Some students believe homework should be optional (Сочинения ЕГЭ английский язык)

Homework has always been a major part of students’ education. It is believed by some students to be compulsory, while others have different point of view. In my essay I will try tool look upon this issue.

In my opinion, homework should be obligatory. Firstly, it helps students to systematize the information that they receive at lessons. Secondly, home assignment gives pupils an opportunity to implement the knowledge in practice, that helps to improve their erudition in a subject. Finally, doing home tasks makes schoolchildren more responsible and disciplined. Thanks to homework students acquire qualities of a good character.

However, there are pupils who claim homework should not be obligatory. They say they do not have time to do home assignment because of being busy with extracurricular activities.

Moreover, they are convinced that homework is a waste of time as it does not make any affection on students’ educational process.

Nevertheless, I cannot agree with these statements. In my opinion, doing home tasks teaches pupils to manage their time, so if they learn it, they will be able to take the time not only to the home assignment, but their hobbies and interests. Moreover, I cannot agree that homework is a waste of time. In fact, pupils who do home tasks get better knowledge and higher marks.

In conclusion, I would like to say that homework should be compulsory. To my mind, homework improves students’ skills and helps them to become self-reliant and independent.
