gonna take this thread to recommend any college students to take the highest level english class for master thesis or w/e it may be called that your uni offers.
Even if you are not ESL, those teachers are very good and really committed to trying to help you perfect your writing and help you notice your own flaws in your writing.
There are always ways to improve.
