    watch the matrix 2, with that old guy with a white beard in it @ the end. He never ends a sentance, it's all;

    Ergo, Concortedly, therefore, we can conclude that, thus, vi sa vi.

    Just write it as you would normally then use find and replace for and/so/then and replace them with another word

    what a tortuous but well thought-out assignment.
    imo your teacher's pretty smart of thinking of an assignment like this ;]

    I would use "that being said" and "thus" a lot lol.

    We've done similar things, it's just to get you to use wide vocab

    so - hence/therefore
    then - after/therefore/because of this (depends what context obv.)
    and - also/with/on top of that/along with

    Hope that makes sense

    In honestly, it depends on your own personal competence with the English language. Do not use (as suggested above) colloquialisms such as "on top of that", but take care not to use phrases which do not fit the general style of your essay. What do I mean by that? If your writing is comparable to St. Pancras station as opposed to a lovely, large, beautiful Georgian townhouse (a genius once told me that), then stay with simple connectives. Linking simple phrases with eloquent connectives gives the impression that your writing is somewhat forced.

    Suggestions?

    So: Really, this one depends on context. Providing that you don't start a sentence with "so", and you use the word sparingly, you would be better off telling your teacher where to shove it. It is a very useful word, given the right context; it is pointless trying to make other words fit when it clearly is unnecessary. You could use the likes of "in order to, to ensure that, the result being", but use your initiative when deciding which words fit.

    Then: Again, but to a lesser extent, you need to consider context. However, in general you can use phrases including "consequently, as a result, following this, henceforth, subsequently", etcetera.

    And: A complete ban on useful words is completely useless. If used sparingly, "and" is a great word. Mix it up a little with "additionally, in addition to, as well as, alongside, furthermore, together with". Just please, make sure the word sounds grammatically correct in the context of the sentence or you will sound like a fool.

    Use them anyway, your teacher sounds like a hypercorrect freak who probably thinks it's correct to use "and I" in every circumstance. Being picky with word choice makes you look pretentious and is no better than being oversimplistic with language.
