Group work is important and often organized in the English class. These days we had a 1  on whether group work is useful to improve English.

Some of my classmates think it is a great way to improve English 2 we can talk freely during class to exchange ideas. At the same time, it's a good chance to learn from each other. 3 , some students disagree. They think it wastes too much time. And someone may be afraid of 4 mistakes, so they keep silent all the time.

In my opinion, I like the way we study. It is very interesting and useful. Also, it makes our classroom 5  and students active. We can learn a lot.
