Personal Review
“The essence of writing is rewriting.”
Reading through IELTS sample essays does not suffice and can hardly help us improve our writing skills. To achieve the desired results, rewriting can be adopted.
It prompts us to look into the original sentence and make mentally taxing excercises to reproduce a parallel version with equivalent effect.
During the process, we take precautions to avoid pitfalls and strive to navigate through uncertainties and changes. We get extra cautious about word choices and linking devices.
It is only when the final products are served with satisfaction that we can finally rest at ease.
