Q. How successful would you say these measures have been?

A. These measures are successful to some extent but if I present it in figures, it
would only a few percentages than the actual progress we expect. For
instance: more than three thousand hospitals are required throughout the country
whereas only 45 hospitals have been established in the last one year.
Q.Are there other ways people can learn about history, apart from at school? How?
A. Definitely, there are many other ways people can learn about history and that
varies from reading books till travelling to historically important places.
First books offer us an excellent opportunity to learn about the world history. If
someone is interested in learning the History, he has countless options to read
famous and resourceful historical books. Apart from that, many television
channels, likeHistory Channel, National Geography Channel, Discovery Channel
etc. offer excellent documentaries on history that can be very helpful for learning
about world history. Libraries and museums could be other two important resources
for people to learn about history. When people travel to different places, they can
also learn about the historical significant of such places.
Q. What method of learning works best for you?
A. I prefer to work in a pair for the complex topics and subjects. The group
discussion, in particular, works best for me. When I study in a group I can discuss
my views and learn opinions of others. Thus the discussion is always helpful and I
can better perform in an exam and remember the details for a long.
Q. How easy is it to find a place to live in your country?
A. Well, it depends on how much money you are able to spend and where exactly
you want to live. Of course, if you have the money, it’s very easy to find a place to
live. However, house prices have been on the rise in recent years, and it is becoming
difficult for young adults to buy their first homes, or even to pay rental prices in some
areas, particularly in central London.

Q. What role do you think extracurricular activities play in education?

A. Extracurricular activities sharpen the minds of students and enhance their
creativity. Activities that require physical movements keep their body fit and thus the
importance of extracurricular activities are immense. It is often experienced that kids
who have interests in sports and games outperform the others in many fields.
Extracurricular activities like singing, debating, painting can be very handy in terms
of career enhancement. Students who have extracurricular activities possess better
leadership and social activities. Finally from my experience, I can say that such
students have better knowledge about the world than students who are solely
focused on academic lessons.
Q. Do you think that people become better communicators as they get older?
A. I think that people’s ability to communicate does improve with age because
generally speaking, people get more confident as they gain more experience of life
and I believe that confidence is a major factor. On the other hand, some people may
become more self-conscious as they got older, particularly when they reach certain
stages in their life such as adolescence. For me personally, I feel that I’m a better
communicator now than when I was younger.
Q. Do you agree that it’s important for people of different ages to do leisure activities
together?
A. I think in some cases it could be important for people of different ages to do
leisure activities together. For example, parents or even grandparents can enjoy
doing fun things with their children or grandchildren, like, you know, things that don’t
require a lot of physical ability such as playing games, reading or cooking. I
guess that sometimes it is very important for older people to do things with younger
ones, especially more difficult skills that need to be taught like … I don’t know …
martial arts or playing a musical instrument.
Q. What is the most impactful piece of technology in our lives?
A. In my point of view, the Internet is the most important technological advance of
our time… It gives us so many new opportunities to discover anything we want about
our world! You just need to boot up your computer an go online… And with wireless
networks at home and public Wi-Fi hotspots we can do it easily and almost
everywhere.

Q. Which environmental problems are people most concerned about in your

country?
A. I think people in my country are most concerned about future shortages of fresh
drinking water, which I suppose is both a result of poor water management and
general global warming. I think everyone is feeling the effects of the latter problem
which is causing us to experience more extreme temperatures, for example, much
colder winters and much hotter summers. The long hot summers are particularly
worrying in the south of the country where there is a real risk of droughtdue to the
consistent lack of rainfall.
Q. Do you think that the advance of technology has improved standards of education
in schools?
A. I think the growth of the internet has had a major impact on current teaching
methods and I’m sure general standards have improved as a result. I strongly
believe that the motivation for both learning and teaching has increased because
ofthe phenomenal amount of information now available to both students and
teachers. On the other hand, due to a danger of information overload, some people
may be put off using technology in the classroom, wishing for a return to more
traditional methods.
Q. Is there a system of free state education in your country?
A. In my country there is a state education system offering free education for children
from 3-18, although parents still have to pay for food, materials, school trips and
other extra-curricular activities. This is only one part of the system,
however,because there are also private schools and semi-private schools, which are
partly funded by the state. So on the one hand it appears that we do have free state
education, but in actual fact it isn’t available to everyone because places are limited.

Q. Do you think that gaming has a bad influence on children?

A. Many people argue that gaming has a negative influence on the young
generation. This actually depends on what type of video games they play and how
much time they spend playing them. If you spend an appropriate amount of time
playing video games, it’s good for relaxing and releasing stress. But if you play too
much, like more than 2 hours a day, it’s a waste of time and you won’t have enough
time to do other tasks.
Q. In your opinion, is writing a good career choice then?
A. There are many famous authors like Stephen King who has written books for
decades and J K Rowling who created Harry Potter. They have had amazing careers
and have also made a lot of money in the process. On the other hand, for every
Stephen King there are probably a 10,000 failed writers and even some of his books
have not been well received. It’s a tough industry because so many people want to
become writers and so it’s extremely difficult to write something original and even
then it’s not guaranteed to sell.
Q. Does fame generally bring happiness to the individual?
A. I think that becoming famous tends to make people content for several reasons.
The first is that fame is linked to success, so people will feel that they have achieved
their ambitions and made it in life. Secondly, fame brings wealth enabling people to
afford expensive items and to live the high life, which is something that many of us
dream about. On the other side, fame can make people extremely unhappy,
especially in terms of the unwanted invasion of privacy from the media. Also, I think
that the expression ‘money can’t buy happiness’ is very true.
Q. Why people choose to become teachers?
A. For some people, it is their dream and passion to become a teacher. For others, it
is just a job and they are teachers because they have not got any other better
professions. For others, teaching is a noble profession and they never leave this
profession even though they can switch their jobs. In many societies, people honor
and respect those who are in the teaching profession and that is why many people
chose to become teachers.

Q. Do children nowadays love reading?

A. I’m afraid not. Children nowadays prefer to play games on iPod and in other
gaming devices, rather than reading books.In our childhood, reading books was the
main activity among children but nowadays children have electronic gadgets and
internet connection to spend time. So they read less on an average than our
generation.
Q. Do you think it was different for your grandparents?
A. I think it was not much different. The electronic gadgets would be the latest
additions, though. During my grandparent’s era, the symbols of status were land
ownership, political influence, big houses, and expensive cars – which were quite
similar as they are today. I guess the so-called status symbols are quite materialistic
in our society and that’s why it was not much different for my grandparents as well.
Q. How would you improve the public transport system?
A. I think the government should provide some video cameras and other means of
security inside these public transportations, in order to reduce the crime rate, and
they should also improve the vehicle maintenance and replace some of the old
ones. If I get the chance, I will appoint more security guards in those public
transpiration systems. I would also improve the quality of those transportations and
would introduce many new vehicles.
Q.What are the qualities of a good leader?
A. I think it is really important for a good leader to have integrity in his life. As he
leads an institution or a company, he should lead by example. Hypothetically, when a
boss wants all of his employees to come to work on time, he should not come late.
And then a good leader would not only give orders to his team. He should be open
minded and listen to the ideas of his teams. With this kind of attitudes, many people
would respect and admire him.
