Writing well is not an impossible goal for anyone. You can start by applying these simple rules:
1. Read the text in a communication key: who is it addressed to, what the receiver is looking for, how much time is it going to spend, etc.
2. Review the structure: is it a description, an argument, an enumeration…?
3. Correct the syntax, structuring the sentences in a coherent way.
4. Emphasize verbs. Janer is surprised at how poorly English verbs are used, and advises reviewing them carefully.
5. Ockham's rule: if you can say one thing with two words, don't say it with four.
6. Check the accuracy of vocabulary: technicalities, synonyms, connectors, etc.
7. Personal style: finally, it would be necessary to review the style itself in the text, to homogenize it.
