Expenditure on Tertiary

 is becoming a concerning factor for many
students
. It is often argued that no fee should be charged to
students
 for

 studies, despite their financial capabilities. I partially agree with
this
 statement. On the one hand, a cost

 can certainly improve the economy of the nation.
This
 is because even those who cannot afford a
university
education
, can study, compete and secure a job on the basis of it.
As a result
, both illiteracy and unemployment rates will minimize significantly.
For instance
,
due to
 the free tertiary

 in Finland, the poverty rate is minimalistic ,unlike other Asian countries where

On the other hand
, keeping tertiary

 can become a threat to government funding. It means

 a huge fund is required to run a

As a result
, the

For instance

 is indeed beneficial for

 and the economy of the nation,

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
