The importance of writing in English for me

It is especially important to master English writing in Singapore as English is the official working language in our society and the only common language that connects the different races and religion together in this multiracial society. Thus, writing in English is not only crucial in my studies and career but also essential in my expression of views by allowing people, regardless of race to understand my thoughts. 

In my university education, I will need to write essays and thesis for my modules. Hence, mastering English writing skills will ensure that I am able to explain and emphasize my viewpoints and ideas effectively for my professors to understand and grade my work. Moreover, some modules have learning journeys which require me to write reflections on my experience and integrate the theories  I learn in class with the knowledge I gain from the learning journeys. Therefore, writing down my thoughts and learning points in clear and correct English serves as a great tool to facilitate my learning process which in turn allows me to become a more efficient learner when I gain more knowledge and insights through my reflections.

Writing in English is also important in my future career as I will need to write clear and precise reports for my job. As I aspire to become a teacher, having a good command of English is especially important for me to ensure that I can write my lesson plans and deliver my lessons effectively. Moreover, writing class and school reports for the school committee and parents will definitely require me to have good writing skills. Hence, it is truly important for me to have good English writing skills.
