important to be aware of my strengths and weaknesses in my writing. Taking this class has helped me understand the strengths and weaknesses in my writing skills, and it has given me the opportunity to strengthen the areas in which I was weak.

A major strength of mine is that I proofread my work as I am writing. After each sentence that I write I reread it and check to make sure it has no grammatical errors or spelling mistakes. If the sentence sounds correct I will continue writing, if I notice the sentence has an error, either in grammar or spelling, I will correct the…

I will first discuss my leadership strengths (e.g., time management) and weaknesses (e.g., lack of negotiation skills) retrieved from the self-assessment and my daily life. Secondly, I will…

All these essays show the weakness and strengths I have as a writer. First, my research paper shows a lot of my strengths…

others I had to pause for a minute or two to actually find the best answer. I believe this test is very useful and helpful in determining my strengths and weaknesses.

During and after this test I experienced many mixed emotions. Rather sad, happiness, disappointment, encouragement or even inspiration. I understand that…

In addition, another strength that I have is that I am always trying to find ways to come up with deep analysis for certain pieces of evidence. Throughout high school, I…
