Certificate English | 10.02.2021 Many people feel that teamwork doesn’t matter, because one may do a better job on their own and I somewhat agree with them. It seems to me that more and more teachers are trying to have students focus on teamwork. While I agree there are some advantages in group projects – finishing the work faster, socialising with the people on your team – I can also see some disadvantages – having opposite ideas to your teammates, not having a space to meet, having a group leader who won’t listen to others’ opinions. It is often said that teamwork is necessary in a sport. However, some people disagree. In individual sports, such as tennis and swimming, teamwork isn’t required, unless in a team competition, where competitors need to communicate and support each other. It is true that, in an office, teamwork makes everything go smoother. For example, journalists can team up on writing an article, so that they are able to complete it on time. That way, they share opinions and write an article much better than a single journalist would. Finally, it is clear to me that there are many advantages in teamwork.
