my writing style
Everybody has their own writing style. I myself have an informal way of approaching it. I personally do not set up an outline or any sort of structure to follow when writing. When writing a school paper about a specific topic I don't have a lot of knowledge of, I will research the topic in order to get correct information on it. I'll then refer back to where I got the information to make sure what I'm writing is correct. The only time I will somewhat set up a structure for what I'm writing is when I don't know a whole lot about the subject. However, if it is an opinion based paper I completely just go for it. When writing about my personal feelings and thoughts towards things I find it so easy to just write and write. I think it's so much easier and fun considering I already have all of the information I need and don't need to do any research. I do often get writing blocks when in comes to papers that require a lot of length. I sometimes get to my point too fast and find myself completely lost on what to write next. In those situations I tend to drag on so that the page requirement is met. When I'm finished with my paper I'll read over it and sometimes switch a few paragraphs or delete unnecessary things, but other than that I would say I have a pretty laid back approach to writing.

An informal approach can be difficult to translate to a school setting, but you'll have several opportunities to write about yourself in this class.
