Imagine that a professor requires students to learn as much as possible about a subject in a short period of life. Is it better for the professor to require students to work together in a group or is it better to require students to work alone?
In this modern day and age, education plays a critical role in preparing students for their future lives and teachers try to provide children with the most efficient teaching methods to help pave the way for them to forge a path forward to a fulfilling life. The importance in this regard often leads to serious controversies such as will the student's learning improves if they are asked to work in close tandem together or rather it is better to leave them to learn everything on their own in a limited time? Personally, though, I utterly subscribe to this idea that perhaps a combination of both works the best. To discuss this, there are several perspectives, two of dominant which are discussed in detail in the following.
First and foremost, the advantages of teamwork are almost proved to everyone and group discussions can help students broaden their horizons and enhance their knowledge on a certain topic. In case individuals encounter problems in the process of learning, they can ask for their peers' help. This would save them a significant amount of time since specific academic materials are sometimes too complex to be absorbed in a relatively short time. A recent research conducted at the Sharif University of Technology yields several interesting statistics, in one of which, it is stated that the remarkable four out of five students who were put in different groups and were asked to help each other learn a certain academic topic, confirmed that they have perfectly reaped the benefits of this group work and the improvements in their grades validates this claim. The results, paint a vivid portrait of the importance of teamwork in enhancing learning.
On the other hand, in order to gain profound knowledge on specific subjects, students should spend some time on their own, thoroughly evaluating all sides of an academic subject to be assured that they have almost mastered the topic and it has been totally established in their brains. Most of the primary school's students often feel ashamed to ask their colleagues to explain something which has been ambiguous to them over and over again as they feel like this might leave a bad impression on other students, making them think that person is not clever enough. As a consequence, they might lie to their peers that everything is clear although this may not be true at all. Therefore, it is recommended that teachers tell their students in case they have any problem and they don't feel comfortable sharing this with their colleagues, your teacher will always be there for you and you should not worry about it at all
To wrap it up, contemplating on what was discussed above, there are both advantages and setbacks in requiring students to work in groups. Although it is no secret that teamwork can be extremely beneficial and enhances the process of learning as the students would step up and help each other in case of problem, one should bear in mind that some students, especially those in primary school, might feel too shy to ask their peers help them with something because they don't want to exhibit a not-so-much-bright character. It is suggested for the teachers to tailor a thoughtful teamwork plan which also covers the aforementioned concern.

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.
