Some people claim that many things children learn at school have actually wasted their time. Other people argue that everything taught at school is useful in the future. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Whether all of
things
Suggestion
the things
taught by teachers at
school
is
Suggestion
are
valuable or not is a controversial issue. In my opinion, most of
knowledge
Suggestion
the knowledge
which students acquire in their academic career is beneficial to them. The argument that many
knowledge
taught by teachers are useless is plausible. There is no denying that some courses have little practical value.
For example
, elementary politics and history are two compulsory courses during learning at
school
, but some students think
these
denotes a person or thing
this
knowledge
are
Suggestion
is
so boring that they do not focus on them.
Furthermore
,

,
these students are less likely to know how to apply them. Another evidence to support the argument is that students must learn some basic lessons
such
as math
,

,
foreign language and computer technology.
Although
these things are important for students' career in the future, students do not need to learn them deeply and systematically.
In other words
,
Accept space
,
it is enough for children to attain
nearly intermediate level
Suggestion
nearly intermediate levels
a nearly intermediate level
in terms of general
knowledge
. To be specific, there is no need that most of students learn
calcus

calculus
,
liner

algebra in the university.
However
, some people think that all kinds of things learning at
school
are valuable.
This
statement is right to some extent.
Firstly
, the
school
is a place where people get necessary
knowledge
qualified for their jobs. If a person

wants
to be
a

,

,
he need to take
a
Suggestion
an
MBA program or something relevant to management and corporate finance.
Secondly
, students can be moral and distinguish right from wrong through some relevant compulsory courses. It is obvious that
this
statement exaggerate the fact. Not anything learned at
school
can students benefit from. In conclusion, people can learn ethics and necessary skills
for
Suggestion
to
work when they are students.
However
, some courses are lack of practice and less necessary.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
