What’s your opinion about taking a part-time job for high school or university students?give your reasons and some examples about own experience. (250 words)
Many students have part-time job while attending high school or university. Most of them take the job for some extra money to buy school supplies while some of them try to get some working
experiences. Some works on campus and others work off campus. Some work only during summer breaks, but some work for the whole year.
I encourage students to get some part-time job while taking classes. That will give them some experiences of the working environment without needing to wait until they get a full time job after graduation. It also help them realize the value of money they are spending at school. Earning money is not as important to some students as to others, but getting real life experiences are equally important to all the students.
However, I don’t want the students to put more efforts into work than studies. While I was working part-time assistant librarian during my sophomore year, the job took a lot of my attention and I started to loose controls on my studies. Working should be a supplement to a student’s life and it shouldn’t be a barrier for his academic achievements.
Working at various places can give a student more experiences, but she should choose the right jobs for her to gain knowledge and experiences for her life. The job does not need to be related to her intended career. However, it should give her opportunities to learn. In my opinion, students should work part-time whether they are in high school or university, and get prepared for life.
