tuition. It is believed that the government should make the education free for everyone. In my
viewpoint, I partly agree with this idea.
On the one hand, A free-of-charge education is beneficial for the poor. Firstly, it can encourage a huge
amount of people to go back to school. As you know, all parents want to make their children educated
by sending them to school but sometimes due to the lack of resources, they have to deprive their
children even from the basic education; Therefore, free tuition can set the equality of opportunities for
them to develop their abilities and also the financial problems are no more burden
On the other hand, education without fee may affect directly teachers' salary and government budget.
Firstly, a number of teachers will give up their job to find a well-paid one. It is said that , the number of
students inversely proportional to the number of teachers. For instance, a class normally has 39
students and a teacher but nowif there are 50 pupils in the class, teachers cannot make sure all their
pupils understand the lessons. Secondly, the government do not have enough money to build more
schools and universities. They have had to consider a diversity of fields such as education,
transportation , economy and so on. Therefore, it is hard for them to satisfy with people requirement of
education.
In conclusion, free tuition is both advantageous and disadvantageous. It is the reason why the fee
should be reduced wisely and sensibly to suit the pocket of everyone.
