Typing— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Give a complete, natural response: start with a direct topic sentence, then add one specific supporting reason and an example. Avoid incomplete phrases like "and more." Keep it to 2–3 sentences and use linking words for coherence.

Exemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting because it is much faster and more convenient. For example, when I take notes during lectures I can type quickly and organize them into folders on my laptop, which makes reviewing much easier.

Sugestão: Expand the short yes/no reply with a topic sentence that answers which device you use, then add one supporting detail or reason. Use a linking word to connect ideas and keep it to 1–2 extra sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, absolutely — I type on my laptop keyboard every day because I work and study from home. As a result, I usually carry my laptop everywhere so I can type emails and assignments on the go.

Sugestão: Correct grammar and finish the sentence: use past tense for a past event, give the full context (where or what class), and add a brief detail about what you learned. Keep it to 2 sentences max.

Exemplo: I learned to type on a keyboard when I was about ten years old during a computer class at school. In that class we practiced touch-typing and learning proper finger placement, which helped me increase my speed.

Sugestão: Avoid saying you don't know. Offer at least one method you use or plan to use to improve typing, with a brief reason or example. Keep to 2–3 sentences and use linking words for clarity.

Exemplo: I improve my typing by practicing on online typing programs and doing timed tests to increase my speed and accuracy. Additionally, I try to maintain correct posture and finger placement so I make fewer mistakes.

× I prefer typing to handwriting because it's faster and more.

✓ I prefer typing to handwriting because it's faster and more convenient.

The original sentence ends with 'more' which is incomplete; 'more' needs an adjective or adverb to compare (e.g., 'more convenient'). The error falls under incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs because the comparative idea is not expressed correctly. Suggestion: add an appropriate adjective or complete the comparative phrase, for example 'faster and more convenient' or 'faster and more efficient.'

× Yes, absolutely.

✓ Yes, I do — absolutely.

Answering 'Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?' with a bare 'Yes, absolutely.' is acceptable conversationally but lacks clarity. This is a sentence structure issue because the response should explicitly confirm the action using an auxiliary verb for full grammatical form: 'Yes, I do.' Add 'absolutely' for emphasis. Suggestion: use 'Yes, I do — absolutely' or 'Yes, I type every day.'

× I learn to type on keyboard when I was about 10 years old during a computer class at.

✓ I learned to type on a keyboard when I was about 10 years old during a computer class at school.

The sentence mixes present tense 'I learn' with past time marker 'when I was about 10 years old.' This is a tense error: use past tense 'learned' to match the time reference. Also missing article 'a' before 'keyboard' and incomplete phrase 'at' requires the place 'school.' Suggestions: use past tense 'learned,' include the article 'a keyboard,' and complete the location: 'during a computer class at school.'

× I don't know.

✓ I don't know how to improve my typing, or I usually practice with online exercises to improve my typing.

Replying 'I don't know.' to 'How do you improve your typing?' is grammatically correct but unhelpful. This is a sentence structure/use issue: give a full answer matching the question. Suggestions: provide a method using present simple (habitual): 'I practice with online exercises' or 'I take typing lessons' or if unsure, 'I'm not sure, but I usually practice with online exercises.'
