Many of us have different goals as to why we'd like to write better:
- Some of us want to achieve better grades in written exams
- Some of us would like to write effectively at work to convey a clear message to their team
- The rest of us hope to write creatively so we can post our writing on a blog or onto social media platforms - Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat etc.
- Many of us write for the fun of it to express what we feel onto paper
So how can we become better writers?
Start somewhere. This could begin with a simple journal. Then move onto writing longer essays.
Challenge yourself to different forms of writing such as with writing reports, emails, journals or essays.
Vary your use of vocabulary and play around with the use of different phrases and idioms. You never know until you try. And don't be afraid to make mistake - mistakes help you to become better writers!
