I am writing to inform the problem which I am facing since recently in continue my part time job as typist in our office. Though I am engineering student going, I was able to manage my working hours and college hours as both are at different timing as well as located at the same area.

Unfortunately, in our college my entire department was shifted to our new building at Alexandra road which is 10 km far away from our office. I am afraid, whether I will be to continue my work and studies on time without any issue due to the lengthy travel time.

As you aware that I am definitely in need of a part time job in order to meet my financial expenses which is main reason besides this part jobs for the past few weeks.

It will be better enough for me if you could consider me to transfer my work location to another office branch next to Alexandra road and it was only 2 km away from my new college building.

I hope there will not be any issue on this as far I am doing my duty efficiently.

Yours faithfully,

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task2: Technological developments in the past few decades. Positive ? [4]

Day 2 - Tasks
There have been many technological developments in the past few decades, for example in telecommunications, transport and health.
What technological development do you think has been the most important? How has it changed people's lives? Have all the changes been positive?

Galloping advancement in science and technologies over the past few decades has taken dramatic leap forward in making our life much more convenient and easy. I believe, these substantial developments especially in the field of telecommunication which made the entire world interconnected and have been beneficial to people in many aspects.

To being with, internet plays a vital role in improving telecommunication via satellite networks. There are numerous amounts of gadgets which made our life comfortable in various means. For example, online booking and reservation of tickets, bill payments, internet banking, virtual classrooms etc... are really helpful nowadays in contrast to the previous old day situation like standing in a long queue for everything. Furthermore, social network websites and blogs has cast its grip in our life which enable people to know each other and sharing information irrespective of their geographical locations.

In addition, virtual classroom helps working professionals to pursue their studies after working hour just being in home with internet facility. It is common today to conduct video conference meeting from different region to do business globally.

However, while discussing the positive aspects of these enhancements, we can't overlook the detrimental effects which are spoiling our younger generation. Children and teenagers seem to be addicted to computer games and social networking which cause them to be away from their day-jobs. They are all fond of living in a virtual world rather than being social in the real world.

Kindly send me you valuable fesdbacks. Thanks.

To sum up, though there are disadvantages due to technological development, the benefits always overweigh them. Hence, instead of being away from utilising the upcoming changes in the technical world, it will be better to educate our young minds to distinguish the real life significance and the virtual world.

Writing Feedback / schools replacing sports and exercise classes with more academic [5]

Most of the schools are planning to replace sports and exercise classes with more academic sessions. What is your opinion on this change? How this change will affect children's life in your view?

Galloping advancement in science and technologies, it has proliferated huge volume of academic syllabus for school students in their curriculum. As a result of this substantial changes over the period, today many schools tend to focus increasingly on academic curriculum and reluctant in providing physical education for children. In my opinion, this trend is not going to aid students to have a proper mental and physical health.

Certainly, in this competitive world, students are working hard enough in schools to get admission in reputed universities plus their desired courses. Children are more often seems to be a book worm rather than participating in sports activities. They don't even have breath time to think about anything other than studies. The entire above said situation is due to hefty academic syllabus in schools, absence of physical education and prevailing competition among schools to secure top ranking in public exams.

On analyzing the possible results due to this present condition, following are the probable deterioration which has to avert. Children may get spoil both mentally and physically by avoiding sports activities. Beyond certain point, children are not able to cope up with the increasing pressure on studies. Until there is some mental relaxation by diverting them into sports, there are more chances for seeing poor performance in exams as well. Finally, the sheer objective of shape up our children's future become a paramount.

In order to avoid the above detrimental effects from happening, children should be engaged in physical activities, especially in sports. In-spite of studies, the absence of consistent participation in sports events during schools, it is highly impossible for children to have a good stamina and flexible body in later ages. Furthermore, adoption of sedentary life habit become common among teenagers which results in health issues such as premature ageing, obesity etc... Countries like Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom pay more attention in sports for their school children who led them to have appropriate physic and also excel in sports events all over the world.

To sum up, I would say, besides scoring excellent marks in academic side, children should have given chance to involve in more physical activities especially in sports and government should take measures to combat the present situation in our education system by revising the academic syllabus and make the physical education a mandatory one in schools.

Writing Feedback / Childcare training course for parents. Agree or Disagree? [7]

Childcare training course for parents can be the best way to update them to bring up their children. To what extent do you agree or disagree with it?

Children are the pillars of this brick and mortar society. Certainly, it is highly important to nurture the future generation in a better way. Some people find it hard to shape up their children, so they feel that parental education is the suitable possible solution for this issue. However others are not willing to accept this fact.

There are many reasons behind parent's lack of knowledge towards child care in the present age. There was a time when ladies merely taking care of their children alone, rather than going for work.

Mostly people were living under traditional way of extended family life style, whereas today people are much more isolated due to various circumstances. In addition, lack of mind set to gain clear perspective about family life and its bonding relationships.

Above said things are more common today and also the cause of the difficulties encounter by people in bringing up their children. Being a father of one year old baby boy and also belong to this modern age society, to be honest, it is highly impossible to change the mind-set of the of people and their way of living. Hence, the only possible solution is to accept the childcare training courses for parents.

Undoubtedly, there are much more benefits which everyone can obtain by taking parental courses. First of all, it helps parents to identify themselves about their innocents towards parenting. Secondly, it educates every parent to equip their children in a better manner. As a result of all these benefits, people can enjoy self-satisfaction by admiring at their children's proper growth and wellness.

As a whole, I would say, the objective is to lay better foundation for children's future right from the beginning. There is no matter about the way, how parents acquire knowledge to light up their children adequately. It could be either by experience or through parental training. Parents should realize their responsibilities and act accordingly for the betterment of future young generation.

Writing Feedback / Should children spend their free time on school work? IELTS [9]

Some people believe that children are given too much free time. They feel that this time should be used to do more school work. How do you think children should spend their free time?

There are people who perceive that children are having much more leisure hours as a whole in general and insisting to use those times to do work related to their studies. I agree with the view, it is however, the leisure hours can spend in a different ways, so that children able to realize their social responsibility and hidden potential.

Besides, academic curriculum, students should be encouraged to participate in building activities which will help them to understand the significance of unity. In addition, schools can initiate certain social awareness programs and engage student's volunteers to participate in order to simulate social awareness and their responsibility among entire student community. Apparently, these activities facilitate to lay better foundation for our future generation and in the same way utilizing their precious time in a fruitful manner.

Furthermore, children are capable of grasping the things in gallop. Eventually, encouraging children to learn extra-curricular activities such as dance, music and sports are the best feed for their free time. For example, countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and China organized student sport community centers, in order to improve their sports skills which led them gain more medals in Olympics, common wealth games etc...

There are always be supporters and critiques for all new initiatives, but the fact remains that though academic education is essential thing for students for their better career path, social awareness and exceptional talent add fuel to shape their personality to reach lime light in our society. In my opinion, it is our responsibility to align the students towards above said activities and aid them to make use of their leisure period in a productive way.
