Introduction
Why Must Master English for Your Brighter Future?
Do you think that mastering English is necessary for your future? Absolutely. It
is true that many countries in the world speak English. As English is the key to
the international communication, I strongly feel that having good English
communication skill is a must. You will be challenged to speak English more if you
are involved in foreign activities, such as studying in foreign educational
institutions or working in the international industries or with the international
community.
Body paragraph
Currently, it is a fact that English is no longer as a foreign language for us.
Everyone often speaks English in their daily life and on certain occasions. Not
only adults who speak English frequently, but most children and teenagers also
speak English actively. Why are they doing this? It seems to me that they
realize the importance of speaking English for their future provisions. They
made English a necessity. Many school children aspire to study abroad nowadays.
They are looking for scholarships for this purpose. I believe that good English
proficiency will certainly make it easier for them to get the best score in English
certificates as a requirement for the admission to universities abroad.
Body paragraph
Today communication is so open. We get news and information easily and rapidly.
Most of the information materials in cyberspace are presented in English. This is
certainly a challenge for the internet users like us to be able to read and to
understand the content of news and information in English properly. How can we
understand them without difficulties? Personally, I think habit is the way. We
must get used to reading, listening, and speaking in English. Of course, it will be
difficult at first. But with the habituation that is repeated and carried out
consistently, ease will come upon us. Understanding English texts and
communicating in English will be easier if we often use the language.
The counter argument (Body Paragraph)
In my opinion mastering English does not mean that we are degrading our
mother tongue. The Ministry of Education and Culture issued a slogan: Prioritize
the using of Bahasa Indonesia, preserve our vernaculars and master foreign
languages. The mastery of English as the main foreign language is an absolute
these days, but of course we should not forget our local languages, particularly
Bahasa Indonesia.
Conclusion
To sum up if you want to get accepted in the universities abroad or have a

proper future career, mastering English will be very beneficial for you. Having
good English communication skill will also add the values of your academic or
professional competencies. As long as you still have a chance, learn and practice.
Decide the method that you think it fun for you and therefore you’ll get the
best result soon.
Your writing essay task
Please write an opinion essay writing on a Microsoft Word file. Your writing
should cosist of the parts of an opinion essay writing as I explained on the
PowerPoint file. It also should consist of at least 500 minimum words. The
most important thing is that your writing should be your own. Don't plagiarize!
Once I know that your writing is plagiarism, I'll ask you to rewrite and to
resubmit it.

one of these five:
1. Teacher’s role in my opinion
2. Learning history benefits
