Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Điểm: 52.0Gợi ý: Make your response clearer and grammatically correct. Start with a direct topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Avoid redundancy and keep it under five sentences. Focus on natural phrasing and correct verb forms (e.g., “I find typing difficult” not “it's really struggle”).
Ví dụ: I prefer handwriting. Because I think by hand I write more freely and can organize my thoughts better, I feel less rushed. For example, when I brainstorm or take notes in class, handwriting helps me remember ideas more clearly.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Điểm: 45.0Gợi ý: Answer directly and coherently. Begin with a clear statement (desktop or laptop), then briefly explain why using one more often, using linking words like “because” or “so.” Fix incomplete sentences and avoid vague fragments.
Ví dụ: I usually use my laptop keyboard every day because I take it to class and cafés. When I use a desktop computer at home, I find it less convenient, so I prefer the laptop for portability.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Điểm: 50.0Gợi ý: Give a concise, grammatically correct answer with one supporting detail. Use a clear time marker and link the reason or context. Avoid odd phrases like “license staff” — replace with “qualified instructor” or “teacher.”
Ví dụ: I learned to type when I was eight, after I started elementary school. At that time we had a computing class with a qualified teacher who taught us basic typing skills.
How do you improve your typing?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: Structure the answer: state how you improve, then give a specific example. Use correct tense and linking words like “because” or “so.” Be specific about the methods (games, practice, lessons) and results.

× When I type on the keyboard it's sometimes really struggle to get a rush, but when I do with my handwriting it can be more easier to do with.
✓ When I type on the keyboard it is sometimes really hard to get a flow, but when I use handwriting it is easier to do.
The student used 'really struggle' (a verb) where an adjective is needed to describe the situation and 'more easier' is a redundant comparative ('easier' alone is correct). Also 'do with' is unnecessary. Replace 'really struggle to get a rush' with 'really hard to get a flow' for natural English. Suggestion: use appropriate adjective forms (hard, easy, easier) and avoid doubling comparative words like 'more easier'.
× I usually do it my laptop computer.
✓ I usually use my laptop computer.
The sentence uses 'do it' incorrectly; 'use' is the correct verb for operating a computer and the pronoun/object placement is wrong. Suggestion: use the verb that matches the action (use) and place the object after it (use my laptop computer).
× I'm actually when I use the desktop computer, it's really.
✓ Actually, when I use the desktop computer, it is difficult for me.
This fragmentary sentence lacks a clear main clause and ends abruptly with 'it's really.' Reordering and supplying the missing adjective (difficult) fixes the structure. Suggestion: ensure each sentence has a subject and a complete predicate and avoid leaving clauses unfinished.
× It's hard to do it when I go outside.
✓ It is hard for me to do that when I am outside.
The original uses vague pronouns 'it' and 'do it' without clear referents. Replacing with 'for me' clarifies the experiencer and 'do that' clarifies the action. Suggestion: make pronoun references explicit to avoid ambiguity.
× When I was 8 years old which I got into the elementary school, we had a class about the computing and I have to study with a license staff.
✓ When I was eight years old and entered elementary school, we had a class about computing and I had to study with licensed staff.
Tense consistency: use simple past 'entered' to match 'was' and 'had.' 'Which I got into' is incorrect relative clause use; use 'and entered.' 'Computing' does not need 'the.' 'Have to study' should be past 'had to study.' 'License staff' is incorrect; use 'licensed staff.' Suggestion: keep past-time verbs consistent and use correct adjective forms (licensed) and noun phrases.
× We have a typing game when I had a computer class and when the score is really high, teacher always give a small gifts where the students, so I really practice hard.
✓ We had a typing game in my computer class, and when the score was really high the teacher always gave small gifts to the students, so I practiced hard.
Preposition and tense issues: use 'in' for classes ('in my computer class'), past tense 'had' and 'was' to match time frame, 'gave' for past, and 'to the students' is correct preposition. Also correct article/number agreement ('small gifts' not 'a small gifts') and verb agreement ('teacher always gave'). Suggestion: match prepositions to common collocations (in class, give to someone) and ensure tense consistency and subject-verb agreement.
