Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and avoid filler words (umm, but) and repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence stating preference, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words (for example, however).

Ejemplo: I prefer typing because it is faster and more accurate. However, I sometimes handwrite notes when I need to concentrate, for example during brainstorming or reading, because writing by hand helps me remember information better.

Sugerencia: Avoid repeating information and reduce fillers. Give a concise answer with one or two supporting details and a linking word to add clarity.

Ejemplo: I type on a laptop every day because it’s portable and lets me work anywhere. I don’t own a desktop, so the laptop is my only option and it’s more convenient for my schedule.

Sugerencia: Be certain rather than use hedging like “I guess.” Use past tense consistently and provide a brief specific detail about the learning experience to strengthen the answer.

Ejemplo: I learned to type when I was in primary school. We had formal typing classes where we practiced basic key positions, and afterwards I improved my speed through regular practice at home.

Sugerencia: Make the answer more concise and use clearer time references. Focus on one method and explain briefly why it helped, using linking words to connect reasons and results.

Ejemplo: I improved my typing by regularly typing my diary entries when I was in primary school. Because I enjoyed computers, this daily practice helped me build speed and accuracy over time.

× While most of the time I prefer typing because it is more effective and accurate when you are typing umm, but sometimes I also do some handwriting because it helps to concentrate.

✓ Most of the time I prefer typing because it is more effective and accurate, but sometimes I also handwrite because it helps me concentrate.

The sentence mixes conversational fillers and has awkward structure. Remove redundant 'while' and 'when you are typing' to make present simple consistent. Change 'do some handwriting' to the verb 'handwrite' and use 'helps me concentrate' to correctly use the pronoun and infinitive. Use a comma before 'but' joining two independent clauses.

× I always use a laptop to type umm because I only have a laptop and it is more efficient when you can carry it everywhere and do some work everywhere.

✓ I always use a laptop to type because I only have a laptop, and it is more convenient because I can carry it anywhere and work anywhere.

Replace 'when you can' (generic modal-like structure) with 'because I can' to reflect the student's personal ability; 'can' is a modal but here first-person present simple 'I can' is clearer. 'More efficient' is better as 'more convenient' in context. 'Do some work everywhere' is awkward; use 'work anywhere.' Remove filler 'umm' and add comma before 'and.'

× Umm, I don't have a desktop.

✓ I don't have a desktop computer.

Add noun 'computer' for clarity; otherwise sentence is grammatically acceptable. Remove filler 'umm.' This keeps present simple tense.

× I guess it was when I was in the primary school.

✓ I think it was when I was in primary school.

Use 'think' for present opinion rather than 'guess' for past event; both are acceptable but 'guess' + past 'was' is less natural. Also 'in primary school' is the correct form without 'the.'

× Umm, we all have the typing class when you can use the computer and the keyboard to type.

✓ We had typing classes where we could use the computer and keyboard to type.

Shift tense to past ('had') to match 'when I was in primary school.' Replace generic 'you' with 'we' to match subject. Use plural 'classes' for general school situation. Remove 'the' before 'keyboard' unless referring to a specific keyboard.

× We learned to type at that time and later you just practice typing by your own.

✓ We learned to type then, and later we practiced typing on our own.

Maintain past tense ('learned', 'practiced') for consistency. Replace generic 'you' with 'we' and correct 'by your own' to 'on our own.' Use past simple 'practiced' not present 'practice.'

× I just improve my typing by, uh, inputting my own Diaries into my computer when I was at the primary school because I love computers and I want to explore more skills by myself, so I just improve my typing by doing this.

✓ I improved my typing by typing my personal diaries into the computer when I was in primary school because I loved computers and wanted to learn more skills by myself, so I improved my typing that way.

The sentence mixes present and past tense; because the action happened in the past, use past simple ('improved', 'typed', 'loved', 'wanted'). Use 'personal diaries' or 'my diary' (lowercase) and 'into the computer' or 'on the computer.' Replace 'explore more skills' with 'learn more skills.' Remove filler 'uh' and avoid repeating the same clause; end with concise phrasing.
