Some people encourage watching sports as a way of learning about teamwork and strategy, while others believe that one can learn these skills only through playing sports. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

#people #sports #teamwork #strategy #skills
Most argue that playing sports is the right way to learn about teamwork and strategies,
instead
 of just observing the
game
.
However
, I believe that we can still learn the principles by watching the
game
 keenly and following those methods. In my essay below, I will
further
 discuss the topic on both sides and express my opinion.
Firstly
, as mentioned above, playing sports can be an effective way to learn the nuances of the
game
, and get well-versed in it. Some people who aim to reach a leadership position in the gaming industry or other fields will definitely benefit from personal experiences.
For example
, if you have to enter an entrepreneurial field and lead a company, you would need more practical knowledge than just knowing about strategies.
Hence
, it is vital to gain personal experiences as well.
On the other hand
, if one needs practical skills in every other domain, it would take a longer time to achieve fineness in any domain.
Hence
, we should
also
 learn the act of quick learning by observing.
For example
,in many competitive exams, some students score exceptionally high marks, and
this
 is not because they have learned every topic and practised all the problems, but because they get inputs from their teachers to solve some difficult problems.
Hence
, I feel not all times, one needs to get involved in a certain task, observation skills can
also
 teach us some important values.
Hence
 on an
overall
 note, I believe, to attain mastery, one needs to involve themselves in a certain task and gain personal knowledge
however
 in most cases, we can learn the principles by keenly following the
game
 and applying the methods in real-time, as it is
also
 not possible to gain experience in every specific skillset.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
