Opinion Essay 1
Unfortunately in today’s society there are
many people who cannot read, write or even
do arithmetic. I strongly believe that, although
subjects such as Art and Music are obviously
important, English and Math are the most
fundamental part of our education.
In the first place, the ability to read and write
and to do simple calculations gives you the
necessary tools to deal with everyday matters.

For example, being able to read and write
allows you to communicate and express
yourself clearly. Moreover, you unquestionably
need basic maths for such daily chores as
doing the shopping, paying your bills and
managing your money effectively.
Furthermore, it is essential to have a good
knowledge of English and Maths in order to
find even the simplest job. Reading, writing
and mathematical skills are the minimum
requirements that most employers demand
and they must therefore be developed at
school.

On the other hand, it can be argued that
Art and Music are just as significant as
English and Maths these days. For instance,
learning how to draw or play an instrument
can introduce a child to a whole new world.
In addition to this, subjects such as Art and
Music can provide children with a well-
rounded education rather than just basic
skills.

All in all, though, it seems to me
that English and Maths are vital
subjects. Unless they learn to read,
write and do arithmetic, people may
have difficulties coping with even
the simplest tasks in everyday life
and getting ahead in their life and
work.
