Virtual Schools

Virtual Schools are a new way that is more comfortable for the students. It is a new way of learning that helps them understand the mateirial better. In our age and time this way is becoming popular. The students use the internet to learn the same things that students in regular schools are learning. To join a virtual class you need to get its address and go on line to its site on the net.

Research has shown that students learning in a virtual classroom did 20% better than students who studied the same material in a regular classroom. Virtual classrooms allow the students to learn all the material from their home, they just have to go on line to the Virtual classroom site. If the student has any difficulties or questions about the material, he can send e-maile to the teacher and she will help him.

However, learning in the Virtual classroom has negative sides as well. The Internet has many technical problems and probably it will would influence the process of studying. Moreover, this form of learning prevents from teenagers the social gathering. These students have more contact with the computer than their friends. The computer become to be their best friend.

In conclusion, I think that Virtual Schools are a very attractive way of learning and maybe this way is more comfortable, but in my opinion, the regular schools are the best. The regular schools permit the social gathering and I believe that this is more significant than the studying.

Dear Ms. Simon,

A trip to Poland is a very significant opportunity that we have gotten from school this year, but unfortunately, not all of the students can go on this trip just because of it's exaggerated cost. I am writing because I wish to complain about the high price of this trip, and I would like you to be reasonable and take this problem seriously.

First of all, this trip is important and necessary for us because of our history- the Jews history. We want to see in real what our nation went through and where. There are students that want to participate in this trip because of personal reasons, like death of a close relative in the holocaust, and these students can't realize their wish because of the high price.

In addition, the Holocaust survivors who tell us what really happened and remind us of the holocaust, will disappear in a few years and nobody will remember that history. We should never forget this terrible war, that our nation went through. As a result, we have to go to Poland to see and remember, but the high price doesn't allow us to do so.

In conclusion, I am very disappointed that many students would'nt participate in this important trip. I will be grateful if you do your best to let these students go on the trip.

I look forward to a prompt reply.

Yours truly,

Sara Ishakbayev

This is better.
