Tactics
- Practise plans and paragraphs on days with limited time.
- Delay revision of a full draft long enough to read it freshly.
- Alternate email and survey purposes.
- Keep a short personal error checklist beside new drafts.
Pitfalls
- Writing complete responses daily and never revising them.
- Using word count as the only sign of success.
- Changing language goals after every isolated error.
Use micro-writing between full responses
Actions
- Choose one content and one language goal.
- Schedule three micro-writing sessions before timed production.
- Reserve time to revise the complete response a day later.
Example
Lesson
