Because many children are not able to learn foreign languages, schools should not force them to learn foreign languages. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In modern life, learning
languages
has become a norm in many parts of the world. It is often believed that it is unnecessary for
children
to learn foreign
languages
at

. In my point of view, it is important for young
children
to study other
languages
apart from their mother tongues. No one can deny that learning foreign
languages
plays an important role in communication skills. It is good for
children
to experience different
languages
. It not only helps them improve their
language
skills, but it
also
assists them to experience a variety of cultures from different nations. Indeed, they have chances to travel

By contrast
,
children
’s parents have to spend sums of money on foreign
language
classes, and
schools
have to spend lots of money to find English teachers. It makes no difference that knowing many
languages
can give youngsters many chances to develop quickly.
Apart from
this
, another aspect is taking
language
courses gives teenagers the ability to accumulate new knowledge. Thanks to that,
children
can become confident in communicating with foreigners. So they do not have problems when they interact with people from different countries. Another good benefit is that young people grow their

at the time they learn

. Nothing can be more apparent than the evidence that most

who are polyglots are brilliant and confident.
On the other hand
, it can be pressure for
children
to learn many
languages
at the same time, perhaps they can have
language
disorders. It seems quite clear that learning
languages
helps
children
grow their abilities. In summary, it is important for
schools
and parents to facilitate young
children
learning foreign
languages

task response
Ensure that your essay presents a clear argument, addressing the prompt directly and stating your opinion explicitly in the introduction. While your position is somewhat clear, you could explicitly state whether you agree or disagree with the statement in the prompt.
coherence and cohesion
Your essay should be organized into clear paragraphs, each one focusing on a specific point. Use cohesive devices to help your essay flow from one idea to the next without repetition or irrelevant information. Provide clear topic sentences for each paragraph.
task achievement
Include more detailed and relevant examples to support your arguments. Examples should be specific and clearly linked to the point you are trying to make. While you have provided some examples, they could be more detailed and directly relevant to the prompt.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
