Answer 1

The only way to improve your writing is to write, edit, rewrite. I know it's a pain, but really it's the only way. If you give your writing to a native speaker and he or she corrects it, you MUST rewrite it. If not, you will do like I used to do with Japanese, say, "Oh yes, that's right." and continue to make the same mistakes.
Also there is no reason to think you have to write beautiful sentences, with flowing prose. Write simply: subject + verb + predicate. Keep it simple. As your skills develop, more complex sentence structure will come.
Read! Read English and you will develop an "ear" for what sounds right and what sounds wrong.
Yes, writing is difficult but to really use English effectively, it is a skill you need to master. Good luck!

Answer 2

I would say mainly just by reading and picking up good habits of grammar and word useage by doing so and when have to write something up I would use a Microsoft Word program

Answer 3

Try some basic sentences first and build your confidence, then move on to using more descriptive adjectives and using compound sentences. The key is to be confident with the basics and the rest will come to you.

Answer 4

I find that reading avidly boosts my understanding of grammar and spelling. There is no way around it...the more you read, the better your understanding of the English language.

Additionally there are books that focus on improving different aspects of writing. For example, this is one of my favorite books on punctuation:

"Eats, Shoots & Leaves"

Answer 5

The key to improving your writing skills is to read, read, read. Read quality authors and your brain will learn to mimic them. Try to notice interesting phrases and how they are punctuated. As you go, practice your writing skills and pay attention to your spelling.

Answer 8

Sorry I can't help.

But just want to let you know 'writting' has only one T instead of tt. So we write: 'writing"
But we write "written' with 2 T
