Studying abroad can be highly motivational for students and also inspire their dreams. However, whilst studying abroad can have a number of positive effects on students, there are also many difficulties that they may meet along the way. With this in mind, it is more advantageous to study at home. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement? Give reasons for your answer.

grammar
Be vigilant with your use of 'despite of' as 'despite' alone is more appropriate. The phrase 'wider their minds' is incorrect; it should be 'widen their minds' - remember to use the correct verb form.
structure
The argument could be enhanced by clearer thesis statement and topic sentences that delineate your paragraphs. An essay should ideally follow a clear, logical structure with an introduction, body paragraphs that each introduce an idea, support it with evidence, and then conclude the idea, leading to the next paragraph.
coherence
Your essay could benefit greatly from more careful organization. Present ideas in a logical sequence, which includes organizing paragraphs and using linking words effectively (e.g., however, consequently, for example).
development
You attempted to provide examples to support your points, but the examples given are quite generic and lack specificity. Try to give clear, concise examples that directly support your thesis.

Fully explain your ideas
