Typing— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition (e.g., "I think" and "in my opinion" together), and give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Keep within 2–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: I prefer typing to handwriting because it’s faster and makes editing easy. For example, I can quickly correct mistakes and share documents online, which saves me time.

Gợi ý: Give a direct topic sentence and avoid redundant phrases. Use linking words to explain reasons succinctly and be specific about frequency or situations.

Ví dụ: I mainly use my laptop keyboard every day because it’s portable. For instance, I take it to university and cafés, whereas my desktop stays at home because it’s bulky.

Gợi ý: Answer directly with a clear time reference and reduce fillers (uh, umm). Use one or two concise supporting details about where or how you learned.

Ví dụ: I learned to type when I was in first grade during computer classes at school. Those lessons introduced me to the keyboard and basic typing practice.

Gợi ý: Start with a clear statement about your current practice, avoid tense inconsistency, and give specific methods you use to improve (e.g., online tests, timed practice, posture). Keep it concise and use linking words to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: I improve my typing by practicing daily with online typing tests and timed exercises. As a result, my speed increased; I also focus on correct finger placement and regular short practice sessions.

× I prefer typing because it takes less time to type than writing on paper and it is quicker to send messages during while typing.

✓ I prefer typing because it takes less time to type than writing on paper and it is quicker to send messages while typing.

The phrase 'during while typing' incorrectly combines two temporal expressions. Use either 'during' + noun phrase or 'while' + clause. 'While typing' is concise and appropriate here.

× So I think in my opinion it is better to type than writing.

✓ So I think it is better to type than write.

'In my opinion' and 'I think' are redundant; remove one. Also maintain parallel structure after 'than': use base verb 'write' to match 'to type' or rephrase to 'to write'. Here 'to type than write' is correct.

× I mainly use my laptop keyboard then a desktop because I think carrying laptop is easier for me than carrying my desktop because it is so heavy and I can't take it with me anywhere, every, anytime.

✓ I mainly use my laptop keyboard rather than a desktop because carrying the laptop is easier for me than carrying my desktop, which is very heavy and I can't take it with me anywhere.

'Then' is incorrect for comparison; use 'rather than'. Add articles: 'carrying laptop' -> 'carrying the laptop'. Punctuation and extra words 'every, anytime' are unnecessary and ungrammatical; replace with 'anywhere'. Use 'which is very heavy' to link reason.

× I have learned uh, typing on a keyboard during my academic session.

✓ I learned typing on a keyboard during my school years.

The original mixes present perfect with a finished past time ('during my academic session'), so simple past 'learned' is preferred. Also 'academic session' is awkward; 'school years' or 'primary school' fits better.

× Uh, when I was in grade one, there was umm, there was computer classes and I have joined them.

✓ When I was in grade one, there were computer classes and I joined them.

Use plural agreement 'there were computer classes' (singular/plural) and keep past tense consistent: 'I joined', not present perfect 'I have joined', because the time is specified in the past.

× During those classes I learnt about typing.

✓ During those classes I learned how to type.

'Learnt' is acceptable in British English, but 'learned how to type' is clearer and matches the action. Maintain past tense consistent with the time frame.

× I have practiced many times to improve my typing as I am a slow typer so my friends often complain about my slow typing.

✓ I practiced many times to improve my typing because I was a slow typist, so my friends often complained about my slow typing.

The sentence mixes present perfect with present and past contexts. If referring to past efforts, use simple past 'practiced' and 'complained'. Also use 'typist' as the noun form and avoid repeating 'slow' twice; keep consistent tense.

× I had attended many sessions of typing, then I learned to type fast.

✓ I attended many typing sessions, and then I learned to type faster.

Past perfect 'had attended' is unnecessary when the sequence is clear; simple past 'attended' is appropriate. Use comparative 'faster' to describe improvement in typing speed.
