Mẹo sử dụng Linking Words hiệu quả

Đa dạng: Không lặp lại cùng một từ nối — thay "However" bằng "Nevertheless", "Nonetheless"
Đúng vị trí: Đầu câu (Furthermore,...), giữa câu (...; however,...), hoặc nối 2 mệnh đề
Đúng chức năng: Không dùng từ nối bổ sung (Moreover) khi muốn nêu tương phản
Tự nhiên: Mỗi đoạn dùng 2-3 từ nối là đủ, không nhồi nhét quá nhiều
B2 trở lên: Ưu tiên từ nối học thuật (Furthermore, Nevertheless, Consequently) thay vì từ cơ bản (And, But, So)
