Being a Jedi, Anakin is a very skilled fighter and has a strong connection with the Force. He's mastered both Shien and Djem So forms of the Form V style lightsaber combat, and even has some training in Form VI for dual wielding. He's strong and he's quick, and he's able to use the Force to enhance a lot of his abilities in combat. With the Force, Anakin can jump higher, and do things like Force Push opponents away or even pull his lightsaber back to him if it's never knocked out of hand. Even when at a disadvantage, he uses his brute strength and quick movements to overpower opponents. If his emotions are high it only fuels him more, making him stronger and faster. His final battle with Dooku being a good example at this. Dooku, despite his almost flawless and refined lightsaber techniques, was eventually overcome by Anakin's emotional driven attacks.
Ever since he was a small child, Anakin has had a way with building things. He even says so proudly that he can fix anything. By nine-years-old he had started repairing an old scraped droid that would later come to be known at C-3PO. He had even started working on his own podracer. He'll often tinker with with just about anything mechanical to enhance it. He's equipped R2-D2 with quite a few things and even enhanced his own cybernetic right arm to make it better. He's quite brilliant behind all that ego. He's a quick learner and catches onto things quickly.
Though he does have a hard time keeping some of his emotions in check, Anakin can think quickly in a pinch and will keep a level head under pressure. He can pretty much take whatever is thrown at him in stride, often able to do things that seem impossible. In his canon point he just got back from landing half a ship that wasn't even meant be landed. And it was on fire. He's brave and will take on any challenge thrown at him.
Anakin is also a very caring individual and friendship is one of the most important things to him. He'll try to help anyone and will boost people's confidence when they need it.
Weaknesses:
He still has the physical limitations humans do. He's lost his right arm in a duel and has many scars covering his body to show that yes, he is still very much human and able to be hurt. If it's his anger that takes over, while it can make him stronger on the offensive, it can even leave him open to attack defensively. The end of his duel with Obi-Wan on Mustafar is prime example of this. His arrogance and anger had taken over and left him wide open. Even his first encounter with Dooku where he lost his arm is a good example.
Anakin can be a bit awkward socially. After being brought to the Jedi Temple, he didn't have too many friends as he grew up. He accelerated at training faster than most and so he thought of himself better than them. So now, he doesn't really know when to hold back when talking to people. He can be very blunt and a little too honest.
Of course, Anakin's biggest weakness is his fear. His fear of losing the ones that are dear to him can easily control him and, ultimately, will lead him down the path of the Dark Side to become Darth Vader. His fear leads him to think irrationally and will make him do things even he sees as wrong. He's killed beings in cold blood, some with no remorse for doing so. He knew what he was doing when he was slaughtering the Sand People, even in killing the women and children. Which leads to another one of his bigger weaknesses, his anger. Like his fear, it also can very easily control him and his actions. He often holds grudges and can be vengeful.
Anakin also has the problem of being very arrogant and impulsive. For all of his strength, he has no restraint or balance, often at times very unpredictable. And while that sometimes can be a good things with the type of person he is, it just goes to show how despite what he thinks otherwise, he still does have a lot to learn.
