Being embarrassed at your own writing is the first step toward not being embarrassed at your own writing. Or not. I pretty much make it up as I go along. Either way, welcome to the Water Cooler. Hope you find what you're looking for.
Thank you. To be frank I was really distressed at my writing, moreover I am preparing for examinations that require highly proficient essay writing skills and I believe that I am not getting enough practice so I decided to find a critique community and ended up here.

Okay, here's an immediate critique: The second sentence above needs a period or semicolon after "writing" to fix the comma splice. Then, don't forget a comma after "moreover" if you choose a semicolon or "Moreover" if you choose a period.
Now for a long-term critique to ease distress: Before the college you attend expects "highly proficient essay writing skills," it will offer classes to teach skills and practice them. Subsequent writing classes are designed to build on writing abilities until they're more and more proficient. Enjoy!
I can recommend some really helpful and not boring books for just that kind of writing, if you'd like.
