A COLLECTION OF ENGLISH ESSAYS

1. CHILDREN GOING TO SCHOOL EARLY

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Children should begin learning a foreign language as

soon as they start school. Use specific reasons and examples to support your position.

Language is the best means of communication. In the modern globalization era it is not enough to be able

to speak one language to communicate with the outside world. I strongly support the idea that children

should begin learning a foreign language as soon as they start school. They faster become familiar with a

strange language, improve their hearing ability to understand new words as time goes by and learn new

words. In the following paragraphs I will list some reasons to support my position.

First of all, if one wants to see outcome soon, one must start sooner. So, the early children begin to learn

new language the better will be the result. Scientists say that a child does not confuse two different

languages but learns them more effectively.

Second of all, adults are often afraid to make mistakes when they are speaking in a new language. This fear

is one of the biggest barriers for a person in his efforts to speak freely. Otherwise, children do not afraid of

making grammatical mistakes because basically they just repeat words and sentences in the way they hear

them. Also, children have a better chance to get rid of an accent. They faster get used to the right

pronunciation and better feel the melody of a language.

To sum up, I think that it is very essential for children to begin learning a foreign language in their early ages.

It is brings many benefits such as great pronunciation. Also, it help a child develop and gain more knowledge

which is good for a long run.

2. STUDENTS AND JOBS

In some countries, teenagers have jobs while they are still students. Do you think this is a good idea? Support

your opinion by using specific reasons and details.

A number of people think that teenagers need to work while they are students. Nevertheless, other people

believe that young people are supposed not to combine their education with a job. These two options are

controversial ones. In my opinion, they both have disadvantages and advantages. I base my opinion on the

following points.

From one side, a working student has many benefits. First of all, a person learns how to arrange a time to be

able to combine his studding and earning money. As for myself, I think it is a very important benefit anyone

can get from this. Secondly, a student learns how to save money and keep his budget. A person gains new

experience and knowledge working with the new people. He feels more independently and spends his or her

money more careful.

From the other side, a person can have not enough time to meet his or her course requirements. Sometimes

it may result in a failure on an exam and a waste of money and time. From my everyday experience and

observation, some people require more time to study new materials and prepare for an exam. Others, at the

same time can be easy understand new materials. So, my point is that a person should decide for himself

whether he will be able to combine his studding and his working.

Another important aspect of getting a job is that a student most likely will have no time for parties, movies

and his friends. I think that he or she should understand this fact.

To summarize, I believe that a working experience will give a student more benefits in the future than it

takes from him or her in the present.

3. STUDENTS AND MONEY

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Only people who earn a lot of money are successful.

Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

I think that the question whether money is a main indicator of people's success is a controversial one.

Some people believe that only one who earns a lot of money is successful. However, other people think one

who does not earn a lot of money can be successful too. For several reasons, which I will list bellow, I agree

with those people who think that money is an indicator of success.

First of all, if a person earns a lot of money it means he or she has unique knowledge and experience and

people want to pay for these. For example, a good lawyer is often paid a very high salary, because he or she

has won many cases and people are ready to pay big money for his knowledge.

A second example is that a salary of a surgeon simpliciter depends on his experience and knowledge and

on how many surgeries he has completed successfully. In this case surgeon's salary simpliciter depends on

surgeon's success.

Second of all, a high salary is in an indicator of a prosperous career and profession. People change their

jobs, move from one place to another looking for a more interesting and better paid job. Of cause, some

people do not care about salary as long as they like their job, but from my everyday experience and

observation I can state that the majority of people who are not satisfied with their revenue would exchange

their current job for another one with higher salary.

Finally, money plays, may be unfortunately, a very essential role in our modern life. So, people who earn a

lot of money by working hard are considered to be successful.

May be it sounds a little mercenary but I think that success must be encouraged financially otherwise it is

not a success.

4. TEACHER’S SALARY

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Teachers should be paid according to how much their

students learn. Give specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

I think that I have to disagree with the statement above that teachers should be paid according to how much

their students learn. In the following paragraphs I will give my reasons to support my opinion.

First of all, all people are different and they have different abilities to learn and understand the given

subjects. Some students have to spend many hours studding a subject. At the same time, other students

need half an hour to deeply understand the given lecture. Second of all, we all have different goals in

attending schools. Some students want to gain more knowledge and experience that will help them in the

future to succeed and make a great career. Others are forced to go to a school by their parents, so, basically,

they do not care about their grades and studding.

I think that lowing or rewarding teachers depending on how much their students have learn is not fair.

However, I believe that evaluation of teachers by their students is make sense. Teachers who get high

grades from their students deserve to be rewarded financially or otherwise. Otherwise, teachers who get
