× I prefer typing to handwriting because type text is more legible and easy to edit which save time.
✓ I prefer typing to handwriting because typed text is more legible and easy to edit, which saves time.
The sentence contains adjective/adverb form errors and subject-verb agreement. 'type text' should be the past participle adjective 'typed text' (adjective use), and the relative clause subject 'which' refers to 'editing' or the whole idea, requiring the verb 'saves' to agree with singular idea. Also add a comma before 'which.' Suggestion: use 'typed text' and 'saves' for correct forms and agreement.
× For example, when I write reports or emails, umm I can quickly rearrange P paragraph and correct mistake.
✓ For example, when I write reports or emails, I can quickly rearrange paragraphs and correct mistakes.
This sentence has structure and number issues. 'P paragraph' is unclear and likely meant 'paragraph' in plural; also 'mistake' should be plural 'mistakes' to match general meaning. Remove filler 'umm' in formal response. Suggestion: use plural nouns for general actions: 'paragraphs' and 'mistakes.'
× I usually type on a laptop because I don't have a desktop in my house so my laptop is more convenient and portable since I work in different places like cafe or sugar study spaces.
✓ I usually type on a laptop because I don't have a desktop at home, so my laptop is more convenient and portable since I work in different places like cafes or shared study spaces.
Multiple issues: preposition and article use. 'in my house' is acceptable but 'at home' is more natural; 'like cafe' needs plural 'cafes' and article 'a cafe' if singular; 'sugar study spaces' is incorrect — likely 'shared study spaces.' Also add a comma before 'so.' Suggestion: use 'at home', pluralize 'cafes', and correct 'shared study spaces.'
× I think I learned to type on the keyboard when I was in 6th grade.
✓ I think I learned to type on the keyboard when I was in sixth grade.
Number expression: use 'sixth' (ordinal word) in writing instead of digit with 'th' attached. This is not a tense error but a style/number format; still keep past tense 'learned' which is correct. Suggestion: write 'sixth grade' in words for correctness and formality.
× At the time we began using Facebook to message friends and post updates, so I practiced my typing everyday when chatting with classmates.
✓ At the time we began using Facebook to message friends and post updates, so I practiced my typing every day when chatting with classmates.
Word usage: 'everyday' (adjective meaning ordinary) is incorrect here; the adverbial phrase 'every day' is required. Tense usage 'began' and 'practiced' are correct. Suggestion: use 'every day' as two words for frequency.
× Actually I don't practice formally. By chatting with friends online has helped me improve.
✓ Actually, I don't practice formally. Chatting with friends online has helped me improve.
Sentence structure and article/pronoun issues: 'By chatting with friends online has helped me improve' is ungrammatical. Remove 'By' to make 'Chatting with friends online' the subject (gerund phrase). Also add a comma after 'Actually.' Suggestion: use gerund phrase as subject without leading 'By.'
× Doing it everyday may my made me more familiar with the keyboard so I type faster and make fewer mistakes.
✓ Doing it every day may have made me more familiar with the keyboard, so I type faster and make fewer mistakes.
Multiple errors: 'everyday' should be 'every day' (adverbial phrase). 'may my made me' is incorrect — correct modal perfect is 'may have made me.' Add comma before 'so.' Suggestion: use 'may have made' to express possibility about past effect and 'every day' as two words.
