Identifying Word Repetition in Writing

Ah, writing - some view it as a great opportunity to share their thoughts, while others view it as being the last activity in which they'd like to participate during their time on Earth.  Either way, having to write is a fact of life while in high school.  If you have to do it, you might as well do it well, right?  A website which might help you do that is wordcounter.com.  This website doesn't simply count the number of words you have written; it identifies how many times a word appears in your writing.  If you are a person who uses the same words repeatedly in your writing, this would be a good tool to help you identify where you can add variety to your word choices.

The next time you have to write for this class or any other, use this tool to make sure you are providing the type of word variety your readers (i.e. teachers) desire.

Happy writing!
