It is argued by many that for growth and development of a nation,government should provide more funds to teach science subjects like medical science, computer science and information technology as compared to other subjects.I assert with this opinion because inventions in through science have helped saving health and environment significantly. To embark on, Science plays a pivotal role in human development over centuries.Researches in medical science have helped cure various diseases like cancer and other long term diseases as well as irradicate and prevent lethal diseases like plague, polio,influenza and Ebola.Thereby helping improve health of the country.Recent health surveys in the United Kingdom has shown overall 30 percent reduction in occurrence of diseases .Thus, investing more money in teaching medical studies will help country progress and develop. In addition, advancement in computer science and information technology has aided in development of industries with complex machineries,which helped increasing the productivity.Thereby boosting economic growth of the country.Owing to use of machineries and manufacturing processes in the United States and China , studies have shown that these countries have progressed significantly over years.In fact the developed countries all over the world have more scientific background as compared to developing countries.furthermore industrialisation helps produce jobs eventually promoting the economic growth of the nation. To, conclude, in my opinion, although other subjects like arts and literature would benefit country,funding more in scientific teaching would help invent new things which will promote growth and development of the country and make it a better place to live in.

Today, in this competitive world when many new ideas are evolving every day. It is essential for everybody to be competent with communication as well as presentation skill. I agree that our current generation lacks these skills and to ensure that our future generation is strong with these must skills, we should start giving training from the school itself. This essay will assert few points justifying why speaking and presenting are very important skills for anybody to grow professionally.
The profession could be any like a manager in IT company or product company, politician, scientist at NASA, or a individual contributor in any project, in every day of professional life, you have to prepare a presentation and speak to your manager or supervisor to elaborate your ideas. If you lack in any of these skills, you will face problem in convincing people to follow your thoughts. It is very hard to become representative of company or a town or a country without having good communication skill.
Even, these skills are so important that almost all employers conduct group discussions before hiring a candidate.
Then, the important question is how to become expert with these skills? We learn many of our behaviours or skills either from parents or training institute. Without any doubt, parents are the initial teacher for any kids. Kids learn talking and good behaviors from parents. Once they are grown up and start going to school, responsibility partially shifts from parents to school as kids mingle with many other students in school and participate in many activities like speech competition, annual functions, exhibitions etc. So, the school should add special scheduled training to let students learn and practice presentation and speaking skills in public.
To conclude, speaking and presenting in public are essential skills for all to progress in professional life and school should give special attention to make their students far away from stage fear or presenting in public.
