specific reason and linkers. Correct grammar and avoid negative overstatements; propose progress instead of fixed inability.

Ejemplo: I started learning to type when my father bought me a laptop at school age. However, I wasn't consistent with practice, so although I can type basic text, I'm still improving my speed and accuracy.

Sugerencia: Provide one clear recommendation using linking words and a specific practice method or resource. Keep it concise and avoid repetition.

Ejemplo: To improve typing, practise daily with short exercises and use online typing programs to track speed and accuracy. For example, I would spend 15 minutes each morning on a typing website and gradually increase speed while reducing errors.

× I prefer handwriting because I had don't have that much experience with typing on the computer.

✓ I prefer handwriting because I don't have much experience typing on the computer.

The original mixes past auxiliary 'had' with negative 'don't', creating an ungrammatical phrase. Use the simple present 'don't have' to match the present preference. Also 'that' is unnecessary before 'much experience' and 'with' can be omitted before the gerund 'typing'. Suggestion: use 'I don't have much experience typing...'.

× However, my parents had encouraged me to do so.

✓ However, my parents encouraged me to do so.

The past perfect 'had encouraged' is unnecessary because there is no reference to another past event that occurred later. Use simple past 'encouraged' to state a past action. Suggestion: use simple past when just reporting a past fact.

× But I prefer handwriting because it's more comfortable.

✓ But I prefer handwriting because it is more comfortable.

Contraction 'it's' is acceptable in speech, but for clarity maintain 'it is'. No grammatical error other than formality; keep tense consistent with present preference.

× As I mentioned earlier, I really have to type on anything, but there are days when I need to make presentations for my studies, so I do typing on my laptop when whenever I need it.

✓ As I mentioned earlier, I rarely have to type, but there are days when I need to make presentations for my studies, so I type on my laptop whenever I need to.

'Have to type on anything' is unidiomatic; 'rarely have to type' or 'don't really have to type' fits meaning. 'Do typing' is incorrect; use the verb 'type'. Remove redundant 'when'. Suggestion: say 'I rarely have to type... so I type on my laptop whenever I need to.'

× So it's more of a.

✓ So it's more of a preference.

The original is an incomplete sentence fragment. Add a noun to complete the thought; 'preference' clarifies the meaning. Suggestion: avoid sentence fragments by finishing the idea.

× My father bought a laptop for me when I was younger, so I started learning then.

✓ My father bought a laptop for me when I was younger, so I started learning then.

This sentence is grammatically correct. No change needed; past simple 'bought' and 'started' appropriately describe past events.

× However, I was not consistent so I am not perfect at it and not so confident as well because I am really bad at typing.

✓ However, I was not consistent, so I am not very good at it and I am not very confident because I am not good at typing.

Mixed tenses and informal phrasing create awkwardness. Keep present result ('I am not very good') to reflect current state, use parallel structure 'I am not very good... and I am not very confident.' Avoid 'really bad' in formal response; use 'not very good.' Add comma before coordinating conjunction.

× I think the key to improve your typing is it just being consistent with the practice.

✓ I think the key to improving your typing is just being consistent with practice.

After 'key to' use the gerund 'improving' not the base verb 'improve'. Remove unnecessary 'it' and the definite article before 'practice'. Suggestion: use 'the key to doing something' structure and 'consistent with practice' or 'consistent practice.'

× You just have to type daily, at least for you to be able to type at a normal speed.

✓ You just have to type daily, at least so that you can type at a normal speed.

Use 'so that you can' to express purpose/result rather than 'for you to.' Also 'type daily' is fine; 'at least' should be followed by a purpose clause. Suggestion: use 'so that' + modal 'can' for clearer purpose statements.

× Consistency is really necessary to be better.

✓ Consistency is really necessary to improve.

'To be better' is vague; use 'to improve' or 'to get better' for clarity. 'Consistency is necessary to improve' is more natural. Suggestion: use 'improve' as the verb after 'necessary to'.
