When writing an essay I find that I struggle with the strength of connecting my reasoning's for my supports. When I am trying to connect my support to my reasoning for it I have a hard time wording and fully explaining what I am trying to relate to. I believe that I struggle with this because of lack of being able to make those deep connections between different supports or details. Another weakness I have when writing an essay is time management, I struggle with procrastinating my essays because I dread writing them. I tend to have some preparation done like the thesis and my supporting points done early, so then I think that I am good to leave it for a bit because I have so much time left before it is due. Usually it just screws me over until about 2 days before it is due when I have to rush the rest of the writing process.
When writing an essay I find that my strengths are coming up with a thesis that I can really work with and come up with strong supports for. I believe that this is one of my strengths because of how a always try to start early on things so that I don't have to worry about them later, usually when I first start my essays I put a lot of thought into making a thesis statement that I can make the strongest supports for. Once I have those ideas down I feel a small weight has been lifted off my shoulders temporarily.
My goal as an essay writer to improve on my weaknesses is to manage my time better by setting smaller goals each day to accomplish little bits so that the night before or 2 nights before I am not cramming to make the connections between the supports and details. Also, by giving myself more time to think I should have an easier time wording and fully explaining what I'm relating to.
