Typing— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Keep your answer concise and natural. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Avoid unclear words (e.g. "I cried") and reduce hesitations and repeated fillers ("uh"). Use accurate grammar (e.g. "handwriting helps me remember words and phrases") and limit to up to 4 sentences.

Ví dụ: I prefer handwriting to typing because it helps me remember new words and phrases more effectively. For example, when I copy vocabulary by hand during lessons, I retain meanings longer and can review my notes more easily. Therefore, I often write new words in a notebook after class.

Gợi ý: Answer directly, use correct articles and smoother phrasing. Begin with a clear statement (e.g. "I don't type on a laptop every day"), then give concise reasons with linking words like "because" or "so". Remove repetition and small errors ("in my on on my laptop"). Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

Ví dụ: I don't type on a laptop every day, but I prefer using a laptop when I need to work away from home because it is portable. Also, typing on my laptop is faster, so I use it for study and preparation when I need to type long documents.

Gợi ý: Use the correct tense and give a clear time reference. Start with a topic sentence saying when you learned to type, then add one specific detail about how you learned. Avoid vague phrases like "high technique" and reduce fillers. Keep it to 2–3 sentences and use linking words like "because" or "so" for coherence.

Ví dụ: I learned to type when I was in primary school, around age eight. At school we had computer lessons where the teacher taught us basic typing skills, so I practised regularly on classroom computers.

Gợi ý: Give a clear, structured answer: start with a topic sentence about your main method, then list one or two specific practices using linking words (e.g. "first,", "second"). Avoid asking questions back to the examiner and correct phrasing ("I use a timer to measure my speed"). Keep within 3 sentences and provide concrete details (frequency, tools).

Ví dụ: I improve my typing mainly by regular practice on a keyboard. First, I practise for 20 minutes each day using online typing exercises; second, I time myself with a stopwatch to track my words-per-minute and focus on accuracy.

× I cried before handwriting because it's my traditional method to remember something and I usually, uh, use handwriting in my lesson so I can, uh, enhance my memory of the a word or sentence and also the phrase.

✓ I preferred handwriting before because it's my traditional method to remember something, and I usually use handwriting in my lessons so I can enhance my memory of a word, a sentence, or a phrase.

The student used 'cried' incorrectly; the intended meaning was past preference, so use 'preferred' (adjective/adverb misuse and word choice). Also 'lesson' should be plural 'lessons' for habitual action. Remove extra articles ('the a word') and use parallel items with commas. Suggestion: use 'prefer' for present habit or 'preferred' to indicate past preference; ensure nouns agree in number and avoid redundant articles.

× I don't usually type on laptop keyboard every day, but sometimes I would prefer laptop keyboard because it's quite portable and when I type in my on on my laptop it's quite fast and useful, so I would like to use it for my prep.

✓ I don't usually type on a laptop keyboard every day, but sometimes I prefer a laptop because it's quite portable, and when I type on my laptop it's quite fast and useful, so I like to use it for my preparation.

Missing articles ('a laptop keyboard') and incorrect repetition 'on on'. 'Would prefer' is not necessary; use 'prefer' for general preference. 'Prep' is informal; use 'preparation'. Ensure subject-verb agreement and proper article use. Suggestion: include 'a' before 'laptop keyboard', use 'on my laptop' not 'in', and avoid double words.

× I know how to type on a keyboard when I was in my primary school because, umm, there are many high technique like computers.

✓ I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was in primary school because there were many advanced technologies like computers.

Tense mismatch: 'I know' (present) with 'when I was' (past) should be 'I learned'. 'High technique' is incorrect collocation; use 'advanced technologies'. Also 'primary school' does not need 'my'. Suggestion: match past tense for past events and use correct nouns and adjectives.

× So we can uh, read a book and we need to write down our feeling on the keyboard.

✓ So we could read a book and we needed to write down our feelings on the keyboard.

Preposition 'on' is acceptable for keyboard but tense should match past narrative: use 'could' and 'needed'. Also 'feeling' should be plural 'feelings' to match general sense. Suggestion: keep consistent past forms and pluralize abstract nouns when referring generally.

× I have quite lots of method to improve my typing and firstly I usually practice it on a keyboard and secondly I have a timing so when I want to type I will start the timing to count.

✓ I have quite a lot of methods to improve my typing. First, I usually practice on a keyboard, and second, I use a timer so when I want to type I start the timer to count how fast I can type.

'Quite lots of' is incorrect; use 'quite a lot of' or 'many' with plural 'methods'. 'Firstly'/'secondly' OK but more natural: 'First'/'second'. 'Timing' is incorrect noun; use 'timer'. Also clarify the final clause by adding 'how fast I can type'. Suggestion: use correct quantifier 'a lot of' plus plural noun, and use 'timer' for measuring time.
