Ielts 雅思 口语全攻略 Ideas and Examples for ielts speaking Jeremy Chiron

Do you think that children should learn practical and artistic skills at school?

Yes, definitely. I think it's important for students to learn about the arts, like music and drawing, because it can help them improve their imaginations. In addition, such skills could be useful for their future. They could learn how to appreciate beauty. It would give them ideas on how to decorate their house in the future, or how to select different kinds of music for different events or moods they experience. If they end up working in marketing, hotel management, or the entertainment industry, artistic skills would come in handy (= be useful). I know that in America, students are encouraged to choose a fun class from a variety , of choices like carpentry (= wood work), ceramics (= making pottery), or calligraphy (= art of writing). In this way, students can realize that not everything you learn at school comes from books. On top of this, I also think that learning how to write and speak English is a very practical skill in today's world. Teachers should do their best to make students speak as much as possible. You know, in my country, we are often taught how to read and how to use English grammar, but we don't often get a chance to speak the language.
