So, the other day I was trying to write this email to my professor, and I thought I was being all clear and professional. But after I sent it, I re-read it and realized I had a bunch of awkward phrases and run-on sentences. Now I’m sitting here cringing because I’m sure it made me sound way less capable than I actually am. I’m just frustrated because I don’t want to come off as sloppy, especially when I know I can do better

I've been there! Writing emails, especially important ones, can feel like a balancing act. You want to sound professional but end up overthinking it or, worse, missing small mistakes. What helped me was using a good proofreading tool or even asking someone to take a quick look before hitting send. It's surprising how much a second set of eyes can catch awkward phrasing or those sneaky run-on sentences
Honestly, I’ve been in your shoes before. I used to have the same issue—thinking my writing was fine, then realizing later that it didn’t come across well. What really helped me was using the Zendesk Translation App. It’s super useful for catching those awkward spots and making your writing sound more polished. If you're trying to clean up your writing, I’d recommend checking their pricing at www.translate.com/integrations/zendesk . It made a big difference for me!
