× Personally, I prefer typing to handwriting because it is more convenient and faster.
✓ Personally, I prefer typing to handwriting because it is more convenient and faster.
No grammatical error according to the provided list; sentence is correct. (Included for completeness.)
× I use my computer every day for work and studies.
✓ I use my computer every day for work and study.
'Studies' as a plural noun is acceptable in some contexts but 'study' (uncountable) is more natural after 'work and'. Change to 'study' to parallel 'work' and sound more idiomatic. Suggestion: use 'study' when referring to academic activity in general.
× Umm.
This is a filler, not a sentence; no grammatical correction needed. Suggest avoiding fillers in spoken answers.
× Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
✓ Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Question is correct; use of 'do' is appropriate for second person. No change required.
× Yes, I use my laptop keyboard every single day, mainly for studies and work.
✓ Yes, I use my laptop keyboard every single day, mainly for study and work.
Same issue as before: 'studies' can be replaced with 'study' to match 'work' and sound more natural. Use parallel nouns.
× Most of my assignments and tasks are done on my computer.
✓ Most of my assignments and tasks are done on my computer.
This sentence is grammatically correct; no change required.
× It is really.
✓ It really is.
Sentence fragment 'It is really.' is awkward. Correct word order for emphasis is 'It really is.' or better: 'It is really convenient.' Provide the adjective for clarity.
× I learned how to type on a keyboard about 10 years ago at high school.
✓ I learned how to type on a keyboard about ten years ago in high school.
Use 'in high school' rather than 'at high school' in conversational American/British English; write out 'ten' optionally. Past tense 'learned' is correct. Suggest: 'in high school' is the standard prepositional choice.
× Uh, it was, uh, very convenient and fast.
✓ It was very convenient and fast.
Remove filler words 'uh' which are not part of grammatical content. Sentence otherwise correct.
× There was also a.
✓ There was also a benefit.
Original is a fragment. Complete the sentence by adding a noun or clause. Example: 'There was also a benefit' or 'There was also a teacher who helped me.' Ensure 'there was' is followed by a noun phrase.
× I improve my typing speed by practicing everyday on message apps such as QQ and WeChat.
✓ I improve my typing speed by practicing every day on messaging apps such as QQ and WeChat.
Two issues: 'everyday' (adjective meaning ordinary) should be 'every day' (adverbial phrase). Also 'message apps' is better as 'messaging apps.' Both corrections follow usage rules.
× This helps me memorize the key positions and increase both my speed and accuracy.
✓ This helps me memorize the key positions and increase both my speed and my accuracy.
Parallel structure: after 'helps me' the verbs should be parallel in form. 'Memorize' and 'increase' are fine, but adding 'my' before 'accuracy' improves clarity and parallelism. Alternatively: 'This helps me memorize the key positions and to increase both my speed and accuracy.'
