Some people think that it is possible to get good education only in elite boarding schools, and preferably in England.
Education is very important for everybody, that is why all parents try to find the best school for their children. Is it really important to get good education only in elite boarding schools and better in England?
People say that English schools are the best ones, but I think that it is not always true. A personal choice is very important. Moreover all schools have good teachers. The real teacher is a person who is confident, who is polite and who tries to do all his or her best - and it does not matter what school the teacher is from. Also state schools are free and you can spend family money for extra classes or other valuable things. Children going to these schools communicate a lot with other students from their community. They are ready to live in a society of different people. And we do not have to forget that the first and the most important education goes from the family.
From the other side when children study in England - they can speak English fluently. And if your child goes to an elite boarding school, and you pay a lot of money for that, you suppose that he or she gets the best education. You are sure that people working there are qualified professionals who will look after the child all day long. Also, you have got a lot of free time without children. It is the time to earn much money you need for such schools.
To sum up my words I have to say that it is hard to choose the right way of education but everybody must do it.

Have to agree with the thoughts of the writer. Education is the most important thing in today's world. It provides you with teaching skills that prepare them physically, mentally and socially for the world of work in later life.
But it depends on a child, who wants to study. If the child does not want to study he can not study at any elite or valuable school or in England.
And I think it'll be better in any situation we can manage our children as parents to choose the right way of learning and as a teacher we should lead them to the best way of education.
Dear friend, I think the base for being better educated lies on the learners motivation, especially intrinsic motivation. I mean that if he or she really wants inside of him to get the education it is easier to him or her and the teacher to succeed in that education process
Maybe the learner's intrinsic motivation is the most important thing. But many other things are also very valuable.
Mila, the student, answers: Thank you for your comments.
So, you think that it doesn't matter where children get their education? Am I right?
I fully agree with you. If the child keens on drawing, what for he will learn a lot of for example Mathematics,which he or she can't understand. We have to know the child's preferences.
And it is very interesting for me what you prefer more for your children - the elite boarding school, the state shool or it doesn't matter?
I wanted to say the same things but I couldn't find the words. Thank you for the useful answer,may be it will help me at the exam. Wish me luck on 4,June
