Hi there, this is my first post at this message board and my first step to improve my english.
I think so far i'm able to express myself well. I did the TOEFL test some weeks ago and scored over 100 points which reassuerd me about my english skills.
However i want to improve my language especially my writing skills. I would like to get on an academic level of both reading and writing texts.
My idea was to read academic texts (any idea where to find those?) and
write text analysis and/or comments on those. I would like to post my texts here for you to correct them in the "ask a teacher" or "text analysis" forum.
But firstly i'ld like to collect some useful phrases and vocabulary which i can use in my texts.
Maybe i describe whatfor i need to imürove so it is easier for you to answer. I'm currently a student at school heading for my final examniations in about one month. The english examn is quite important for me. Afterwards i want to study something international wherefor english is absolutly essential.
Do you have or know where to find lists of useful phareses and academic vocabularys esp. focussing on text analysis/literature?
I found a lot of sentence connectors stuff but didnt succeed with those sentences.
I'm also searching for an author who writes in a very elaborate, sophisticated language to copy some pharases and sentences for him. Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance . . .
