Homeschooling is thought to belong to the past and is not socially accepted in the modern life setting. Indeed, with the development of the education system and most parents are too busy to play the role of a teacher, homeschooling has became very rare. However, there are few people who still choose...

This is my response to the same question. As regard to Coure's response, I do not think plastic would be a viable alternative for wood as it causes damage to the environment as much as deforestation does. Anyway, if you do believe it is a practical solution, do justify yourself because the question ...

Hi Ryan, I have posted few writings on the forum and have not gotten any response so far.

Hi Hoagdh, I think your writing is great. Your ideas are clearly expressed and supported, and you have a wide range of academic vocabulary.

Hi,

When you say there are pros and cons to each teaching style, you would be expected to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of EACH teaching style. I don't think your essay covers that.

Hi RobDreak, What I said was the principle of learning a language, you probably meant slightly different when you had to force myself to learn. If music is a good resource for your friend, then it would be more effective for her to study that way. Be aware that sometimes English they use in the lyri...
