Self Assessment Essay

My name is Beata Koszyk, better known to others as ‘B’. I have a lot of outdoor hobbies like, kayaking, canoeing, fishing and camping.

To improve writing I think it’s important to have a passion first, but by doing drafts it’s also a big help in improving anyone’s writing skills. You also need a will to learn, so your work would come out clean and perfectly structured. We all have that, you just need to want to learn and this class makes me want to know more and get better.

    This English class has been very helpful in my efforts to improve my writing abilities, but has also been very challenging due to there being a different median for every essay. It’s been a heavy work load especially this semester since I decided to enroll in five classes, but in the end it has been very beneficial indeed. I can’t say that writing essays has been one of my strong points but I believe that this course has helped me improve tremendously and it has also made me feel a lot more comfortable with my writing. While in high school I would usually write all of my essays a day before the due date a habit of mine that was very difficult to overcome, but now I have learned from my mistakes.…
