Some people prefer to work on school projects with a group, while others would rather work alone. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

Over the years, psychologists have analyzed and debated whether

show examples
 towards their classmates while working together. It is often argued that many
students
 are more predisposed to team-working, whilst others prefer to work on their own, rather than cooperate with their classmates. Personally, I advocate the former view. In
this
 essay, I will discuss both views using examples to demonstrate points and sustain arguments. On the one hand, there is a natural genetic predisposition for a significant part of the population to have a more extroverted character,
hence
 to be able to establish relationships in an easier way.
This
 characteristic is very helpful, especially in contexts that require speaking, working, and relating with other people. Working in a team represents a very strong soft skill that job hunters look for when conducting interviews and it is certainly acquired by being part of a group.
On the other hand
, other
students
 prefer to work on their own, since they are naturally more introverted.
Nevertheless
,
this
 still represents an efficient way of working, because of less waste of time,
such
 as coffee breaks or other types of conversations, that might happen during a meeting.
Moreover
, evidence suggests that
students
 that prefer to study or work on projects autonomously, rather than working with a team are more efficient. In conclusion, I assume that even though saving time by working alone can appear more beneficial, working with other colleagues may increase important soft skills,
such
 as efficiency, self-confidence and empathy. For these reasons, I strongly recommend working in a team, not only when a project is being assigned but
also
 in a day-by-day routine.
