IELTS practice 1

This post is dedicated for IELTS writing practice. Yeah, I will take my second IELTS test by next week, and I need to get at least 6 band in writing section, horrible!

OK, let's get started! Today, I am gonna write about studying abroad.

Nowadays, along with the rapid development of technology and transportation, many students decide to further their study abroad. Some student believe that studying abroad will bring many benefits for their life. However, some other students feel that they should finish education in own home country. It is quite natural to find such contradiction in this wide range of society.

Students, who assume that study abroad has a lot of disadvantage, they have several reasons for that. First of all, living far away from home, student will suffer from loneliness and homesickness. This condition might lead to depression and unstable mental health. Secondly, many student do not want to come back to their home country after graduation. These student want to find a better and comfortable life and also brighter future overseas. This may result in a serious drain-brain condition, which resulted in huge lose of excellent talent of our country.

On another side, student think that studying abroad bring many advantages. For instance, studying abroad will broaden their horizon. Having experience with a new culture, language, and living style will be a priceless experience and will help them to be open-minded person. Next, there is academic advantages. Students can lean advance science and technology. They might receive different education system than in their home country. Moreover, after graduation, they will have more choices for their future career. 

It is quite understandable that people from different background will have different point of view regarding study abroad. For my part, I stand on the latter opinion, that while overseas study comes with drawbacks but also the advantages are also obvious. It can broaden one's vision. Student may get a chance to study in a first-rate university with sophisticated facilities. Therefore, as long as it is financially visible, study overseas is a good choice for student.
