First notebook entry: Introducing myself
Hey there, I'm SelinaHi, and welcome!
Some of the phrases were out of place or strange, I'll try to explain them a little.
"get a better improvement for..." - you're repeating yourself, because an improvement is something better. "Get an improvement" also sounds clumsy, it's better to use the basic verb, to improve.
"I've been wanting to..." - because you used recently. "I want to change my job" is a basic statement, but because you added a time factor you need a present perfect form (=connect the past to the present). Because it's still happening, the verb needs to be in the continuous form: to be wanting to...
"In the meantime" - use this only to describe something that happens while another unconnected action is happening. These actions run parallel.
