Many students work while attending university for many different reasons. It can be difficult to balance work and school, but it can certainly be done. Actually,there are many advantages such as earning money,a new experience, development of the organization skills. However, you should take into account some disadvantages, for instance, the lack of time and stress. Generally speaking,students can benefit a lot from part-time jobs. The first advantage is that students can earn money. Taking a part-time job,in this point,students can pay a part of their living cost,and at the same time relieve their parents` burden. Some young people have to earn money on their own to pay the tuition while others just earn money to pay for their expenditure or satisfy their desire. Moreover, earning money also help students have a sense of independence. It is great when you earn your own money while not having to rely on others to give it to you. Second, another advantage is that students can acquire more experiences and polish their skills when taking part-time jobs. For example, if someone enjoys teaching, working part-time as a tutor may help him or her improve teaching skills and gain experiences. Third, it can help students develop their organizational and multi-tasking skills. They will have to get used to holding a job and attend the university simultaneously. It is the chance to learn time management. Working will force a person to complete work ahead of schedule and learn to manage their time appropriately. According to the article “5 Time Management Tips for Working Students”, there are some simple ways to manage your time easily, for instance not to waste your time on the Internet, to limit social activities and others. On the contrary, there are some disadvantages, too. First of all, it is the lack of time for focus on studies. There is a high possibility that students will have trouble finding time to study. It is obvious that if you have a job, you automatically have less time to do the rest. Students doing part-time jobs are busy running between the working place and the university .As a result,they get exhausted, and even skip classes to have a sleep after hard work. Moreover, they may experience stress with a difficult or time-consuming project. Also, it can endanger the health. In conclusion,nothing is perfect. Maintaining a job while attending school is not for everyone. A self-motivated and well-organized person may find it easier to balance work and school, while another really needs to concentrate to do well in studies may find having a job is too difficult. So all of us should think twice before taking part-time jobs. And when we take it, we can’t ignore our other duties.
