Writing takes place over time and language. It is the most popular method of creating some great masterpieces. This method requires to follow some stages as thinking, planning, drafting, and revising all the information you put down. It takes time to understand how to use all the stages properly and give birth to a beautiful piece of writing. That's why I believe that with the help of this course I'll learn how to do this, and more about the specific terminology used in writing. During it, I think I'll escape from such errors like false starts, contradictions, how much do I need to say about this, doubts about what idea is better, this word or that and if the audience will receive my message correctly. To cut long story short I'll become more confident that what I am writing is good.
This comment is from Anastasia Svetenco! She couldn't post it directly here. Some problems I believe.
RăspundețiȘtergereDear Alina, you have a lot of expectations for this course. I think that you wrote a coherent paragraph. Especially I like the way you explained which methods writing requires. I also enjoyed how you finished your paragraph, but in my opinion it is not so linked with the beginning, maybe you can add some additional words about writing. You have done a good job !!!
Dear Nastia, thank you for your warm words! Where to add some additional words about writing? At the end? Ok,I will. Thank you for this piece of advice.
ȘtergereAlina, I will take it step by step. It's not bad, but as you know it, there's always room for improvement!
RăspundețiȘtergere1) What is your TS? Remember it should be clearly stated at the beginning, whereas the SSs should develop it. Please also keep in mind that it should be neither too general nor too narrow. (Have a look at the PPT) You should also remember that you are not supposed to describe writing but to state your expectations.
2) The first sentence is rather unclear. In what way does writing take place over language? It's a bit metaphorical, you use some other metaphors as well in this small paragraph, such as: give birth to
3) Is writing a method?
4) You also use unnecessary pompous words (e.g. the use of superlative, the use of such words as: 'great masterpieces', 'beautiful piece...'
5) it is not clear what you meant by: 'That's why I believe that with the help of this course I'll learn how to do this, and more about the specific terminology used in writing.'
6) Remember you can't 'escape', maybe 'avoid'
7) 'During it, I think I'll escape from such errors like false starts, contradictions, how much do I need to say about this, doubts about what idea is better, this word or that and if the audience will receive my message correctly.' Such a long sentence, but what does it mean?
8) 'To cut A long story short ' is rather informal. I would also recommend to reformulate your concluding sentence
9) As a suggestion, I would like you to organize your SSs according to the order of importance (have a look at the PPT I have posted). Please keep in mind that they are supposed to develop the TS. In this way you'll achieve coherence.
10) Wishing you the best of luck!!!
