Typing— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler phrases (“you know”, “yeah”), and add one specific reason or example. Use a linking word when giving your reason.

Ví dụ: I prefer handwriting. For example, when I write notes by hand I focus better and remember information longer, so I often handwrite summaries after lectures.

Gợi ý: Open with a direct sentence, remove hesitation words, and use a clearer linking word to connect reasons. Be specific about how you use the laptop.

Ví dụ: I type on a laptop every day because it’s portable and convenient. For instance, I use it to take notes during lectures and to do assignments when I travel between home and campus.

Gợi ý: Begin with a direct answer and avoid repetition. Use one or two concise supporting details and a linking word like “because” or “so”.

Ví dụ: I learned to type in primary school because we had ICT classes. Those lessons taught me basic skills and gave me confidence to type quickly.

Gợi ý: Answer directly, remove filler phrases, and give a specific example of practice and a measurable outcome (speed or accuracy). Use a linking word to show cause and effect.

Ví dụ: I improve my typing by transcribing short online videos while watching them. This practice has helped me increase my speed and accuracy because it forces me to type quickly and correct mistakes immediately.

× Well, I prefer handwriting because you know that I am a traditional person.

✓ Well, I prefer handwriting because I am a traditional person.

The phrase 'you know that' is unnecessary and shifts perspective; it uses an informal conversational filler rather than a clear pronoun reference. Remove 'you know that' to make the sentence direct and grammatically correct. Suggestion: avoid unnecessary second-person fillers in formal answers.

× So I think handwriting can help me concentrate on the questions and the things I am writing.

✓ So I think handwriting helps me concentrate on the questions and on what I am writing.

Use of 'can help me concentrate' is acceptable but wordier; more natural is simple present 'helps' to express a habitual effect. Also 'the things I am writing' is awkward; 'on what I am writing' is clearer. Suggestion: use concise present-tense verbs for habitual actions and replace vague noun phrases with 'what' clauses.

× Well, I tap on laptop every day because it's convenient and portable to take with me, and I often take notes when listening to the lectures and finishing my studies while I am traveling.

✓ Well, I use a laptop every day because it's convenient and portable to take with me, and I often take notes while listening to lectures and doing my studies when I am traveling.

'Tap on laptop' is incorrect verb choice and missing article: use 'use a laptop' or 'type on a laptop'. 'The lectures' and 'finishing my studies' are unnatural here; use plural without 'the' for general activities and 'doing my studies' or 'studying' for clarity. Also change 'when listening to the lectures and finishing my studies while I am traveling' to avoid double 'while' and ensure parallel structure. Suggestion: choose correct verb ('use' or 'type on') and include the indefinite article 'a' for singular countable nouns.

× Well, I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was in primary school because our primary school offered the the computer and ICT classes for us to learn how to type on the keyboard and use the basic computer skills that made me become confident when typing.

✓ Well, I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was in primary school because the school offered computer and ICT classes to teach us typing and basic computer skills, which made me confident when typing.

Redundant 'the the' removed. Simplify and correct tense and clause structure: 'offered the computer and ICT classes for us to learn' is wordy and awkward; use 'offered computer and ICT classes to teach us' and use a relative clause 'which made me confident'. 'Made me become confident' is incorrect combination; use 'made me confident'. Suggestion: avoid redundancy, fix article use, and make relative clauses concise.

× Well, I improve my typing skills by picking up a short video online and type the notes while I am watching it.

✓ Well, I improve my typing skills by picking up a short video online and typing notes while I watch it.

When using 'by' + verb, the verb should be in -ing form ('typing'). Also verbs in the coordinated sequence should match form: 'picking up... and typing' rather than 'picking up... and type'. 'While I am watching it' is wordier than 'while I watch it'. Suggestion: use gerunds after 'by' and keep parallel verb forms.

× I think it is very good because it helps me to transcribe a spoken language quickly and I think it's convenient and effective.

✓ I think it is very useful because it helps me transcribe spoken language quickly, and it's convenient and effective.

'Very good' is vague; 'very useful' fits context. 'Transcribe a spoken language' is unnatural; use 'transcribe speech' or 'transcribe spoken language' without the article 'a'. Also remove redundant 'I think' and streamline the sentence. Suggestion: choose precise adjectives and avoid repetition for clarity.
