University education should be free to everyone, regardless of income. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

#university #education #income
A
university
 is a place where “pebbles are polished, diamonds are dimmed” itself signifies the importance of
university
education
. Some segments of society reckon that there should not be any fees for students who want to study in colleges.
Although
 there are arguments on both sides, I agree with
this
 statement. Even these beliefs will be discussed in support of my personal stance in the following paragraphs. To embark on, there is no doubt for some people who support to have some nominal charges for
education
, because they believe that a lot of funds need to be accumulated to make a
university
. If there is a tuition fee, students may maintain standards and ensure the quality of the teaching.
In addition
, free
education
 cannot be appreciated by society and,
as a result
, it may chance to become worthless.
For instance
, one recent study conducted by the USA confirmed that there is a shortage of low-income jobs like plumbing and carpentry in many countries due to free
education
.
Thus
, expensive
education
 might help to full fill these types of jobs. Why
university
education
 should be free? The underlying reason behind
this
 is that it will encourage more public to attend school and
this
 will be beneficial for society.
Consequently
, it will lead to developing the country. It does not only help to increase literacy but
also
 there is a chance to decrease the crime rate.
Besides
 that, communities that are not financially stable can
also
 join
university
 and achieve their dream job. To
further
 corroborate the above view, due to free
education
 in many countries, the rate of illiterate mass is decreasing. The more they study, the better life is. In conclusion, there are several benefits to free
education
, I would say that authorities should keep a normal charge for
education
.
That is
 why I opine that while problems are decreasing due to free
education
, people may take it in the wrong way.

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
