Tips On Writing
1. Read well the title and instructions on the task. Respect the limit! (250 words)
2. Use the empty pages for making notes, structure scheme, counting words…
3. Attention to the type of text (formal letter, formal essay, formal article). Avoid contractions
or genitive (instead use “of”). Separate paragraphs well.
4. Use singular/plurals correctly (Being a good doctor IS positive – The main problems in
Poland ARE…)
*The: for geographical or specific things (The Sun, The people in Kraków)
Honest (adjective) – honesty (noun) – Honestly (adverb). Usually the endings help.
8. Connect your sentences and paragraphs well, but use them ONLY WITH A REASON. Do not
abuse.
Opinion connectors: frankly, in my humble opinion, from the (…) point of view…
*If unsure about which connector to use, better write separate sentences.
Mixing present, past and future (all of them can be simple, continuous, perfect…)
10. Include different structures:
-Conditionals
*When possible, better use the long adjective instead of the short (fortunate/lucky).
