How to make English writing flow

#Englishwriting #learnenglish

In this video, we look at what it means to have writing that ‘flows’, or writing that has good readability, and how to achieve this.

We discuss the following points, and then look at a sample essay with and without ‘flow’.

What is flow in writing? The reader’s ability to move smoothly through a text from beginning to end.

✨A reader should NOT:
have to stop to reread or go back to recheck something
struggle to find connections between ideas or have to fill in the blanks
have questions about your arguments/ideas
be exhausted by the effort
be bored

🏆How to achieve flow:
Clear syntax and effective sentence structures
Focused paragraphs (alignment of ideas, topic sentences, closings)—coherence
Clear & logical connections between ideas, sentences, and paragraphs—cohesion
Signifiers (transitions and linking terms, conjunctions, pronouns)
Maintain progression, avoid digression
Avoid wordiness, repetition, redundancy, the irrelevant and the obvious
Variety (words, structures, sentence lengths, approaches, tone, pace, etc.)
Plan before
Edit and rewrite after
