Idiomatic/Expressive Language to impress them:
Instead of spending a lot of money, we SPLASH OUT!
Rather than tolerating something annoying, we.... PUT UP WITH it.
We aren't just happy --> we're over the moon!
Linking devices to make them say wow:
When we want to tell the examiner additional information, we don't say furthermore! NO!- We say on top of that!
If we want to contrast views, we can say... but at the same time.. or mind you.. ( The examiner will be amazed when you use something like mind you in your answer!)
Regarding -> but as far as _______ goes, ....
Such as ______ -> the likes of ______.
Grammar to make them do a double-take:
Third conditional is a breeze! -> If I hadn't shown you the third conditional, you might've not used it in your test!
Creative connecting -> You'll be just as impressed as the examiner!
Cool right?!
Are you ready to dive in and actually see some answers that will blow the examiner away?!!
