PART 4: WRITING:GIVING YOUR OPINION


Is our educational system being effective enough?
Are students working hard enough?
Are parents helping in the educational process?
Where's the problem? Have you got any suggestions?


My opinion is that the educational system is effective in some regions of our country.I think the students in Catalonia who don't get ESO certificate won't do well in the future, because you need good qualifications to get a good job. If students don’t listen to the teacher or they don't study or don't do their homework they can't have a good future. It’s clear that in the future these students will have no job because they won’t have the graduate of ESO. If you haven’t got the graduate of ESO sit is very difficult to have a good job. Some parents influence negatively their children because they tell them that they can stay at home and watch TV .I believe that all the students should study hard to get the ESO Certificate.I think the average of my class is between 6 and 7 marks out of ten.

In my opinion the problem is that students aren't motivated enough and they don't like going to school to learn.
