▶ Your Answer :
Some people might think that university and high school should teach students about specific careers and fields instead of general subjects. In my opinion, however, teaching only specific careers instead of general subjects is not good idea: most students want to learn general subjects in general school and learning general subjects is beneficial to develop students’ potential.
To begin with, most student who go to general high school or university want to learn general subjects rather than just learn about specific careers. Generally, those who want to learn about specific fields in an early age go to the special institutions or schools specialized in specific fields. For example, those who are interested in cooking and want to learn about it will go to the special academy or school teaching about that field. Also, students who want to start their career in engineering go to the vocational institutions or schools. However, most other students prefer to learn more about general subjects to experience various things and find their aptitudes. Therefore, just teaching specific careers is not desirable for most general students.
In addition, learning general subjects are helpful to develop students’ potential. It is generally said that most general subjects are composed of stuffs helping students to experience and develop various aspect of their ability. For example, by learning music and arts, students could understand how different people express things differently. Also, they could have chance to look things from a different point of view. In language classes, they learn how to communicate others more effectively. Furthermore, by learning foreign languages, they could experience different culture and customs, which are also beneficial when they have their jobs in the future. In this way, we can say that learning general subjects is important for students to develop their potential.
In conclusion, for the above reasons, I definitely think that university or high schools do not need to teach just specific careers or fields instead of general subjects.
