Some people say that the Internet has improved the effectiveness of education. Indeed, this global network provides many advantages to educate not only adolescents but also children of preschool age.

In my opinion, firstly it provides a lot of different materials: video tutorials, visual aids and many others. Secondly, it allows a teenager to consider the theme that he didn't understand. Thirdly, the student can find additional information in the Internet on various topics. At last, the Internet contains numerous video recordings that develop young children. All of these facts actually help to improve the efficiency of education.

But some people consider great disadvantages of the world wide web. Some sites have a huge impact on the psyche of people, because they contain encoded information. Also teenagers spend a lot of time in social networks and online games, which spoil their eyesight and distract from studying.

I think that such networks as "Vkontakte", "Twitter" and "Instagram" are of course useful. They support communication between people who are at great distances. People can find out a lot of different information in groups and communities. Some students communicate with people of different countries improving foreign languages.

Considering all the pros and cons of the Internet I am sure, that it opens many pathways for the development of one's personality. But in some cases it can have a negative impact on people.
