Nowadays many students have the opportunity to study for part or all of their courses in foreign countries. While studying abroad brings many benefits to individual students, it also has a number of disadvantages. Do you agree or disagree?
In recent years there has been a vast increase in the number of students choosing to study abroad. This is partly because people are more affluent and partly due to the variety of grants and scholarships which are available for overseas students nowadays. Although foreign study is not something which every student would choose, it is an attractive option for many people.

Most of people tended to live in a small population, in the past, when everyone had a smaller circle of acquaintances. However, nowadays, people living in bigger cities prefer to be individualism than miggling with each other. Some debats that inhabitting in the sub-urban have more benefits outweighing the drawbacks.

Some people think the best way to learn new things is to study them alone. Others think that it is always better to get help from a skilled teacher. Discuss both views and give your opinion
The debate over whether individual study or learning with the assistance of a skilled tutor is more effective has been longstanding. It is my contention that some individuals cannot study alone without external interference due to certain factors, however, people who are skilled and motivated enough to conduct their studies should remain committed to their studies.
