Maths and English are More Important than Art and Music

This is a piece of writing that we did in my evening class.

For students to get good jobs in the future, they need to learn many things. They are compulsory subjects in all high schools. We use them in our daily life. Without learning to read and write correctly, people will have many difficulties. Maths and English are more important subjects than any other subjects.


In the first place, people who are good at English have better communication skills than others. Moreover, without maths, you can’t study engineering. In addition to that, maths is the basis to other courses that students can do. Many inventors were good at maths.


Furthermore, studying English and maths can make students smart and have a high IQ. They are important to get good jobs after graduating from university. English and maths are the minimum reqirements to do certain courses.


On the other hand, some people argue that learning music is hard and not everyone can do it. People need to have talent first before learning to play an instrument. Some famous artists and musicians can make a lot of money through their music and art. Music is important because people can feel it around them. It makes you relax and forget about the stresses of life. Music can make people less aggressive.


All things considered, I strongly believe that although music and art are important, learning English and maths is more essential in real life.
