Some students prefer to study alone - TOEFL Question

Some students prefer to study alone. Others prefer to study with a group of students. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer?

Study Methods

Everyone has their method to success in life. At school or university, success depends on how we study. Some students benefit a lot when they study with groups. Yet, I prefer to study individually because it helps me to concentrate more, and it helps me to build my personality.

Studying alone helps us to focus more in our lessons. For instance, I am a type of person who cannot comprehend my subjects unless I am alone. I can prepare my schedules, guidelines, exercises and go over them all. Moreover, we have a lot of subjects which require us to sit and study alone such as math, reading, and drawing. In my opinion, I can take advantage of every minute without wasting by studying alone.

Additionally, we are building our personalities when we study alone. For example, answering our homework alone encourages us to be more responsible and independent. Also, it motivates us to be accurate in our work in the future. Personally, when I fix my study plan with a specific time and finish it on time, it improves my ability in the future to become more precise and careful.

To conclude, there are many ways to study and it is our right to choose which is suitable for our characters whether alone or with group. In fact, I agree with the idea of studying a lone since it helps me to focus more and establish my personality. Success needs us to work hard and sacrifice more whether we choose to study alone or with group.

Yes, I think it is compatible with the conclusion, because in both places you talk about developing your personality.

You might want to add one more sentence to the end of the first paragraph. Make it a sentence that explains this:
Studying alone builds my personality, because __________.

Studying alone helps us to focus more in on our lessons. For instance, I am a ...

You did not make a mistake here, but I want to suggest something:
Also, it motivates us to be accurate in our work in the future. Personally, when I fix my study plan and successfully carry it out in the time I designated for it, it improves prepares me to apply time management and organizational skills in the future to become more precise and careful.

Hi Nesreen,

I'm a new member and my English language is still weak, So, my comment may be not valuable.

Everyone has their method

Isn't this a grammar mistake?

Kind regards,

Nohna,
You warmly welcome.Do not feel out of place as EF is a place to be on developing your communication skills.Anything formal you do here is highly helpful and appreciated.

Nasreen...
I heard that,when discussing about two things that are out to be compared and contrasted you should make sure that both of them are touched.Regarding your topic,you could also talk a little like one paragraph some people prefer group discussion but yet you discourage it.Come out with strong reasons and then summarize your essay with what you prefer and conclude.
