Explanation Writing

 Have you ever wondered why schooling is such a big part of your life? Have you ever thought it was just a big waste of time? Well let me explain to you why it’s so important and why we all need it. 


One of the key benefits of schooling is it will help you develop problem solving skills. Also the education system will help you be independent and make good life choices. Life choices are so important because as you become an adult you will encounter a lot of difficult and challenging situations. Another thing that's good about having a good education is it will land you a really good job will provide you with good team work skills, participation, etc.


As said above education will land you a well paid job, and with a well paid job you will have the financial resources to invest in business, afford to buy your dream car, live in an amazing neighborhood, and support your family's future. A good education is also very useful for paying stuff like, bills, taxes, and even student loans. 


I hope now you realize how important schooling is for everyone.
