My English and Visual Arts teachers both told me that I have trouble to express my information in a "clear and concise" manner. They kind of say I don't get straight to the point. How do I improve!?  :-\

hi, welcome to the forums!

i'm far from an english expert, but to express information clearly and concisely you'll need to avoid description as much as possible. of course, a bit of context is okay - the marker mightn't know your text, or your artwork for art that well - but not too much, as doing well in any subject really is all about answering the question! also, linking back to the question will make sure you keep turning back to the question, and therefore, getting back to your point at lot easier :-)

hope this helps!

Another thing you should do is expand your vocabulary! It is amazing what can happen when you start looking for words that sum up your point perfectly!
