Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is better to be a member of a group than to be a leader of a group. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
In recent times, there has been a widespread debate on whether people should be a leader in a group or not. While some of them prefer to be a member of a group because they will be away from taking huge responsibilities, I hold the opposite view. Personally, I think it is better for people to become leaders in their community.
To begin with, being a leader allows people to improve several skills. They can learn how to be a good listener or how to solve complex problems. For instance, when I was the leader for my class at university, I improved many skills that I did not have before. One of these skills was being an active listener. At first, when I took the position for being a leader, some of my classmates were giving me suggestions in order to improve and organize a study group. However, I did not respond to them because I felt at that time I’m the one who should give ideas not my colleagues. Therefore, I did not succeed as a leader in my first year and many students did not like my attitude toward them because I used to ignore their ideas most of the time. However, when my friend Rana said to me “leaders are a good listener”, she opened my eyes and she let me look to the leadership from a different aspect. Thus, during my second year, I forced myself to listen more and talk less. This process helped me to succeed as a leader because whenever I notice some weakness in my skills I try to overcome this struggle and learn new skills.
Adding to the previous point, being a leader increase the person opportunity to relate well to people. Most leaders have to communicate with other people in order to organize certain events. For example, when I was a leader at the university, I used to contact more than five professors a day. Therefore, most university’ professors know me because I used to talk to them frequently. Furthermore, When I graduated I was able to get many recommendations from them and that helped me in my future career.
In conclusion, I encourage individuals to become a leader in their societies rather than being just a member.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
