So this week, I have decided to write my free post about my poor writing skills. The thing that i am going to work on in these posts is my word choice. I tend to use too many words whenever I'm writing and it is a problem because it makes my writing sound unintelligent and that is damaging to the grades that i receive for the writing. I wish to improve on not only my word choice but also on the flow of my sentences. My sentences do not go together very well and i repeat information too often. Really i shouldn't be doing it at all. Those are the two qualities of my writing that i feel lack the most, and that i wish to improve on.
I do have a plan to remedy this situation. So over the summer and throughout the Fall, i participated in a SAT prep class that was offered to my by the school. During the class i received a binder with pages and pages full of vocabulary. I am going to try and learn a few of these words a week and that should really help out my word choice problem. It will help because my lack of vocabulary accounts for most of the word choice errors that i make. And the way to improve my sentence fluency is to just keep writing. All i have to do is just keep writing, writing anything, an it will improve.
