Some school leavers go traveling or work for a period of time instead of going directly to university. Do you think this has more advantages or disadvantages in their study?

#school #leavers #work #period #time #university #study
Nowadays, it is common for pupils to have a break directly after graduating from secondary
school
 to travel or work.
This
 will lead to both advantages and disadvantages, I believe that there will be several positives and drawbacks in both cases. On one side of that argument, having a gap
year
 for
traveling

travelling

 benefits
students
 in learning new languages and discovering different cultures,
although
 many
students
 work during
this
 period to become more independent and have a source of income, Most
students
 decide to have a job immediately after finishing high
school
, Travelling is a way to relax from the stresses of full-time education,
thus
 it develops their social skills,
in addition
, foreigners they meet from different cultures
consequently
 they will learn new languages,
for example
, my friend Sara after graduating she took two years breathing space and
traveled
Change the spelling

 to China now she is a fluent Chinese speaker.
Furthermore
, the disadvantages of both cases perhaps make people not interested in continuing their education,
also
 they are a
year
 behind their high
school
 friends and have forgotten the lessons they learned, and
students
 returning from a break find it very difficult to adjust to university life and starting a course after a
year
's break is back-breaking, Most of the
school
 leavers forget what they studied or how to study at all, namely in my university there are number of
students
 the administration imposed a preparatory
year
 on them because they forgot what they learned in secondary
school
 and the cause of
this
 clean forget was the gap
year
.
Overall
, taking a break from studies can be advantageous if it permits people to learn more about the world and new languages, Though they should be careful that it doesn't affect their learning journey.
