We can put it this way, I want you to do it/ It's better that you do it.

this sounds like a foreign speaker (such as spanish) directly translating what is correct grammar for them into english. quiero que tu vayas a la tienda - correct in spanish, but translated literally into english it says " i want that you go to the store" while we say "i want you to go to the store."
