overseas is an arguable condition. A group of people believe in
this
 opinion, because of improving their county.
Although
 I agree with
this
 belief, a few disadvantages of it will be explained in
this
 essay. The
first
 negative aspect of Sending
Students
 Abroad is referred to economic issues of those
countries
. In fact, developing
countries
 are the main home
countries
 of

 who are studied in Europe and other developed

 these

 which may increase financial problems for other people of their
countries
. The other side effect of studying overseas is related to the permanent immigration of
students
 to the host country due to lack of opportunities in their
countries
. Diminish proportion of these
students
 who are categorised as talented in their
countries
in contrast
 to ordinary people may decrease population intelligence quality (I.Q.);
therefore
, the development of their
countries
 might be postponed.
In contrast
 to disadvantages, sending student for studying in foreign
countries
, have crucial positive results. The most important aspect of
this
 advantage is related to the improvement of education in the
countries
 of
students

their compatriots and develop their territories. These
students
also
 play as a bridge between the country of studying and the state of their origin, which facilitate the trade of sciences, knowledge and merchandise.
As a result
 of these trades, the economy of the community has been improved;
consequently
, the gap between developed and developing
countries
 will be decreased. In conclusion, sending scholars to developed
countries
 for continuing studying has many positive results on home’s country.
Although
 primary investments for these scholars are high, these
students
 can increase education’s quality and Per capita income of their territories.

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
