TPO 40.

Some parents offer their school-age children money for each high grade (mark) they get in school. Do you think this is a good idea?

No one can deny that there are both positive and negative aspects of rewarding children with money for performing well in their academics. if I were forced to choose, I believe that students should be rewarded with money for obtaining a high grade in school. I firmly believe that the students would benefit, if they were rewarded with money for their academic achievements due to several reasons, and I will develop these ideas in the subsequent paragraphs.

To begin with, offering money to school children for achieving high marks in test will instill in them , a sense of incentive for performing well. it will help the kids understand that they are being rewarded for their hard work and achievements, and hence, motivate them to perform well in their future examinations. rewarding the children with money will also give them the freedom to make their own choices and decide to buy whatever they want with the money, and hence, allow them to understand importance of financial management. I have to admit that my opinion on this subject is strongly influenced by my own personal experiences. For example, since I was a kid, my parents would always reward me with toys or money for performing well in my tests. this culture of rewarding motivated me to study well and put in longer hours of work to improve my scores. it helped me alleviate the pain and endurance during exam time, since, I knew that performing well would result in me being awarded with money. Moreover, as I got into higher classes, it helped me cope up with studies much better than the other students who had not put in the same effort as me during their childhood. For this reason, I believe that parents should reward their kids with money for performing well in their academics. if my parents had not rewarded me regularly for my hard work, I wouldn't have realized the importance of studying well.

Secondly, monetizing students' achievements in school will help the students in realizing how the real world works. since, the world runs on money, the students will understand the importance of money and the role money plays. students will realize that, in order to earn money, it is important for them to work hard and put in their best efforts, otherwise, they cannot succeed in life. Furthermore, it will also prepare the kids for their future roles in various fields of work. Drawing from my personal experience, my cousin's parents always bought him gifts and toys from a very young age, only if he scored good marks. one time, when my cousin performed poorly in his test, his parents did not bring him any gifts, though, he was very persistent and made a fuss. this example helped him realize that he would be rewarded only if he performed well. Therefore, it also helped in his career development and is now the youngest CEO of a multi-billion dollar company. if his parents hadn't helped him realize the importance of hard work through rewarding him, he wouldn't have peaked well in his career.

In light of the above mentioned reasons, I strongly believe that students should be rewarded with money for obtaining high grade in their school or college since, it provides them an incentive to perform well and also motivate them to work hard.

---------------------
Write the essay in 30 minutes.
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
