TOEFL sample essay: Some university students behave that they spend too much time

[Pooja]

Some university students behave that they spend too much time in class and would prefer to have more time for independent study and research. Other prefers to learn in a classroom setting guided by professor. Which type of learning is more valuable; independent study or classroom learning Why? Include details and examples?

Nowadays the world is full of competition. Everybody wants to prove himself best in each and every field. Now, people have become competent. This is because of their knowledge. Some students during their university educations get knowledge by learning in classrooms while others get it by self study. It does not mater how students increase their competency and knowledge. Only result matters. If I find a choice then I would prefer classroom learning. There are many reasons behind this. These are as follows:

In my view, if students go to a university and learn in a classroom setting then they can learn things very easily. This is because in classroom professors are available for guidance. They guide the students in right direction. In classroom study professors are available for teaching. They have good experience and an idea of teaching their students in the easiest way. Whenever students are unable to understand any topic, they can take the help of their professors. In this way students who have professors can save their time. Classroom studying students can learn things quickly as compared to those who do not prefer it.

In my view, students who prefer classroom study can get an idea for their job and other aspects of career. For example, many professors who have good contacts and experiences can help their students. These experiences and contacts are very helpful for guidance in right direction. Professors are also very helpful for studying material and direction. In classroom students have opportunity to discuss many ideas (like related to career and study) in groups and can know good and bad aspects of these ideas. I would like to say that classroom study is not only helpful for present situations but also for future.

In classroom studies, students take the advantages not only in the study and job related areas but also in their daily lives. For example, in a classroom, students become friendly and accommodative. In my opinion, these two things are very important in life. If people have these two qualities then they can find success in life very easily, in each and every field. This is because sometimes we come in contact of good people and sometimes not. With these contacts people can know the difficulties of life and get the experience of facing these difficulties. This is not possible in self study. In a classroom, students feel joyful and get into the habit of competition as well. But in self study students are unable to make friends and life experience in its true sense.

All in all I would like to say classroom study is good as compared to self study.
