Technology is becoming progressively universal. In the fullness of time, classroom teachers will be totally substituted for technology. Do you agree or disagree?
It is no doubt that technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in classrooms these days. There are some people say that technology should take over the place of teachers. I firmly disagree with this idea because the cost will be expensive and cannot meet the individual needs of learners.

I hope you are in pink of your health. In your last letter, you have mentioned that you are confused whether to go for post-gradutaion or start looking for work. I would suggest you that it is better to start a job in your field as this would add to your resume. You have completed your bachelors in Interior Design and have already done a six month long internship with an Architect and you have thoroughly enjoyed while working. Therefore, I do not think you will now like to go back to classes and study after getting hands-on experience in the field.

Some people believe that athletes, such as football players, are paid too much money. Others argue that they have extraordinary skills and deserve to earn large amounts of money.
People have different views on how much professional sports players should get paid. While others assert that their payments are too high for their performance, I firmly believe that they are entitled to earn the amount of money, considering their limited span of careers as well as the prospect of success.
