For example

 they have to move to a foreign for better scope.
Lastly
, by moving abroad they get the chance to learn about new people and cultures as well. How different their lifestyle is, and what good things they can adapt from them.
On the other hand
, they have to manage their own needs by their own as they become alone in foreign and sometimes even

 start facing problems like anxiety, depression etc.
Moreover
, they

coherence cohesion
The essay lacks a clear structure. The introduction and conclusion are appropriately present, but the body paragraphs lack coherence and logical flow. It is important to organize the ideas in a more structured manner.
task response
The essay provides a partial task response. While both advantages and disadvantages are addressed, the development lacks depth and clarity. The essay should explore the advantages and disadvantages in more detail, providing specific examples and evidence to support the points.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
