Written Communication is needed anywhere you go. You should be able to read and write at a scholarly level, or at least well enough so that people may understand what you are trying to convey. Usually this means having organized writing, and being able to connect to who ever you are writing to.
This was a paper I found that I was very proud of. I felt that this was one of the best papers I had ever written, and it was done in my first year at New-Technology High. This paper demonstrated strong communication skills in a persuasive tone, which is something I don't usually succeed in.
Writing hasn't been a strength of mine, in fact I used to hate it, however I think that my time at New Tech has made writing come more easy to me. I have been able to surpass my fear of writing and turn it into a creative activity that I can enjoy.
