Throughout this essay I will
be discussing the skills that I need to work on with it being personal skills
and skills that pertain to writing essays. And I will be discussing personal
strengths, weaknesses and capabilities that would feed into me being a better
writer. Lastly, I will be going over the things I will do to improve my strengths,
weaknesses and capabilities in order to become a writer.
Before this class I didn’t realize that there are skills
that I need to improve. For example, when
writing I can be nonchalant and not too much of a perfectionist. Those are
qualities that should not go together but they are two major things that
sometimes have a negative effect on my performance. When I bring up being
nonchalant I don’t mean completely being careless. I mean that by when I am in writing
and something isn’t right, or I’m confused about something I don’t want help. I
want to figure my problems out by myself which affect my work load. So, when it
comes to being nonchalant that is something I need to work on because when writing
an I see my grade outcome I really care, and it is way harder to fix things at
the last minute. There is a lot of room for me to
work on my strengths, weaknesses and capabilities. I can work on my strengths
by being more dependable in when it seems like the situation is impossible and
not giving up as easily. I can work on being more responsible and courteous by making
sure I improve eon getting assignments in on time. I can fix my weaknesses
while writing by asking for input and not being scared. And when it comes to
improving my capabilities, I can improve using my resources by listening to my teacher
and asking her she finds her resources, and about the different ways on how she
chooses to find resources and use them in a way that it still understanding to
readers.
In conclusion, I may have the good and bad skills of
being nonchalant, introvert, and Scared to ask question. Which has its good and
bad effects but with the right improvements they will result to the
fundamentals of being a good writer. Same with my strength, weaknesses and
capabilities. My strengths contain of having a creative mind, not using words
to big when writing an essay. My weaknesses consist of time management, being an
introvert and being Shy at times to much which negatively affect time when writing.
Lastly, my capabilities I’m capable of coming up with a lot of innovative ideas
due to my creativity and I am great at projects and handling different topics,
and due to me being able to handle a wide variety
of topics I am usually confident about my outline when constructing an essay.
But, with having all of those trait and skills there is always room for
improvement. And I feel if I can improve every last one those, it will make me
into a successful writer.
