Some people believe that teaching children at home is best for a child's development while others think that it is important for children to go to school. Discuss the advantages of both methods and give your own opinion.

It is commonly thought that
home
schooling is the best for the
development
of a child while others think that normal
school
is more effective. From my point of view, albeit teaching children at
home
has its own advantages, I believe that children should go to
school
. On the one hand, there are several advantages of
home
schooling for a child’s
development
. Being educated at
home
means the child
don’t have

such
as bullying and violence which is caused by other students. For that reason, the social evil rate in
school
may decrease significantly.
Home
schooling
also
helps children make their own decisions on subjects to learn based on their needs or passion without being restricted by the number of subjects at
school
which has already been chosen for them, without considering their interests. As an illustration, a child who has talents in art may find it

to put emphasize on his/her goals at

because he/she is not distracted by the other subjects. Another advantage of
home
schooling is that it enhances

therefore
their progress in learning is much faster.
On the other hand
, I’m of the opinion that going to
school
is better for children than
home
schooling. A normal
school
provides an environment with peer pressure; it means that students are always in a competition with rivals who are their classmates. The prizes here are good results in tests and the improvement of many skills which are helpful for their future. The environment is another factor why normal
school
is important. Not only does the
school
provide a learning atmosphere with qualified
teachers but

teachers, but
also
a friendly and open playground for children and their friends.
As a result
, students feel easy to absorb knowledge through discussion with teachers or classmates, which leads to the
development
of interpersonal skills. Extracurricular activities in
school
have an indispensable role to play in the
development
of

children, hence

they have a chance to explore the world with friends which can stimulate their curiosity since they encourage each other. To conclude, each method has its own upsides and
this
brings about different results. While I agree that
home
schooling now is more and more popular in the modern world, a normal
school
is irreplaceable
