× I definitely prefer typing rather than handwriting.
✓ I definitely prefer typing to handwriting.
Use 'prefer A to B' not 'prefer A rather than B' when comparing choices. Replace 'rather than' with 'to' for correct collocation.
× I think typing is a convenient way to record your thought and, uh, your research.
✓ I think typing is a convenient way to record your thoughts and your research.
Use the plural 'thoughts' to refer to multiple ideas; keep pronoun 'your' consistent. Also 'research' is uncountable and stays as 'your research'.
× So in this way, I think typing is more convenient than handwriting.
✓ So, in this way, I think typing is more convenient than handwriting.
Add a comma after the introductory phrase 'So' for clarity. The sentence is otherwise correct.
× I use both and uh, normally I use laptop keyboard every day because it's more convenient and I like typing at cafe so laptop allows me to bring it at the coffee.
✓ I use both, and normally I use a laptop keyboard every day because it's more convenient and I like typing at a cafe, so a laptop allows me to bring it to the coffee shop.
Need indefinite article 'a' before 'laptop keyboard' and 'cafe'. Also add commas to separate clauses. Use 'bring it to the coffee shop' rather than 'bring it at the coffee' for correct preposition and noun choice.
× When I was a high school student, our school had computer teacher and he told us about how to type and apart from that we liked playing video games at that time so I think we just learned typing.
✓ When I was a high school student, our school had a computer teacher and he taught us how to type. Apart from that, we liked playing video games at that time, so I think we learned to type naturally.
Add article 'a' before 'computer teacher'. Use 'taught us how to type' instead of 'told us about how to type'. Split into two sentences for clarity. Use 'learned to type' (infinitive) or 'learned typing'—'learned to type' is more natural. Add commas and 'naturally' placement.
× Is has become a part of my life.
✓ It has become a part of my life.
Use the pronoun 'it' for the subject; 'Is' is wrong. 'It has become' is the correct subject-verb structure.
× Every things need to type on my laptop.
✓ Everything I need to do I type on my laptop.
Use 'everything' (one word) not 'every things'. Also rephrase to include a verb 'do' and place 'type on my laptop' appropriately. Alternatively: 'I type everything on my laptop.'
× For example, playing video games also need typing skill, so I think I improve my typing naturally.
✓ For example, playing video games also needs typing skills, so I think I improved my typing naturally.
Use singular/plural agreement: 'playing video games needs' (or 'also requires') and 'typing skills' (plural). Tense: describe past improvement with 'I improved' if referring to development over time; if describing current ongoing improvement, use 'I have improved' or 'I improve my typing naturally.' Adjust depending on intended meaning.
