My second TOEFL essay

Individual learning vs. group learning

There are two major categories into which methods for study can be classified - individual study and group study. Two methods are at similar way important for me and I use both. I prefer to choose one according to my actual purposes, because each of method has its own qualities, strengths and weaknesses and can be more or less effective for different goals.

Human is social being and social knowledge have to be studying in groups. Group study offers members a chance to discuss the problems and exchange opinions with each other. In this process students can clarify their misunderstandings and strengthen their understandings of particular knowledge. By studying together, they can communicate with each other about their methods of learning different subjects thus each person can find the best way  to learn a subject with the help of the group. Undouptedly, involving with different people can strongly widen one's horizon, mature one's thoughts and enrich one's personality. Study in group must be chose when it is necessary to develop teamwork spirit.

When you study some subject that are hard to understand, such as math or physics, you need to concentrate on them. That requires a quite environment without distractions. Studying alone can provide that. Furthermore, studying alone forces you to think. When you face some questions hard to solve and there is no other people around you, you have to think of the questions hard and try your best to solve them. This gives you an opportunity to improve your ability to deal with problems by yourself. Another advantage of studying alone is it can make you think independently and have your own opinions without somebodies interference or suggestions.

Though studying with friends can help to solve questions faster and improve your friendship, however study alone get the proper sense of what your weaknesses are and what strength, so you can get to improve your weakness and in the real world an individual is confronted with situations that a person is responsive individually and a person can acquire such a sense of responsibility only through working on his or her own.
