Does it make sense?

I wanted to say " Reading improves your skills relating to writing, or reading in class"

So I want to know if this works " In terms of reading, it improves your skills in class"

Because "In terms" means - only in relation to something.

Or how would you say that if possible, by using "IN terms"

'In terms of' is not a very well-styled phrase in any case, and should be used minimally, but if you insist: Reading improves your skills in terms of classroom reading and writing.

YEah. You're right. It's not used that often. But at least I understand what it means, so I don't need to use that word when writing.
