Higher Education

Now we are in the modern and prosperous society, and almost people have higher education. In many years ago, it’s impossible to have higher education in that time because the ancient environment was very impoverished, they had no extra money to continue studying. For instance, my grandfather only studied in the elementary school. After graduating from elementary school, he was supposed to work immediately due to having no money. Fortunately, the time change constantly and we have innovative technology in recent years. So now people always can continue to study high education, and they may research more and more profound theory which they are interested.
My grandfather told me that we were extremely lucky than him frequently. The reason is that people can’t have higher education in my grandfather’s era. Owing to strenuous oppression of the government, the citizen was forbidden to have opportunities to study more, or even go abroad to have further education. But now every people have higher education, it’s a common phenomenon in the contemporary. Our economy is progress and we really have extra money to have higher education.
I think that the most essential reason is that people have to find superior position to have as large salary as possible, and the higher education is quite necessary. It’s basic qualification to have higher education for employee in the excellent company. Some company may hope that their employee can be a person who studies in the foreign country. It’s crucial that people have higher education in our society now, and it always has numerous benefits.
Therefore, everyone all have higher education because our economic flourish strongly. I know that we still have to know our goal which we pursue, and I think it’s very important. In fact, if you pursue higher education and have no idea why you do this. I feel that it’s really useless and unmeaning.

As a student who majors in English department, it is important to have basic English skills. I have learned English for about ten years, and I went to the English cram school when I studied in elementary school. Due to having a lot English courses, my many English teachers also taught me that how to improve our English skills, and especially writing in English. For me, I remember that my experience to learn to write English is numerous because I try a lot of methods to enhance my ability in English. After studying English department in Providence University, I hope that my English skills can be as great as possible, so I study English more hard. I know that it’s extremely crucial to have listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities in English. Therefore, I ask my friends who learn English very well and gain their suggestions to learn English easily and soon. There is hardest time to learn to write English, and I have no patience to write some English essays or compositions. I was so frustrated in that time, and I was even blamed by my private English tutors because of my poor English grammar. Fortunately, I have an aunt who studied in American and she said that she could teach some tips to write English well. I was quite excited and I thought that my awful writing in English could be improved. My aunt told me that I should read as many as novels or American literatures I could, and tried to realize the meaning rhetoric why the authors write these ways. I may read books in English not very often, so I usually didn’t know how to write English at first.
Now my writing in English is progressive, and I decide to study more and more techniques of writing in English. In the future, I must try my hard to concentrate on the every English Writing class. I also believe that I can handle many difficulties during that time.
