Study English in their own countries or study abroad (Thanisa)


Someone said knowledge is knowledge by itself that means knowledge has its own value. The only different is how we learn from the knowledge and make use of it. In a way to learn English, some people want to study in their countries, but some people want to study abroad. In my opinion, I want to study abroad. There are three reasons, which support my idea

The first reason is speaking English all the time. If students study English in their own countries, they speak English only in their school, but if they study abroad, they have a chance to speak English all the time, and their English skill will improve significantly. For example, there might be some students who have an opportunity to study abroad for a year. His or her English skills are better than his or her friends who study in their own country.

The second reason is having a chance to speak English with native speakers. If students study English in their own countries, they speak English with teachers who come from their countries, and their teacher have the same accent as them, but if they study oversea, they study with native speaking teachers who have good accents. Also their teachers teach them to spell English words correctly

The third reason is considering about western people’s thinking and their culture that helps you to understand essays or paragraphs in the English language. Students can gain extensive knowledge about social studies in other subject though learning about English and writing essays and paragraphs

These are three reasons I want to study abroad. If students have a chance to study oversea, they should use this opportunity. Studying aboard give a lot of knowledge and experience which they can’t find in their own country

  1. Hi Thanisa!
    You make some very compelling points regarding educational, philosophical and even social aspects that all affect learning. Your picture is very endearing - is there a reason why you chose the picture of a child instead of a picture of an adult? (Janelle)
