Band 7.5

Some people say that teenagers should work part-time and earn money. This way they will learn basic lessons about work and become more disciplined. Others argue that teenagers shouldn't sacrifice their rest and after-school activities to work. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

t is believed by some that it is significant for teenagers to have a part-time job and salary.
Also
, they claim that it is beneficial for them to be more independent and it helps them to get essential lessons. While others think that focusing on their study is a better choice for
students
. I strongly agree with the latter opinion. On the one hand, some people claim that teenagers should
work
 part-time because of their future
work
-life. They insist that it is a useful way to learn how to earn
money
 from an early age.
However
, I do not find
this
 argument convincing as they have time to learn the value of
money
 after their education.
In addition
, they believe that it is helpful to acquire financial management for their future which is I think is not an appropriate reason. They can expand their knowledge in
this
 field after graduation.
On the other hand
, another group of people justifiably argue that
students
 should not spend their leisure time working because they may distract from education.
Consequently
, they find it difficult to make a balance between
work
 and study.
Also
, it leads to reduce their academic performance because those pupils have less time to focus on their studies than those who do not have to have part-time jobs.
For instance
, there is more chance for
students
 who are not under the pressure to
work
, to be more successful in their education compared with their peers who are compelled to
work
. In conclusion,
although
 by working part-time
students
 are likely to learn practical skills in handling
money
,
this
 pressure brings about distraction for
students
 of their lessons.
Hence
, it is more practical to learn children about the value of
money
. Because I believe that it can be taught at the school alongside other programs.

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
