It is true that some people argue that a foreign 
language

 should not be one of the compulsory subjects at schools. While I believe that studying foreign languages is beneficial to some extent, I totally agree that they should not be forced to do so.    On the one hand, there are several reasons why 
children

 should be encouraged to study a foreign 
language
Use synonyms
. 
Firstly
Linking Words
, through learning about another 
language
Use synonyms
, students 
also

 know about the culture of that country.  
Moreover
Linking Words
, several schools  arrange exchange visits which enable their pupils to immerse themselves in the country whose
language

 they are studying.
Secondly

, by knowing a new
language

,
children

 can access information
that is

 only available in that
language

.
For example

,
children

 can enjoy websites or read materials written in English.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, it could be counterproductive to forcibly oblige students to learn another
language
Use synonyms
. One reason is that
children

 can not learn effectively under compulsion.
Thus
Linking Words
, enthusiastic teachers should motivate students to learn a new
language
Use synonyms
 through stimulating
language

-learning activities. Another reason is that schoolchildren will be reluctant to learn a new
language
Use synonyms
 if they can see why it might relevant to their present or future lives.
For instance
Linking Words
, youngsters should not be forced to learn English if they are certain that they will never need or use it in the future. In conclusion, I would argue that schools should encourage, but not compel,
children

 to learn a foreign
language

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
