Explanation
Contrast

Notice that in all the sentences we are changing the idea. In the first part of the senteces we read something that changes in the second part. Try to use this in your emails and stories.
To express opinions
Be polite: I personally think that... If I am not mistaken it should be open.
I can share my ideas: I think is a good idea. I think we can do that
We can explain our opinions: In my opinion... I believe that this is wrong.
More: It seems to me... Besides...
Remember don't let those sentences alone. link them!
Bad example: Hello Paty I wanted to go to the party the party is late and I don't like to be late. Let's go early and have more fun. I don't think it will be a problem.
Good example: Hello Paty I wanted to go to the party but I heard that the party is late. Personally I don't like to be late. However I want to go early and have more fun. In my opinion I don't think that will be a problem.
