How to write clearly !

Hi,

Today, I'm posting some tips for you. I think that it'll be useful for everyone to learn more about writting and to start to have a good communication in english.

I found this article in the net , so I did a summarized for you

Let's start!!!!

1-Keep your descriptions short and simple. Keep your writing short and to the point.
2-Use words that the reader is familiar with. Don't use words that the reader might find difficult to understand.
3 -Keep your sentences simple and clear. Don't use to many complicated sentences.
4- Don't make all the sentences the same length. It is a good idea to vary the length of the sentences. Make some sentences longer, while keeping some sentences shorter.
5- It is better to use the active tense, than the passive tense.
6- Don't use abbreviations unless you are sure that the reader will understand.
7- It is better to use nouns and verbs, instead of adjectives and adverbs.


Writing doesn't have to be hard! Think about it! =)

Let's participate!!!

Hiiiii... I'm back!!!

I would like to propose you a poll or a discussion about writting!

Well, I think that writting is so good for us, english students. In the beginning writing was just some boring exercise however it’s become a exciting exercise ,because I realized that my fluency was improving and when you are writting, you can express a lot of things as you said ( ways of thinking, feelings... ) .

If you agree with me or not, write a coment about "what do you think about writting?"

I would be appreciate if you could leave your opinion in my blog.

News!!!

Hi fellows,
I think you should remember that in the Bia's last class , she says about we join in the British Council's page to do some exercises in the portfolio....Did you???
So , I joined there yesterday and I found a cool Forum that a lot of people talk about the English Teacher 's work and their experiences teaching english.
I started to talk with Chris yesterday, she looks like so sympathic , nice and she told me about her teaching english experiences and what is her job now.
I was so glad to can talk with other english teacher from all the parts of Brazil ,because I can improve my english and grow my vocabulary list.
So, I think that kind of exchanging information could be interesting and useful for all of you, students and future english teachers.
I hope you can take advantage of it !!!!
