Some people think that homeschooling is an excellent alternative to traditional education.



Today, many families are making the decision to teach children at home instead of sending

them to school. Some parents believe that they can provide their children with the education

they need to bе successful. But should they choose home schooling or public schooling to

achieve this aim?

In my opinion, homeschooling has а number of advantages. Firstly, it is very convenient

because you do not need to observe school hours, days or terms. Secondly, children who have

special educational needs are home educated when school cannot meet the child's needs.

Thirdly, homeschooling allows parents to provide а more personalized and adaptable learning

environment for the child, and the family can spend more time together.

However, some people say that homeschooled children suffer from lack of communication with

their peers. They may also miss out on healthy and educational activities. In addition to classes,

schools organize а lot of extracurricular activities, including sports, drama clubs and music.

But homeschooled children do not face such problems as bullying or peer pressure. Besides,

they still have opportunities to socialize with other kids and to form friendships. Some parents

organize different activities for their homeschooled children. Kids are also involved in day-today

activities such as shopping or volunteering, which gives them а chance to meet new people

and to improve their social skills.

То conclude, homeschooling requires perseverance and а lot of hard work. But it gives students

an opportunity to work on just what they want and when they want. I think those who receive

one-on-one instruction and have no distractions in their learning environment may achieve more.

Some people think that self-education is not very effective.

Education plays а very important role in our lives. In today's tech-savvy society, people can

acquire knowledge not only in the classroom, but in any informal space. But is self-education

for everyone?

In my opinion, self-education has а number of advantages. First of all, self-taught people are

not dependent on others for knowledge. They can extend their knowledge and acquire new skills

whenever and wherever possible. Secondly, self-education usually costs nothing, and it does not

require а fixed lifestyle. What is more, the process of self-education has become much easier

with the vast amounts of information now available on the Internet.

However, some people say that they depend on teachers and tutors for guidance. They need

someone who will help them, show them the way to acquire information and knowledge, and

encourage their efforts to learn. Others admit that they are too lazy to choose self-education.

Many people find it difficult to motivate and discipline themselves.

But although self-education may bе а challenge for many people, its rewards are numerous. It

helps you to become more intelligent and open-minded. Even if а person has already obtained а

degree, they can continue their self-education.

То sum up, acquiring knowledge and skills is an ongoing process. Self-education gives you а

chance to bе anything you want to bе or to do anything you want to do. I believe that the options

for self-education are very flexible and the opportunities are unlimited.

Some people think that if you want to get а good education, you should go abroad.

Studying abroad has great appeal for many people. Every year thousands of students go to

foreign countries in order to participate in study-abroad programs. But is studying abroad

worth the time and cost?

In my opinion, there are numerous advantages of studying in а foreign country. Firstly, those

who study abroad have а chance to learn а second language or to enhance а language already

learned. Secondly, immersion in а foreign culture helps students broaden their horizons. They

can meet new people and experience new traditions. What is more, an international education

opens employment opportunities in many countries and markets. Employers often give

preference to students with overseas experience because of their knowledge, flexibility and

understanding of other cultures.

However, some people believe that it is better to study in one's own country for various

reasons. First of all, studying abroad may bе very expensive because some countries charge full

price for foreign students. Secondly, because of the language barrier and culture shock,

students who study in а foreign country often have to deal with added stress to their studies.

But I think that even though you may spend much money to receive а solid education abroad,

you will earn it back because people with an international education usually have а lot of job

options and high salaries. Besides, some study-abroad programs are sponsored bу the student's

school.

То conclude, studying abroad offers а valuable experience and widens cultural horizons. It is

especially beneficial for those who look for employment in foreign countries or in multinational

organizations. То my mind, studying in another country is an exciting experience that almost

everyone would like to have.

 

In my opinion, one of the main advantages of studying in another country is the opportunity to meet new people. For example, you can meet people from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds, not just those from the country you are studying in. Another advantage is that you can get a degree from a university with an international reputation. In other words, you can use this experience to help you get a job in the future. Advantages: Programmes are often better than those in your own country. (A foreign university/college may have more advanced materials and/or teaching techniques.)

Being abroad can help you find new interests. (A foreign country often offers many new activities which may not be available in your own country.)

One disadvantage is the fact that you will not be near the people who support you, such as your friends and family. This means you may find it difficult at times on your own. Another problem is that the language spoken in the country might be hard to understand or use. For instance, someone might be able to use the language as a tourist but it is much more difficult to write long essays and to read academic books in another language. Disadvantages: Studying abroad can be very expensive.

(For example, there may be expenses you wouldn’t have to cover in your own country, such as accommodation.) A student may find that they do not ‘fit in’. (Different cultures mean different habits, and students may find it hard to live with these, or to live without certain habits from their own country.)
