× With the advance of bad technology, I, uh, have a tendency to, uh, tie instead of handwriting because, uh, it's helped me a lot, uh, to, uh, I think that is look very cool and handwriting is, uh, spelled very slow.
✓ With the advance of technology, I tend to type instead of handwriting because it has helped me a lot; I think typing looks very cool and handwriting is very slow.
The sentence contains multiple issues: wrong word choice ('bad technology' -> 'technology'; 'tie' -> 'type'; 'spelled very slow' -> 'is very slow'), awkward phrasing and redundant fillers. Use present simple for habitual tendency ('I tend to type') and present perfect to show past action with present relevance ('it has helped me a lot'). Remove fillers and combine clauses with correct punctuation to improve clarity. Suggestions: learn correct verb forms, avoid filler words, and use simple, clear sentence structure. Note: I corrected grammar and word choice while preserving the intended meaning.
× Or I, I have a laptop and I find it's the more quickly, uh, and I think that is, is very, it's helped me a lot in learning and I find it's more efficiency, uh, efficient lead in a standard handwriting and it's helped me a lot in.
✓ I have a laptop and I find it is quicker, and it has helped me a lot with learning; I find it more efficient than standard handwriting and it has helped me a lot.
Errors include incorrect comparative form ('the more quickly' -> 'quicker' or 'more quickly' depending on structure), incorrect noun/adjective use ('more efficiency, efficient lead' -> 'more efficient than'), and incomplete sentence ending. Use 'it is quicker' or 'it works more quickly' for comparisons, and 'more efficient than' to compare two methods. Use present perfect ('it has helped me') for effects continuing to the present. Suggestions: use correct comparative forms and ensure sentences are complete.
× To be honest, if you know alphabet so you can tie it and I think that it is a lot naturally instead of for to learn and it's helped me to practice learning or maybe learning a lot something.
✓ To be honest, if you know the alphabet, you can type, and I think it is much more natural than learning to write; it has helped me practice and learn a lot.
Problems: missing article ('the alphabet'), wrong verb ('tie' -> 'type'), awkward connectors ('so' and 'for to learn'), and unclear phrasing. Use conditional structure concisely ('if you know the alphabet, you can type') and comparative phrasing ('much more natural than learning to write'). Use present perfect ('it has helped me') to indicate ongoing effect. Suggestions: add necessary articles, use correct verbs, and simplify connective phrases.
× As I mentioned before, I am a already knew the alphabet and it is easy to pick up and I got better with online exercise and practice and I don't need to learn very hard and I only practice every day.
✓ As I mentioned before, I already knew the alphabet, and it was easy to pick up; I got better with online exercises and practice, and I didn't need to study very hard. I practice every day.
Errors include mixed tenses and incorrect auxiliary use ('I am a already knew' -> 'I already knew'), inconsistent tense sequence (mixing present and past without reason). Use past simple for completed actions ('I already knew', 'I got better', 'I didn't need to study') and present simple for habitual actions ('I practice every day'). Also change 'exercise' to plural 'exercises' and 'learn very hard' to 'study very hard'. Suggestions: keep tense consistent—use past tense for past events and present simple for routines.
