Read the opinions below and make notes on your own opinions.
Why should children take after-school classes
“After-school classes can help kids get into a good university.”
2. “I want my child to be a successful person.”
3. “It’s good for children to start learning from a young age.”
Your opinions
Agree:
After-school classes are good for the children’s future. They can help children get into good schools and universities.
Some of these classes help children get better grades at school. Better grades help children feel good about themselves.
Some classes help children learn important skills not taught at school. These skills may actually help children relax, e.g. playing a sport or playing a musical instrument.
People learn better at a younger age. Children have more time than adults, so they should learn as much as they can before they get too busy to learn new things.
Your opinions
Disagree:
After-school classes take away the children’s free time. Children have no time to relax and just do nothing.
Children may be so busy they have no time to absorb and apply what they have been taught.
Some children are made to learn skills they are not interested in. These classes cause the children to be stressed. These classes take away the children’s childhood, too.
3b
Write a letter to the magazine to express your opinions on after-school classes for children. Use the following expressions to help you.
Try to write two paragraphs.
First, say if you agree or disagree.
Dear …,
I don’t really agree with … because …
Although some parents are right about …, I think children should … Then, explain why.
In my opinion, it is important for children / parents to …
I believe it is better if children / parents … so that …
Perhaps children / parents should / could …
If children …, they will…
Dear Sir or Madam,
I don’t really agree with what parents are saying about after-school classes because they only want to get their children into good schools or have successful children.
Although some parents are right about the importance of learning at a young age, I think children should be allowed to be children and have a carefree childhood.
In my opinion, it is important for parents not to push their children too hard. I believe it is better if parents try to
Example
really understand their children’s interests and abilities first so that they will not make their children take classes that are not suitable for them.
Perhaps parents could let their children decide for themselves if they want to have any after-school classes. If children are allowed to take the classes they choose for themselves, they will benefit more from these classes. They will grow up to be not only successful in their own way but happy too.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
