▶ Your Answer :Some people might think that there are lot of things to gain by academic studies than participating in club activities. However in my opinion, it is better to joining club activities than academic studies. There are two reasons for this. First of all experience which gained by active or not typical way can be very valuable. Second by doing club activities you can also learn how to socialize with other people. To begin with, doing club activities makes opportunity to gain a lot of experience. I believe that experience is one of the most rudimental factors of success in this world. Imagine people only have textbook knowledge their views will be so narrow. By attending club activities like book club or sports assemblies you can not only gain diverse experience but also broaden horizon of the world. In this sense, having time by joining club activities is beneficial. To give an anecdote, when I was a kid I used to not participate in club activities. However, my homeroom teacher told me to enter the club activities whatever I want. I found out that taking a part in club activities made me to have responsibilities and self-confidence. Likewise people will be able to learn about anything that they didn’t know before by having club activities. It is evident that having club activities are beneficial. On top of that, joining club activities enables you to mingle with other people. The meaning of success completely changed compared to the past. If it was merely focusing on one’s own ability, now it is different. Along with your own ability, it is crucial to have people who can lend you a hand when you are in trouble. In this sense, maintaining amicable relationship with others can be useful. For example, my grandfather was an foremost construction enterprenuer in 1980 in Korea. When he was a kid, he attended school clubs as much as he can. Since he wanted to make a lot of friends to socialize with, he made a lot of friend and after he graduated school, he made up his own company with his friends. Running company was not easy, and every time he needed for help his friends always helped my grandfather’s difficulties that he faced. This is an exact example of having benefits from club activities. To sum up, joining club activities enables you to socialize with other people. Moreover, club activities let you make special relationship with other people. In this regard I firmly believe that having club activities has good influence for the reasons I mentioned above. |
