TPO-29 - Independent Writing Task Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? To improve the quality of education, universities should spend money on salaries university professors. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Some people believe that a professor is a fundamental piece in education due to their great added value on students’ knowledge. However, I believe that in order to improve the quality of education, universities should focus more on important factors such as technology and student’s support –competition gifts, scholarships, and so forth.

First of all, using the technological-development method, universities would be able to provide their students with a better environment in class and better resources. In fact, I have read something of Waterloo (a University of Canada). This uni has a multi-study environment such as natural areas, games zones, and so on; and also combines physical classes with virtual classes, which let students consolidate what they have learned. Therefore, I consider that it would be a good idea if educational places improved education in this way.

Furthermore, it is common knowledge that students work better when they are encouraged, so if the university gave them any kind of support, they would improve their way of studying. For example, when I was in the high school, I was given a scholarship, but if I decreased my exams scores, I would lose it, so I study a lot to keep that scholarship. This is how universities should invest their money in order to get better students. another important measure to make would be students competitions in which students who win should be given a gift or a monetary incentive.

In conclusion, I do not think that universities should spend money on professors’ wages, instead, they should spend more on improve infrastructure and virtual-work conditions, moreover, educational centers should offer more student’s support so as to get the smartest and most dedicated students.

We are expecting: No. of Words: 350 while No. of Different Words: 200
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.
