I am going to abandon the sentences, 'I think, I believe'

In the evening, I ate the dinner in the kitchen, where we cooked, with Kevin, my roommate. Kevin is my best English tutor, because he is a native speaker and a kind person. He told me when I write essay or speak something, I don't need the sentences, 'I think, I believe'. Essay is personal writing, so I do not need to mention those again. If I want to use the sentences, I can speak when I compare my opinion with other opinions. So I don't need those any more, except for some situations.

That's true. Students often use those phrases too much in their writing. It's not always necessary or appropriate.
