1. Task 2
A very good morning ladies and gentleman. It is a great honour for me to give a brief speech
on the importance of education. Education is essential for each individual as it can lead us
to a better future. However, the major problem is the different standard of education in our
country, Malaysia.
Education plays an important role in providing us with knowledge. It helps us to interpret
things rightly and apply it in real life. It doesn’t mean that education is only limited to lessons
in classes but education can also be obtained from lessons taught by life. Only with
education, a person can gain knowledge.
Apart from that, we can build good manners through education. Education helps to build a
person’s characters as it teaches the right behaviour. It is also important in developing a
person’s characters which can make a person to be more civilized and matured. In short, a
good education can make a person to be more human.
As we all know, “Education is a key to success.” It gives us knowledge of the world
around us, while opening doors to brilliant career opportunities. Education builds confidence
to make decisions, to face life, and to accept successes and failures. The best way to reach
career success is to map out a strategy and set goals. People nowadays focus more on the
quality of their jobs because usually educated people earned higher salaries. All of us need
money to buy necessities and desirables. Only through a good education, an individual will
be offered and employed for a job with a high payment.
Lastly, education is important for the progress of nation which means we must equip
ourselves with a good education. We should never neglect education and we can be called
as unwise if we do so. Although education is not listed as the basic needs of human, we
have to realize this because we are the assets of our country and the future of our country is
safe in the hands of the educated society.
In conclusion, education is self-empowerment . It helps us to tap into talent, so that you
may be able to sharpen your skills. It is important for everyone to have education in life.
Thank you for lending me your attentions.
