Why do I make so many mistakes when I type?

When I type my research paper, my teacher complains about how there are grammatical mistakes in almost every sentence, and he does not understand because the essays I write during exams or test conditions are in perfect english. And I found this very strange. I mean, I didn't check both but why is it so different?

Is it due to the fact that I typed the paper or maybe because I am writing about a subject that I don't usually write about? I don't get it.

    I find this happens to me when Im writing a paper at home. I think it's because I take breaks between thoughts since Im not rushing like during a test/exam and I also get distracted easily. So when I continue the sentence I write in a different tense and stuff so I would make sure to proofread before printing it.

    If the teacher still says that you have grammatical errors, ask her for help!
