Anyone mark on screen with a MS Surface Go?

Colleagues use a stylus with their ipads and 'write' on kids work rather than having to type feedback.
Anyone have a MS tablet and do the same?
Any recommendations on stylus? Do I really need a MS one or can a generic one do a good job?
Help please :)

I do, I have done it since September. My husband has an iPad and an apple pen but the surface pro is much quicker and accurate.

@NowTheDucksAreBarking
What programs do you do it in and what stylus?
I've just been reading up - looks like it wont work in Teams assignments submitted as pdf/photo. They could paste photo into word and submit which would (?) work.
Onenote?
I do like the simplicity of work set through assignments.
Any tips would be gratefully received!!!

I use a surface stylus, i have used it on submitted photos and it worked fine. Now I use it mostly to live Mark, annotated powerpoints, ms whiteboard etc. I have found it recreates the real life classroom really well and integrates into teams perfectly. I teach secondary though, so are getting most of my work submitted by ms forms now.

Thanks - secondary too, but mostly getting work via assignments on teams.
Might have to go back to forms then!
