65、 possible version: Is a Training Class or Family Teacher Necessary?More and more middle school students are going to all kinds of training classes or having family teachers at the weekend. Our class had a heated debate. There are two different viewpoints about it. Some think it necessary. Firstly, i
66、ts more effective to study with a teacher than by themselves. Secondly, it can strengthen what is learnt in class. Besides, they can learn a lot more. Others think it unnecessary. For one thing, students can easily form the habit of dependence. For another, students need time to relax from time to t
67、ime. Whats more, the purpose of many training classes and teachers is to make money. In my opinion, whether a training class or family teacher is needed just depends. If you are really very weak at or interested in a certain subject, maybe its OK for you. But be sure to choose a good and suitable class or teacher, Otherwise it would be a waste of time and money.
