To begin

Furthermore

, the new wave of

technology

development is beneficiary for children’s education since it will improve different skills in children. It is no secret to anyone that the social interaction of children in the twenty-

first

century has dramatically improved compared to the previous generation which is highly because of the social networking and various applications that children use in order to exchange the flow of information. Not only students benefit from these devices and gadgets to review their course materials, but

also

they can form groups in which they can conveniently share their ideas with

one

another. As an illustration, since I am an English teacher, every year at the beginning of the semester I will ask my students to make a group on Telegram in order to communicate with

one

another and to convey whatever we have learnt and discussed in the class.

This

strategy has helped me to recognize my students’ strengths and weaknesses on a particular subject to be discussed in the upcoming sessions.

Moreover

, students can benefit the online class tutorial on Telegram application and improve their social interaction skills as well. In conclusion, having considered the aforementioned reasons into account, I believe that educating children in

this

modernized world with the abundance of

technology

and gadgets is easier than it used to be in the past. Children can benefit from the modern education system in which they can use online classes and the like to bond with

one

another and share their ideas and opinions more conveniently.
