Some people prefer interactive classes, others prefer to only listen to the teacher speak. Which do you prefer?
Some people prefer to have interactive classes, while others prefer to have classes with no interaction and just want to listen to the lecturer. Personally, I prefer to have interactive classes. I feel this way for two reasons, which I will examine in the following essay.
First, Interactive classes can help students to perform better in their academics and get good grades. When the classes are interactive, students tend to discuss more about the topic, so they will develop deeper understanding of the subject. As the students spend more time on the subject, they can easily remember and recall the topics during examination and express them in a better way. As a result, students can perform better in their examinations and get good grades. For instance, When I was in sophomore year, I had International Relations course as part of my coursework. It is a very dynamic subject, so my professor often made students to read the topics from different sources and convey our opinion in the class. By hearing to many opinions of my classmates, I developed a greater understanding of the subject. Consequently, in my final examination, I was able to express my thoughts from various perspectives. As a result, I got good grades in the subject. I am sure that if the class had not been interactive, I would not have performed well in final examination.
Second, Students can improve their communication skills by having interactive classes. When students are made to convey their thoughts in the classroom, they should communicate in a way, which others are able to interpret easily. Eventually, students will learn the effective way to communicate their thought with others. My personal experience is a compelling example of this. In my university, I took a humanities course, which often required students to take seminars and do presentations. In the beginning, I struggled a lot because I was not able to communicate properly in front of people and had anxiety issues, so I worked on developing my communication ability. Eventually, I developed my communication and public speaking skills. Taking this course also helped me to overcome my fears and anxiety issues. I am sure that if I had not taken the course, I would not have been able to develop my communication skills.
In conclusion, I believe that classes should be interactive because students can learn more and perform better in exams and can develop their communication skills.

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.
