Earlier
students
 did their higher
education
 in their
country
, but now due to globalisation
students
 have a lot of opportunities to go to foreign
countries
 for higher
education
. I would like to discuss the pros and cons of
this
 development in
this
 essay. One advantage of pursuing higher
studies
 abroad is that
students
 get to interact with different kinds of people and learn about new cultures and languages.
This
 helps to enhance their perspectives.
For example
, recent
studies
 have shown that people who have studied and worked in different counties are more adaptive and knowledgeable. They can have better career opportunities because they bring new ideas and technology.
On the other hand
, studying abroad has its own cons.
Students
 who tend to go to other
countries
 for higher
education
 try to make the new
country
 their home. They finish their
studies
, start with their career and settle down there. For ,example many Indian
students
 go to foreign
countries
 like the United States of America to pursue their higher
education
.
Instead
 of returning to their
country
 after completing their
studies
, they get enamoured by the sophisticated lifestyle of the rich
country
 and choose to live there. In
this
 way, many developing and underdeveloped
countries
 lose valuable human resources. In conclusion, there are both benefits and drawbacks to studying abroad. The main advantage is that the
students
 get to learn a lot of new things while studying abroad. The main disadvantage is that they may choose not to return to their
country
 and
thus
 fail to contribute to its development.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
