Many people considered online learning a great educational platform, due to the fact that it is more affordable.
However
, learning through the internet lessen
students
' opportunity to access some academic materials that only
colleges
 provide. In my opinion, I agree that attending college is a better option in terms of accessibility to more educational resources and enhancing social
skills
. Admittedly, distance learning is a great platform for many
students
 who can not afford to go to
colleges
 or
universities
, because it is cheaper than the traditional way.
For instance
, parents don't have to spend money on uniforms or other material fees,
as a result
, parents can save more money and spend on travelling with their child which is an important thing to improve their close relationship with parents. For these reasons, online learning is a good choice for people who want to spend more time with their children and save more money for something else.
On the other hand
, studying in
colleges
 or
universities
 give more opportunity to access educational resources
such
 as libraries.
Additionally
, it is a great way to improve
students
' social
skills
 which are difficult to achieve from online learning alone. Many studies show that
students
 who study in traditional schools have better social
skills
 and be able to cope with problems in their future better than
students
 who study online. For these reasons, attending
colleges
 or
universities
 is extending
students
' possibility to improve their social
skills
 and access more educational resources. In conclusion,
although
 distance learning is more affordable, studying in
colleges
 or
universities
 is essential for developing their social and problem-solving skill which is hard to get from online learning programs.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
