Eighth Step to Improving my Academic Writing
What critical thinking skills do I need to develop?
There is a tendency for students who come from foreign country with another academic culture to Europe to have a poor score for their essays. Probably, because of an arguing with authoritative opinion is inappropriate there. They do not grow up in an environment where the children are taught to form a critical thinking. However, it is the most important skill and students should know how to apply it. A critical thinking it is not just a listing of facts, or quotations; it is an ability to analyze and evaluate why and how something is happened. Firstly, a big challenge for student is learning how not to afraid having contravention position about majority’s opinion or some expert’s opinion. Even experts cannot be right always. Secondly, every time when students read the books they have to reflect about the topic and how does it correlate with their own opinion. Finally, analyzing all sources and evidence and combine them with own idea give a good outcome.

This correction isn’t necessary but using “which” instead of “what” sounds slightly more intelligent.

Sentences in English sound stronger if they start with a subject and have a verb starting a predicate:
Subject: “Students from non-European foreign countries”.
Verb: “tend”.
Predicate: “tend to have poor essay scores.”
PThis is probably, because of an arguing with authoritative opinion issomeone with greater authority is considered inappropriate there.
Starting a main part of a sentence with “because” is considered incorrect. Speakers still do this regularly in regular speech and in casual writing, but it often looks strange when written out.

You might say “a critical way of thinking” instead. English does allow using gerund forms as nouns preceded by an article such as “a,” but it sounds unnatural so often that I avoid it.

In English, we think of “critical thinking” as something that seems the same to everyone and is already understood by the listener, so we don’t usually use an article on it.

You have great use of grammar! The subject matter is slippery to talk about in English, even for native speakers. What you wrote is clear; I just tried to make it sound more like what I would say. I am a teacher and you are quite right. I wish my students would disagree with me more often!

Thank you for help. You know I think that academic texts have to be more complicated than strong. The reason is I haven't known anything about subject and predicate especially. However, I like that idea regarding a strong sentence. Now I want to read more about it :)
