Some people claim that many things that children are taught at school have wasted their time. Other people argue that everything children study at school is useful at some time. Discuss both view and give your own opinion.

It is argued that some of the lessons that are being taught at

school

are a waste of time. On the opposite, many people believe that they will be useful in the future.

This

essay will discuss both points of view. Many people believe that the subjects being taught at the primary or secondary level are too broad,

hence

not all of them will be useful in the real world when the children will work in specific areas.

For example

, memorizing the name and structure of a chemical compound will not be useful for a child who wants to become a diplomat. In

this

case, studying chemistry in high

school

would be considered a waste of time.

On the other hand

, teaching students a broad range of subjects would not only expand their knowledge but

also

evoke their curiosity to learn more about various things. As young children usually have still not decided on what they want to do in the future, it is important to expose them to a wide range of knowledge, so they can develop interests in a specific matter later on.

For instance

, a child might have English as his favourite subject in primary

school

and

wanted

Wrong verb form

want

to become a writer at

first

, but

finally

decided to go to medical

school

because he developed an interest in biology in high

school

. In my opinion, it is great to learn a variety of things in

school

, but it is important for teachers to realize their student's interests and direct them to focus on their passion

instead

of pushing them to get good scores in all subjects. To conclude, both points of view have their own logical reasons and it is the teacher's job to make sure that the knowledge learned would not be a waste.
