Some people may think that students who study abroad have more time for fun and less homework. But in fact, Grade 12 students in Canada are just as busy as students in China. In Canada, students have (pay) equal attention to all the tests and homework. To reduce (they) pressure from the important courses, like math and English, students will often choose one or two courses in the last year of high school. They are usually easier so that students can get a fairly excellent final grade.
Take me as example-I chose an interesting course, cooking and health. This course is aimed at (help) students develop a healthy lifestyle and diet. The (big) fun of this course is that students can experience cooking. I believe this is the reason why there are a large number of students the waiting list. Teachers always let students decide they want to cook. Students (divide) into four groups with six people, and we enjoy the cooking time a lot.
After attending this class for more than three (month), I believe it's not as easy as others think it is because it requires basic knowledge of science, life skills and practice.
Some people might think they are just for fun and don't need to be taken (serious). But I believe it is a great way to forget our stress and I do learn a lot from those elective courses.
