The most important trick to improving your English language usage in your thesis, essay or research paper is to write as you speak.

The more direct and natural you make your writing, the easier it will be for your readers to understand what you are trying to say.

Here is an example:

Original textWhile he was trying to save some money, the boy took the opportunity to attempt to walk to the shop to get some exercise.

Better version: The boy walked to the shop to get some exercise, save some money and buy groceries.

The meaning is the same, but it’s easier to say and understand.

The best writing creates pictures in the reader’s mind.

Try to write your thesis or essay in such a way that anyone can understand it.

Shakespeare’s plays were written to entertain common people. That is why his plays are still performed in many different languages, all over the world today. He used normal straightforward language that a gravedigger, a farmer or a labourer could understand.
