    It's ironic that in spoken English we use long sentences to sound smart, but in written English we achieve that result with short sentences.

    So HELPFUL OMG
    Tips for writing:
    1. Avoid contractions
    2. Avoid there is/there are (sentence become stronger to the point)
    3.Avoid really, very, a lot, so (weakens writing)
    Use “many” or “much”
    ex:Much of the time is wasted
    4. Have subject, verb, object
    5.Use strong verbs
    When you see verb and noun (try to use verb)
    Example 1 : he gave assistance -> He assisted
    Ex 2: made an objection -> He objected
    (Does the noun have verb form?)

      In my experience teachers are sadist f*cks that don't get along with students (even if you think you do, they experts in faking a smile).
      None of them is consistent so you need to learn each one as like a new cat.
      Always listen to others who had a previous teacher and their warnings. Teachers don't change, YOU change.

Unless the University is the name of the university but i doubt that, hopefully.

    2. Avoid using *there is/there are*
    3. Avoid using *alot, really, very, so*
    4. Instead of using *passive voice* use *action voice*
    ➡️subject, verb then the object
    5. Use *strong verbs*

    Great tips! I also say avoid using phrasal verbs. For example: give up = forfeit; go down = decrease; do over = repeat.
    This usually improves formality. It also helps shorten sentences, like your tips #2, #4 and #5. Simplicity is key :)

    Mark's about to be attacked by a great white. Jack tries throw a rock at the great whites nose to avoid Mark, but failed. Jack tries it second time and hits the great whites nose, but there's a strange difference. The great white does not quit. "Jack!" Mark shouted. "Grab the harpoon! It's right behind you!" Jack takes the harpoon with a grunt. "Throw it to the great white!" He shouted. "I can't!" Jack replied. "Why not?"Mark asked. "It's too heavy!" Jack replied. "Just throw it Jack!" Mark screamed. "This great white is about to shred my life!" Jack throws the harpoon with all of his power. The harpoon did not hit the great whites nose, but it's eye. The great white swam away with blood trails in the sea. Mark swam to the shore safely. "Are you ok Mark? Ow," Jack asked in pain. "Yeah I'm ok," Mark replied. "My arm is sore," said Jack. "Well. It was worth to save a friends life," said Mark. "Yeah,"Jack replied.

    • @doraemonandchibi
      @doraemonandchibi 8 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      There are some quibbles:
      First of all, your sentences are a teeny bit jittery, they don't have a a constant flow. Try writing sentences of various lengths with a greater use of punctuation ( a coma, dash, semicolon, a pause etc.)
      "Jack tries throw a rock at the great whites nose to avoid Mark, but failed"
      Okay..um, what do you mean by "avoid"? Also, since you are narrating the incident in real-time, use present tense
      Rephrasing the sentence, a better way to write this would be: "Jack hurls a rock at the Great White's nose to free Mark from it's clutches, but fails in the process"
      Always shift the paragraph when you use a new line of dialogue, I can almost see my English teacher pulling her hair out in agony xD
      And keep in mind that rich words are essential to a good writing. Instead of using "Throw", use "Hurled"
      Likewise, use "Moaned" instead of "Asked" and so on. (Though this might depend on the context)
      ------
      All in all, it's good, you'll get there. You have the potential
      3.5/5

      I may not be the best at writing, but I'll give you my opinion on your writing skill:
      I like it, but it's a bit on the choppy side. It is nice, but not the best. Please don't get upset if I'm being too blunt. Afterall, you did ask for criticism.

      Following up on my prior comment: I passed all of the exams and now in college pursuing my dream of having an Associate's Degree. All is well so far. Those three months of taking the HiSet course was the start of an unlimited amount of positive opportunities for me and my family. If there is anyone who's considering going back to school, my advice is, do it. It's not impossible. My highest grade was 6, I dropped out during the 7th. 20 years later, I graduated on the very first attempt and i have to say, I regret not doing it 10 years ago.
      Thanks for the wonderful tips.

    At 5:40 you use 'many' instead of 'a lot' but neither sounds very academic to me as they do not involve any actual quantities. If one was to write an essay wouldn't it be better to at least narrow it down to an estimate? For example: 'More than half of all students live on campus', supported by some sort of source? Same with words like 'some', 'few', 'plenty', their meaning is up for interpretation.
