Hey everyone! I'm an international student from Brazil, and when I moved to the UK for my master's, I severely underestimated how hard writing in a second language would be. 
I understand lectures fine. I participate in seminars. But writing academic essays in English? Completely different monster. My first assignment came back with comments like "awkward phrasing," "unclear argument," and "see me." I was devastated. A friend in my program suggested an assignment writing service, but I was nervous. Would they understand my specific requirements? Would it sound like me? After lots of research, I found one with good reviews and decided to try it for one assignment—just to see.
What I received changed everything. The writer didn't just give me a finished paper. They sent me a draft with comments explaining their choices: "I structured it this way because the rubric emphasizes critical analysis" and "Here I'm using this source to support your original idea." It was like having a personal tutor! I used that draft to rewrite the assignment in my own words, learning so much about academic structure and phrasing along the way. My final submission got a 68!
Now I use an assignment writing service occasionally as a learning tool—to see how a professional would approach a topic, then adapt it with my own voice and ideas. It's helped my confidence so much. Any other ESL students using services this way?
