Writing tips
· These days there is a common belief, in which schools are criticized, due to the fact that all they teach
are traditional school subjects, instead of teaching what is essential for the everyday life.
· The [MLD1] school education in Argentina is not enough to enter The University. That is why are not
teaching students the skills they need for their future. To argue this task I have some reasons that I will
explain in order.
· Nowadays, there is some discussion about education. [MLD3] . Many parents have made a complaint
[MLD4] about the skills given in school, because they consider that the students are not prepared for the real
world.
· First of all, the academic knowledge: [MLD6] There is a big knowledge inequality since people with more
resources and with access to private education have a better chance than the students that attends public
schools. Therefore, the academic knowledge depends on the access to the sector of education of each
student
How can we improve it? Let’s
share our ideas.
· The education system that school practices in its current form which has both its
positive and negative side. Complex topics in mathematics and sciences are being
taught, yet the most basic necessities in life, such as financial management and other
skills, are left out.
· In conclusion, I think that schools should improve their system. Although they cannot
do alone the improvements. They will need the assistance of the state. For example, the
state can help in the topic about the money management.
· As a conclusion I would like to add that if the school did not teach us these skills we
would not be able to face the different problems well prepared.
· On the other hand, Schools not organize in the right form. As a result there is a bad
money management. For instance, the children have not the books that they need to
study. In several cases, they have not a pencil case or there not enough tables. It is
difficult that Schools have computers for each student.
