Writing is underestimated

Nowadays, many people find writing quite useless. They think that it is neither an essential part of language learning, nor just a useful tool in everyday life. Personally, I advocate writing! I believe that it can be a tremendously useful tool for language learning, if used in a right way. For instance, after a few months of learning German I decided to give writing a chance in order to prepare myself for speaking. First of all, it helped me to get the sense of grammar and language itself. I have also eliminated the most egregious mistakes from my speech and started building my own sentences, which was extremely motivating and fulfilling. For more than a month I've been writing daily and it's impact on my language skills is hard to overestimate. After seeing these astonishing results, I decided to do the same for my English. However, writing an essay like this daily would be quite overwhelming for me, hence I thought that just a few essays per week should suffice.
By the way, I am aiming for a formal writing style. Thanks for reading, your feedback means a lot!

Using "I thought" places the whole idea in the past tense, but since you're describing your opinion on something you're currently doing/starting, I think it's more natural to talk about it in the present tense.

"nor just a useful tool in everyday life" would imply they think it's _more_ than useful in everyday life. But it sounds like you're writing about people who don't think it's useful in every day life.
