In some countries young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for young people who decided to do this.
High
school
graduates are routinely taking a year of their education after convocation. Although
, doing this
might lead to a spontaneous loss of interest in study while also
stunting their progress, they will also
gain valuable life
experiences that will benefit them later in life
. In my own view, I would not encourage any student to suspend their education, in spite of, its rewards.
Education is a continuous process that requires constant motivation. So, suspending one's schooling at any point can result in a general loss of interest in the process. This
is due to the fact that, young people are generally enticed by the independence in the case of travelling and the financial incentive that comes with working. This
is evident by, the astronomical number of high school
graduates that outright refuse to further
their education in Nigeria. In fact, new found freedom and better financial status could convince them to abandon schooling completely.
However
, there are positives associated with high school
graduates taking a year break, for travelling of employment purposes. The greatest benefit of adopting this
line of thought, is that they would be to gain valuable life
experiences from interactions with strangers in their journeys or workplace. Therefore
, this
will develop their maturity and interpersonal relationship. This
qualities are relevant to great university career and in Suggestion
These
life
general. For example
, the experiences of my time as receptionist has been of assistance in my interactions with my patients as a nurse.
To conclude, students are increasingly being advised to either try the labour market or explore the world for a year after graduation. This
has proven to increase the dropout rate significantly after high school
, despite the, life
experience gained from taking this
step.Submitted by emmanueldimmy8 on
