WRITING TIPS FOR ADVANCED LEARNERS

 

Here are some tips to help you when handing in a writing or in an exam:

Read the rubrics very carefully and follow them strictly:

-  topic and/or subtopics

- type of writing (a letter, argumentative, opinion essay, etc.)

- formal or informal register

-  number of words

-  number of paragraphs

Devote a few minutes to plan your writing: 

- ideas to develop (1 idea, 1 paragraph)

-  (advanced) connectors

- vocabulary & grammar you want to include: Choose specific vocabulary, phrases and grammar to use (conditionals, cleft sentences, inversion, a variety of tenses, etc.)

Do the writing.

Proofread your writing:
