TOEFL ESSAY, THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS :D

Some students prefer to study alone. Others prefer to study with a group of students. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

During the high school, and more essentially in the at university, it is important fo find which a way of studying that fits more better with your personality. It is very relative personal and it depends of personal taste. In my opinion, I prefer to study with a group. I will try to explain why studying with a group is better than studying alone.

First of all, a group of people gives you motivation, energy and a lot of support. They explain help you when you have doubts and they cheer you up when you are close to giving up. When you are alone and you feel stuck with some topic it is very easy to get depressed or nervous. this These kind of feelings betray your confidence and then if you do not feel sure about yourself it is very easy to fail an exam.

Secondly, when you study with other people is a team work where you can teach what you know and you learn what you do not know. Sometimes, when you explain something you reinforce this knowledge in your brain, so, you never loose lose it. Alone it is impossible to have a retroalimentation (I don't think this is an English word) or feedback, it is just you and the books.

Thirdly, it is much more funny to study with a group. Sometimes it is easier to get distracted but if you have confidence (not sure that 'confidence' is the word you are looking for) with that people it will be possible to find time to study hard and have a break. When you are alone, you get bored and sometimes if you sleep less than eight hours you can get fall asleep on the books and never realize it.

To sum up, studying with a group has a lot of advantages. In From my point of view, the knowledge is absorbed faster and better when you study with a group than when you study by yourself.
