I'm trying to write this essay and I find myself writing too many "not only ... but also ..." structures. Can you guys help me come up with some alternatives?
Basically, I want this kind of progressive effect:
Doing this is not only fun, but also one of the most important activities of human beings.
How about this one:
He is not only a teacher, but also one of the greatest educators in history.
Answer
Doing this isn't exclusively fun, it's one of the most important activities of human beings.
Doing this is not purely fun, on the contrary, it's one of the most important activities of human beings.
Doing this is not wholly classified as fun, conversely it's one of the most important activities of human beings.
He is not a mere teacher, he is one of the greatest educators in history.
He is a teacher and more, one of the greatest educators in history.
