I had been visiting English course in my childhood, when I was 9-11y.o. But since my (successfully graduation) end of the school I started learning English on my own. Nowadays, I am practicing of course. I learning 10 words (phrases idioms sentences) per day, watching movies/serials with the websites specially for natives. But I don’t have enough speaking practice, so that’s the point. Maybe I can have some problems with writing grammar tasks but sometimes. Especially I can construct more complex sentences/ constructions however it takes time, a little bit or more😬

I grew up in Kazakh culture, fam/school/extra classes (дополнительные) all of there were in kazakh. No russian(I mean almost all day, but I speak well, definitely C1 level), no english.

I finished my school with red diploma and gold medal, my 1course was plenty hard (gpa 3.11) and 2course (3.7) was also hard a bit but I could manage.

I definitely need more practice, but still sometimes afraid to speak. Bc most of participants I know well, it is annoying

For 3 months I have been preparing for my IELTS, where there was a section of writing. There I received 5.5 grade.

The longest essay i wrote I presume must been an essay I wrote for my final exam for module of social and political knowledge. I wrote about 10 essays for various topics to be prepared for any topic that might appear in classroom exam.

The most challenging about writing essays for me is to find the right words that look most fitting and that do not repeat.

I think the key to improve your writing is to read lots of works and find the aspects that makes them good and improve your writing with such insights , that's what I'm going to do.

Sofia Diachkovskaia:

1. As for me, since the school period I wrote many essays and works in English. Most of them were academic for study programs and sessions but I also sometimes got creative and wrote more personal and art pieces.

2. I could not answer for sure but I believe the longest was about 13.000 words? For 7 pages 12 size, Times New Roman font for my final essay in the first semester. However, usually the works are not so big and complicated, I do not like to write to "watery" with many abstract things but as you can see, I also cannot write in a just a few sentences either.

3. Vocabulary I would say?.. I mostly look at Wordhunt or Cambridge dictionary to find synonyms and make my work look more appealing and lively.

4. First of all, I believe that in your classes we will read more pieces on different genres, that alone will increase my overall English level. Nevertheless, to boost it even more I also would love to learn and remember new synonyms, some high level adjectives and grammar, because I have a tendency to forget the learning material fast without revision.

I believe that it is like changing your thinking way and mind. I wrote an essay on philosophy and it took several weeks. What I find the most challenging is focus on your ideas, when you’re writing your essay you cannot stop at one of them. From my perspective, I should do more practices and that is enough
