Does a Student Need Private Tutoring?
A recent investigation shows that about 70 percent of middle school students in cities have private tutors. Such a popular practice indicates that people are [1]attaching greater importance to education. [2]However, private tutoring [3]has both advantages and disadvantages.
Many parents have no enough ability or time to help their children in study. Private tutoring is a good solution to this problem. [2]In addition, private tutoring is usually one-to-one, so the teacher can know [4]the weak points as well as [4]the strong points of the pupil, and thus teaching is, [5]in most cases, directly to the point. [2]On the other hand, its own disadvantages.
[2]For one thing, it takes up so much of the pupil’s time that he can hardly find rest and entertainment. [2]For another, some tutors, [5]busy “shuttling” from one family to another, [6]tend to neglect their teaching duties as tutors.
[7]Considering the above-mentioned, I think [3]the disadvantages of private tutoring outweigh its advantages.
In my opinion, greater emphasis should be laid [8]on classroom teaching and practice, [8]on the improvement of teaching quality [8]and on the tapping of the pupil’s potential. [9]Only in this way can a new generation be healthily brought up.

【亮点点评】
[1]“非常关注”。
[2]过渡衔接词语，使文章条理清晰、衔接紧密。
[3]“有利有弊”。“弊大于利”。
[4]“弱点”。“优点”。
[5]插入语。
[6]“倾向于，往往”。
[7]用于得出结论。considering“考虑到，鉴于”。
[8]and连接的平行结构。
[9]“only+状语”位于句首，引起句子部分倒装。
