Nowadays, using online business
meetings
 and business training is more and more popular in our life. It seems to be a good way to connect with our colleagues, and counterparts
besides
 offline face-to-face
meetings
.
This
 development has both upsides and downsides which will be discussed in
this
 essay. On the one hand, there are several benefits associated with online
meetings
. The most striking one is that it helps to save time and
money
. The primary reason is that travelling for
meetings
 might take a huge amount of time and
money
 which can be used effectively for other tasks.
For example
, one person living in Vietnam has to spend nearly 2 days on a round-trip flight to take part in a meeting in America. Meanwhile, he/she has to pay
money
 for accommodation, food, transportation, etc. Another significant upside that should be mentioned is that it is very convenient.
People
 can join the meeting anytime anywhere as long as having the
internet
.
This
 method is helpful for special circumstances
such
 as in Covid 19 pandemic period to ensure the business of all companies.
On the other hand
, the aforementioned phenomenon has a few drawbacks. It is undeniable that the quality of the meeting might depend on the quality of the
internet
. In some rural areas,
people
 face difficult situations when using the
internet
 because of the underdevelopment of infrastructure or
internet
 cable sometimes being broken.
As a consequence
, the
meetings
 can be interrupted without any result.
Furthermore
, it is difficult to get the agreement of all
people
 in some crucial
meetings
. In conclusion, online
meetings
 bring about certain merits including saving time and
money
, and convenience
as well as
 demerits namely the meeting quality and difficulty to get
agreement
Correct article usage
an agreement
show examples
.
Therefore
, depending on the importance and circumstances of each company,
people
 can use suitable methods.

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.

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