Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers (uh), correct grammar (e.g. "I prefer typing"), and give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Limit to 2–4 sentences.

例: I prefer typing to handwriting because digital text is easy to store and search. For example, I can quickly copy, edit, and share documents, which saves time and keeps my work organized.

提案: Make the response smoother and more grammatical: give a direct topic sentence, then a brief explanation with linking words. Avoid repetition ("so" twice) and keep sentences natural.

例: Yes, I type every day on a laptop because I work as a software engineer and write code. To be more efficient, I customize my editor and keyboard shortcuts so I can work faster.

提案: Be concise and logically ordered: give a clear time reference, then explain improvement with linking words. Remove fillers and avoid repeating"after" twice.

例: I began learning to type in high school, but I significantly improved my speed and accuracy after university when I started working as a software engineer.

提案: Clarify and correct grammar, give specific details about the method and progress, and avoid broken sentences. Use linking words to show result or frequency.

例: I improved my typing by using online training sites that give timed exercises and track accuracy. As a result, I practiced for 20 minutes a day and gradually increased my speed and reduced errors.

× I like better typing because the characters are typed or stored, uh, in some devices and those information can be available and, uh, access accessible and copyable so they have a value.

✓ I prefer typing because the characters are typed or stored in some devices and that information can be accessed and copied, so it has value.

The original uses incorrect pronoun/plural agreement: 'those information' is wrong because 'information' is uncountable and takes singular reference 'that information'. Also 'access accessible' is redundant and incorrect; the correct verb form is 'accessed'. 'I like better typing' is unnatural; use 'I prefer typing'. Ensure pronouns agree with uncountable nouns and avoid redundant words. Suggestions: use 'that information' for uncountable 'information', change 'access accessible and copyable' to 'accessed and copied', and replace 'I like better typing' with 'I prefer typing'.

× Yes I do because I'm a software engineer so one of my task is to code.

✓ Yes, I do because I'm a software engineer, so one of my tasks is to code.

The subject 'one' requires the predicate 'of my tasks' with plural 'tasks' to indicate one item of a plural set, and the possessive phrase should use plural 'tasks' with 'one of'. The verb 'is' is correct for 'one', but 'task' must be 'tasks' in the phrase 'one of my tasks'. Also add missing commas for clarity. Suggestion: use 'one of my tasks is to code.'

× So yeah, I use laptop keyboard every day.

✓ So yeah, I use a laptop keyboard every day.

Countable singular nouns generally need an article. 'Laptop keyboard' is singular and countable; use the indefinite article 'a'. Alternatively, use the plural 'laptop keyboards' if speaking generally. Suggestion: add 'a' before 'laptop keyboard.'

× When I was a high school student, I started to type on keyboard, uh, but basically I have improved my typing skills, uh, after I became a software engineer after graduating from university.

✓ When I was a high school student, I started to type on a keyboard, but I mainly improved my typing skills after I became a software engineer, after graduating from university.

Tense and article issues: 'type on keyboard' needs article 'a keyboard'. The sequence of events is best expressed with simple past: 'I started' and 'I improved' after 'I became' — using present perfect 'have improved' is less appropriate because the speaker refers to a past period after graduating. Also redundancy 'after I became... after graduating' is awkward; keep both if needed but clarify order. Suggestion: use simple past 'I improved' and add 'a' before 'keyboard.'

× To improve my typing skills, I used a training site for typing and it requires me to type some words in a limited time and we. We batter the performance.

✓ To improve my typing skills, I used a typing training site that required me to type words within a limited time so that I could improve my performance.

Mixed tense and incomplete sentence: 'I used' is past, but 'it requires me' is present — use past 'required' to match. 'We. We batter the performance.' is ungrammatical and unclear; likely intended 'I bettered my performance' or 'it helped improve my performance.' 'Batter' is incorrect. Also 'for typing' is redundant; 'typing training site' is clearer. Suggestion: use past tense consistently and replace 'batter' with 'better' or 'improve' and combine fragments into one coherent sentence.
