How to turn your dull writing style into an excellent one..

When I was a college student, I used to seek English coaching from a well known teacher of my city.. One day, he asked us to write a paragraph on the topic ' Religion and Art'. We acted accordingly and got it checked. At the end of that exercise a 10th class student approached the teacher with his paragraph.. The teacher checked it and then asked me,"Read it carefully and compare it with your writing style." His expression was idiomatic and it forced me read it again and again.. First, I felt jealousy cum shame as we usually do. Next day, I asked him how he acquired the art of writing excellent English. He guided me.. His instructions help me improve my English within a couple of months. So, I am going to share it with you..

Always keep a pocket size diary and a pencil with you.. Wherever you read an impressive phrase, pen it down and memorize. Hindi movies with English Subtitles are the valuable source of such phrases.

Here are some examples of impressive phrases
1: His hands are red in blood
2: Dereliction in duty
3: In broad daylight
4: cusp of opportunity
5: Drunk with power
6: at the mercy of
7: On the platter
8: Paint a rosy picture
9: In the line of duty
10: Our gallant soldiers laid down so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of our freedom etc

Exactly! Idiomatic phrases are like seasoning of the cuisine. One way to learn it is also by reading opinion section of mature english columnists such as Ayaz ameer, talat hussain and rafia zakaria. But if you are not good at it then go for simple writing. It is the safest strategy as i have seen candidates failing in essay despite having mphil english.

Idioms all the way!

subtitles are sometimes built in and you have to enable then in video player option/preferences (if they are not) otherwise you can download them from online subtitle sites and place subtitle and movies files in same folder with same names..thats all

I try it but nothing improve. Please suggest any other ?
