Essay # In today’s job market it is far more important to have practical skills than theoretical knowledge.

IELTS Writing Task 2 # Essay

In today’s job market it is far more important to have practical skills than theoretical knowledge. In the future, job applicants may not need any formal qualifications. 

To what extend do you agree or disagree?

Sample answer-  

Practical skills and theoretical knowledge are two completely far-off approaches to learning. While theoretical education will help one to get a clear understanding of the fundamental concepts and how a particular mechanism works. But without practical knowledge one cannot put their efficiency into practical usage. In my opinion, in today’s job market theoretical knowledge’s importance cannot be entirely overlooked.    

Formal qualifications help a person learn why and how skills are used and implemented. It is more preferable in today’s job market as without theoretical knowledge tasks cannot be performed in a job. The theory is important from a job’s point of view because it gives a deeper insight into a context. In fact, professionals like teachers, lawyers, doctors cannot execute work without formal qualifications and a degree. 

On the other side, some people disagree as they think practical skills are far more important for a person’s functioning at a professional place. Certain things can only be learned through experience and performance. For instance, for a designer or an artist practical skills like creativity and innovative ideas that they gain with training is more beneficial that theory. Similarly, there are many people who were college drop-outs but presently they are doing wonders in their lives.

In the end, theoretical knowledge and practical skills are interconnected as they complement each other. Therefore, though practical skills are given more weightage in the job market these days, formal qualifications should not be denied as it helps make an individual’s future career more prosperous.

IELTS essay # Solving environmental problems for the present generation to sacrifice our present convenient way of living

IELTS Writing Task Essay

Solving environmental problems for the present generation to sacrifice our present convenient way of living 

The key to solving environmental problems is for the present generation to sacrifice their convenient way of life for the sake of future generations. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Sample Answer

Evidently, problems related to environmental degradation are rising day-by-day. Some people argue that by compromising luxurious living style, we can solve this problem easily. However, I believe that less usage of technology and by being more responsible towards our surrounding, human race can tackle this issue effectively.

To begin with, one of the most effective steps can be taken by making some changes in people’s daily life activities. Unknowingly, many of us get indulged in those actions, which can be hazardous for our environment. For instance, using plastic materials, although we are all aware that plastic bags are harmful for the environment, people still use plastic bags. In addition, running some campaigns and spreading the information about harmful effects of using plastic bottles and bags can save earth. Furthermore, scarcity of drinking water is the major rising problem these days. Though humans are blessed with abundance of water, depletion of water is increasing in many parts of the world.  By making some changes in our habits, water related problem can be solved.

Furthermore, the advent of technology is adversely affecting our environment. Demand for the production is rising at alarming level. However, limited use of technology and promoting more usage of natural resources such as solar, water and tidal energy can solve this problem.

To conclude, we could get the chance to lead this present lifestyle after struggling for many years. I believe that by considering some above mentioned steps we can save our earth for descendants without hampering our present life.

IELTS Writing Task 2 – Essay # TELEVISION AS POWERFUL EDUCATIONAL TOOL OR MINDLESS ENTERTAINMENT?

IELTS Writing Task 2 – Essay

TELEVISION AS POWERFUL EDUCATIONAL TOOL OR MINDLESS ENTERTAINMENT? 

Some people believe that television is a powerful educational tool. Other people believe that television is nothing more than mindless entertainment and should be discouraged.

To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement? 

Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Provide examples and supporting evidences to back up your opinion on this subject.

SAMPLE ANSWER-

Television is a versatile tool as it can be used for different means such as communication, ideas and skills. Due to the popularity of television, there are varying views on television being a positive force or a negative force on the education of our community.

On a comforting prospect, television has played the function of a supportive and reinforcement device. Being an entertainment oriented medium, this device has the ability to provide a more appealing and visual experience to learning to students of all age groups. It is working as an effective tool in education, it helps to accomplish the aims and objectives of education. For example, introducing Smart Learning as part of the academic curriculum helps students to retain knowledge for a longer period of time. Educational channels such as National Geography and Discovery Channel also give a lot of educational information.

On the contrary, it is believed that television is nothing but senseless entertainment. Learning through traditional means of education is preferable rather than gaining brief knowledge with the help of a digital device. For instance, reading a newspaper and watching it on television is not the same. The in-depth knowledge that the newspaper provides is lacking in news flashes displayed on the television. There are several channels available on television that do not show appropriate content.

As an outcome, people prefer gaining knowledge through technology but it is not a substitute for written education. Therefore, conventional and technical knowledge both play an equivalent role in the education system of our society.

 

DIFFICULT WORDS-

  • VERSATILE- able to adapt to different functions
  • REINFORCEMENT- process of strengthening
  • COVENTIONAL- in accordance with what is generally done or believed.

Sample Answer
Whether the school teachers or the government should take the onus of the education imparted in educational institutes is a moot point. I personally believe that both the teachers and the policy makers should play an active role in planning, devising and implementing the curriculum at all levels of education.

To begin with, most of the countries in the contemporary world have a Ministry Of Education which deals with all the matters and policies regarding education. The Ministry appoints academicians and administrative staff who plan and formulate the curriculum for all the classes in the primary, secondary or high schools. Not only that, they also give directions to the schools about the number and type of assessments which will be used to check the students’ progress. Furthermore, this department can make changes and amendments as and when required depending on the feedback received from the schools and parents.

However, the educators who actually teach the students in a classroom situation also play a vital role in the educational system. They are the ones who follow the curriculum and deliver the lectures using a wide range of audio-visual aids. Although curriculum designing is of paramount importance, the value of an effective teacher cannot be overlooked. They can arouse interest and inquisitiveness of learners which helps in better understanding of the topics.

All in all, the government and the teachers together make the educational machinery run. There has to be a close association and cohesiveness between the two in order to increase the level of education of a nation.
