In the past lecturers could teach a certain number of students in one lecture hall. With the development of new technology, it is hard to justify the reason to participate in the lecture physically and not via the internet.Do you agree or disagree?

Online learning has changed the education system and is slowly replacing the decade all classroom teaching method, where the educator would teach a fixed number of students in a lecture. Is the change justifiable and a good enough reason to supports online learning as the new system? In my opinion

Secondly

, you can clear your doubts with a teacher in a class easily. In many cases, while teaching remotely the teachers may not know each and every student personally, which is not the case in a traditional classroom method. In conclusion, the latest trend in education is online learning, which is quickly replacing the in-person teaching method. While some think it is no more necessary to go to a school or university, others think online learning may not be so effective. I support the latter argument because by attending a class on the campus you get to interact with the kids of your age group regularly and the teacher-student relationship is much stronger.

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.
