Why is writing English
important to you?
English is important because I feel that it is necessary for
every stage of my life. For example, writing English is required in school
assignments, and at work. Globalization has lead to almost every country using
English as a common language. Therefore, it is important for me to have good
writing skills because it is a good way for me to stay relevant in the society.
In conclusion, I would like to improve my English writing and communication
skills through this ES1102 course.
What are some
examples of writing English in your university education?
Most of the modules I have taken are assessed based on
writing assignments, such as exam papers and essays. I prefer to do hands-on
assessments as compared to the writing ones, because I do not have a strong
command of English. That will affect my performance for my writing assignments.
However, if I can improve my writing skills through practice and guidance,
doing writing assignments will then be not a problem for me.
How will writing
English be useful for your future career?
I want to be a social worker in the future. Writing English
will be useful, because writing case reports is part of being a social worker. I
realized this when I was doing my polytechnic internship in a Family Service
Centre. When I heard that social workers have to constantly produce case
reports for their clients, I was worried because I am not strong in writing.
However, the education that I received from my schools has
taught me the importance of writing good English. For instance, I was assessed
on compositions in primary and secondary schools, as well as essays in
polytechnic. To conclude, I would want to cultivate a habit of writing by writing
more.
