1 Is it a good idea for teenagers to take part-time jobs while still in school? Opinions about teenagers working while in school differ.
1) Are Kate’s and David’s opinions similar or different? (listening for the main idea)
2) What are the benefits of a part-time job? What are the disadvantages? What do Kate and David say?
Some adults ask if schoolchildren should have jobs. I say yes, they should. Some people worry that teens with afterschool jobs will not find time for homework. Actually, having a job helps teens to organise their time. The biggest reason why teens should be allowed to work is because it is a healthy way of earning money. You value things more if you are financially responsible for them.
Jobs are not only a good way to earn money but it is also a great way to learn and develop qualities that can help you to get on in life. Jobs introduce teenagers into the real world. Jobs teach teenagers responsibility along with respect. Jobs give teenagers confidence. My job (I work in a shop) has improved my communication skills. It has taught me how to speak to people professionally.
Kate
I think we don’t have to decide which is better, if a teenager should work or should not work. Every person has a different situation. If my parents don’t have a lot of money to pay for my education, I will work. When my friend wanted to be independent, he started to work.
Schools often don’t like their pupils to have part-time jobs. Teachers complain that these pupils don’t prepare their homework well and do tests poorly. Besides, many teens who work miss something others can experience. They don’t have time to take part in extracurricular activities and mix with people of their age.
However, part-time jobs can be useful experience for teens. Teenagers who can keep studying successfully have the right to take part-time jobs.
