A good knowledge of art at school can therefore help children to develop extra skills which can be useful in later life.

Art is a popular subject with students because of its interactive and practical nature. The subject offers a ‘hands on’ creative experience that helps students to explore their own opinions and thoughts through a different medium. Everyone enjoys art in a different way…

2. “Everyone enjoys art in a different way…”Think about art. How is it often considered? What do you think art is? Give the definition of art based on your own experience (not the dictionary entry).

But you know your neighbor (he is also an artist) isn`t bothered with all these troubles. Go to his place to ask him for a piece of advice. Make a dialogue with your partner.
