T4 Blog Writing Prompt #1

Many people would have different opinions about their ideal school. To me, an ideal school must have helpful friends and experienced teachers, conducive studying environment and many types of activities planned for the students.

Firstly, an ideal school must have helpful friends and experienced teachers. With helpful friends, you would be able to look for them when you are in need of help. For example, when you have difficulties doing your homework, you can ask them to teach you. Also, it is important to get along well with your friends. I would definitely not want to go to schools with lots of bullying or fighting. With experienced teachers, they would be able to engage with students effectively and would be able to catch their attention so that they would not lose their focus and end up not paying attention to what is being taught. Experienced teachers would also know the suitable teaching methods to be used. Then, students would be able to understand the subject better and would score better. Thus, I feel that an ideal school must have helpful friends and experienced teachers.

Secondly, an ideal school must have a conducive studying environment. There should be little sound so that students would be able to listen and concentrate on what is being taught. For example, the classroom should be located far away from construction sites and roads so that the noise would not affect the student’s learning. I feel that a conducive studying environment is very important as I think that no one would be able to concentrate in an area with so much noise. Thus, I feel that an ideal school must have a conducive studying environment.

Lastly, an ideal school must have many types of activities planned for the students. Examples of activities are field trips and overseas exchange programme. Field trips can benefit students as they would be able to learn many new things and can also experience it for themselves and not just learning it from their textbook. As for overseas exchange programme, students would be able to know people from other countries learning environment and also learn their culture. Such activities are considered killing two birds with one stone as students would be able to relax and have fun while gaining more knowledge at the same time. Thus, I feel that an ideal school must have many types of activities planned for the students.

In conclusion, I think that an ideal school must have helpful friends and experienced teachers, conducive studying environment and many types of activities planned for the students.
