Describe a period of time from your studies that was the most difficult for you so far. You should say:
- When it was
- Why was it hard
- What you were doing at that time
I would like to talk about my last school year. It was really diffucult due to enormous amounts of homework I had to do and all the exams I had to prepare for, so I studied hard, having no time to goof around. Moreover, I forgot a lot of things from the school curriculum, that’s why I had to do a lot of revision. But despite the tough preparation, I managed to set aside some time to rest and interact with my friends and family. After all, my efforts were not in vain. I passed all the exams well and was admitted to the university of my dream.

As for me, every teacher should be able to catch student’s attention. It is very important to make your subject interesting to the others… Also, teacher should be a subject specialist and a kind, helpful person..
What are some pros of studying on a distance learning course?
To be honest, I think it’s very advantageous to study in such way… It gives you more time flexibility, especially if you have a job… Not to mention that it is fairly cheap, compared to face-to-face classes
Does everybody get equal opportunities to study?
Definitely not. I think it really depends on a country you live in. Moreover, it depends on your financial capabilities. Some schools and universities are just too expensive. Only a small fraction of people can afford to study there.
