The
last
 ten years, there has been a rise in the numbers and diversity of online scholing programs who are accessible for adults. Nowadays,
instead
 of going to
school
students
 can learn from home. There are negative but
also
 postive consequences of
this
 development, I would argue the both sides in
this
 essay. On the one hand, learning in your own pace from home is for many
students
 a good opportunity.
For example
: they can have a job and going to
school
. They have more freedom to organize their own schedule, and
thus
 they are more flexible to fill their own hours during the day.
Also
, they can following course not only from home but
also
 from other places.
For instance
: They can go travelling around the world, and
therefore
 they only need internet access for studying.
On the other hand
, by not going to
school
 the
students
 miss out social contact with other peers.
For example
:
students
 need to learn to collaborate in a team. By working and learning only by themselves they get no experience to deal with other people's thoughts and opinions. Ofcourse,
this
 impacts on the development of student to learning. Not only to learn to coperated with others but
also
 not getting a network of people is something they missing out. You need to be inperson to get personal connectionwith others. All in all by not going to
school
 and seeing and talking to
students
 they miss out that part. In conclusion, the postieve point by following courses online is the flexibillity to follow the courses for
students
 in their own speed and their place. The negative side is the
students
 missing out networking and learn to work with others.

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.
