Discussion Text 3: Advantage and Disadvantage of Students Taking a Part Time Job

Nowadays, many people think that college students should take a part-time job for several
advantages.

For one thing, it gives the students a chance to know the society to learn to be independent.
For another, they can also get financial reward and working experiences as well, such as
teaching or selling practice, which is helpful to their growth. Whats more, they can put what
they have earned into practice, and know their strong and weak points so that they can
improve their studies and personalities, which are beneficial in their later lives.

However, still many people think taking part-time job may have some negative effects on
students. In their opinions, it will take them much time and energy, and will affect their
studies as a result. Whats worse, some students may be so keen on making money that they
may neglect their studies in the end.
