Helpful phrases

hello

for many people, learning spanish is not just a hobby, but a task with specific schedule and goals, because we must succeed in specific exams in specific timeline

given this fact, I would like to ask you propose phrases that are useful for oral or written speech, having in mind the oral exams (interviews, photo description, etc) and written exams (writing letter and essay)

to give an example I would say:

"en pocas palabras, puedo decir que..." (to start a photo description)
"en otro lado, tenemos que subrayar que..." (to introduce opposite arguements in an essay)
"seria gran omisiĆ³n no mencionar que..." (it would be great omission not to mention that... = to introduce new arguement)
etc

thanks!
