Without a shadow of doubt, group project is an inevitable part in school or work life. Once talking about the way to communicate about the project, in numerous people’s opinion, they argue that writing an e-mail is a better way to communicate about the project for colleagues or classmates than face-to-face. However, I strongly disagree with these people and believe that in-person meeting provides far more advantages for group project. I feel this way for two specific reasons which I will thoroughly examine in the following paragraphs.
To begin with, face-to-face communication is necessary for the team because team members can have a better understanding of each other. For example, people can observe other people’s facial expressions and tone of voice when they speak which help to clarify or contradict the messages being said. Without these non-verbal languages, team members will not be able to tell if they are on the same page and, as a result, they cannot reach consensus easily. It is important for team members to get a clear idea of the group because it makes the team run more effectively and efficiently, thus, meeting in person is beneficial for team members.
Secondly, in person meeting is better since it helps the team solve the problems faster. For instance, team members do not have to standby for another person to be available to reply the e-mails and can discuss the issue instantly. With the presence of the time consumed waiting for other members, the team will come to an agreement slower and, at the same time, delay the working process. It is crucial for the group to have an ability to sort out difficulties in a short time because once faced with an emergency, they have to handle the situation immediately. Therefore, face-to-face communication is important for group projects.
To conclude, the problem of whether classmates/colleagues should communicate in person or via e-mail about the project is complex. Nevertheless, I still contend that face-to-face meeting is advantageous for group projects due to its benefits for the team’s clear understanding and rapid communication.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
