My Strengths and Weaknesses in Writing By Irl Kell um 327667271 COMM 215 (N-NH) REPAST 05 Paul Aberasturi July 18, 2000 My Strengths and Weaknesses in Writing In this paper, I am to write about my strengths and weaknesses in writing. This is not an easy task for me because I have never considered myself a writer. Reading other peoples thoughts are activities that are more my speed. I simply have trouble putting my thoughts into writing.
Since, I do not feel that I have many strengths, let’s move on to my weaknesses. Writing deficiencies, I have plenty. My biggest problem is figuring out how to write what I am thinking. I have never been proficient at this task. It looks good to me when I read it, but when I turn the paper over to someone else; they do not find the point I was trying to convey.
Typically, I have to verbally express the meaning of the paper to them. This is the area in which I would like to excel in this class. Second, I have never really enjoyed writing. I just tried to make the best of it when I was forced to endure it.
It seems I have a tendency to focus on the tasks I enjoy doing most and turning away from the difficult ones. I feel if I take care of the “easy stuff” I can get more done. This is why I save the hardest for last. Now that I have returned to college, my hardest task has become my first chore. Can you see the irony Thirdly, sentence structure and punctuation.
What a complete pain in my neck. I would much rather complete the writing and have someone else worry about the correct syntax. Most of the time, I do not have issues with run on sentences or periods. It is all the rest of them. I found colons are good for making the eyes on smiley faces in my email (: -) ), but I am not too sure how to correctly use them. Please don’t even get me started talking about semicolons or hyphens My only saving grace is I still want to learn these skills.
The Essay on My Strengths and Weaknesses
I have a mutual share of strength and also weakness in a really and rarely main subject in school, although schools only focuses on Maths and Vietnamese, and usually left the other main subject in Award-winning. That subject, is English. People in my country rarely have young talented English Expert. My country doesn’t have schools that trains student to English Genius, because through many ...
Last but not least, reading. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy reading topics I enjoy, such as the news or good science fictions novels. My issue is with all of the dry textbooks that are required reading of in every English class. I will be back up to a pot of coffee every day just trying to make it through chapter one.
I have never found a textbook yet that I would consider good reading. Will we get lucky this time I suppose time will tell. A good sense of humor, coupled with a desire to accomplish my goals would be my strength. As for the rest, let’s just say I have a lot of work to do.
My plan is to take this class one-day at a time and try to make the best of it. The worse thing that could happen is I will learn some thing along the way.
