Currently, I decided to stop using Facebook. Then, I have seen I have more time to read books, meet friends, talk to my parents and learn something new. Before when I used Facebook, I always felt I was busy, I did not have enough time.
very experienced and skilled video

super and thanks
That's good
Great
I 'm from Viet Nam, I think social media that has two sides if we have positive thoughts ,social media helps us having lives better.For example we make friends with good people we will receive useful advice and improve relationships we can read good news in our country and oversea from websites on Facebook or watch videos from RUclips from our friends.Ofcoure we must choose them to watch we don't have enough time to discover good videos. I have learned english from Language Master on Facebook. Don't use social media like nonsense way we make it serves us useful. Thanks Spotlight so much.
Chi Nguyễn respect ✊🏾 ur opinion
i agree with you,that social media makes people communicate without real concern about your friends.Everybody can say "happy birthday" by sending a sticker.But to call on phone your friend and to say warm and sinceirely words is the true relationship. I think there are no emotions in social media and it is something just like hanging on smth.Thank you it was really interesting topic
After I heard all of this video, I decided to spend less time for using Facebook. I just use it for check my class in FB. And now, i feel better than before. Therefore i have free-time, instead of surfing the internet , i can read more useful book, hang out with my friends, learn some new programming. I truly feel regretted because se realizing this sooner. Many thanks for this video
I stoped use many apps that I think it is a waste of time, I feel better than before, I live my real life with a real people, I feel so good and I love myself more because there’s nothing can make me feel jealous of anyone I just focus on my life, on myself and on my relationship
It's really helpful..whenever I start my study...I put my phone on my study table which distracting me...so from today I decide that I stop using any of social media apps..but using sometime whenever it's very important then.. after all we r student basically our main work is study..
i am already stoped to using every social media from two months
thanks for this video
Facebook and other social networking sites can play a significant role in influencing one's behaviour when it comes to making choices. I have seen many people especially students decide who to vote for based on a candidate who gets more likes and they do not use their discretion while exercising their franchise. So, there is no gainsaying the fact that it is possible to influence elections in democratic countries like India. As social networking sites are a part of life now, it all depends on an individual on how to use them. Now and then I use Facebook to post some good information. In my view, social media is flooded with fake news and there is no way to stop the flow of misinformation at present. So, it is better not to depend on social media for correct information.
Thank You Spotlight for enlightening us about the positive and negative effects of social media.
For my opinion, i thinks that social media has two way : one way is the positive such as job , building a friend etc . The last one negative way. I often spend a lot of with Facebook just only scrolling screen , so I feel that lost production my self and my workplace.
Every thing in life (work,relation,trip...)contains advantages and inconvenients.Surely social media have positive effects and the same time present negative effects.People everywhere must benefit more and more from good effects ,and be careful from bad effects of social media.
Social media likes any thing we use it but we need control it, do not all allow it affects our lives and controls us if we can leave it for many hours that means good but if we on line all the time that means bad
I think it is nice to have social media because it has so many good ness and bad ness
Thankyou mam for this wonderful class

Marcos Silva Brazil Ohh god my favourite Palace 😇😇😊
I decided to stop use Facebook 2 months ago

I really like this video it's very useful
Thank you for the opportunity to speak about social media. It is very important to us but when we use it in useful ways as to ues at education and other things as businesses or even useful relationships. If that or not
I loved this topic, about 5 years ago I was always on facebook, currently I am used to watch video in English on you tube, in my opinion es the best social media for practice English, in fact this program is useful for me.
Thanks for many interesting programs. Greeting from Ecuador.
I think this video is right about 2 sides of social media. I recognizing some envy sense in my mind when i see the friend's picture about good thing or perfect life on Facebook, it's so negatively. We should using social media by good side.
In my opinion social media like Facebook is good app but I think it’s a little procrastination and wasting time sometimes I really get headache when I use it to much Facebook and I tried many times to leave it but I couldn’t even I delete but after three hours I installed again Because I couldn’t forget to not think about it and I downloaded again
I never had Facebook and I do not want a waste of time. but I really like reading Spotlight. Best regards to the Spotlight editorial team
In my opinion, the youtube is very important for me,because it's a great tool for education in house
there is both situation like benefits or problems. It completely depends on you that how you use it.
Use social only when we need
I agree with you, and thanks you for share😻😻
Thanks for for showing this side of the mirror, i have indeed decided to reduce the time i spend surfing on social media.
I think that social media we can use to interchange information about different themes ,but depent on ,what people need to know ,it is your option. Thanks
I think the social media can have good effects in our's lives, if everyone use them with sense and rensponsibility.
I m from pakistan .
Ur all points are best . I agree to u . But we use social media as just for our advantage or for limited time . In this way we cant waest our time thnk u .
Social media has let me meet persons that share my same interests and currently I belong to several groups.
I manager my relations with my family and friends in other way.
Thanks a lot for these interesting articles. Greetings from México.
I think social media is having negative effects more than positive effects.
Social media in my opinion like hangovers .we can spend more and more hours on social media websites like Facebook ,Instagram and chatting applications like messenger and we can't spend a little time with our family and our friends in the garden ,streets,cinema or a small picnic.
That is one of the social media's negative effects
Just here for my classtest tomorrow for improving my english.
I am happy to use RUclips and Whatsapp because above all, these two media are very useful tools.
Juan Lopez you say youtube and whatsapp whatsapp only msg will be sending not about information gether about it. But book as ablity skil knowledge extracurricular activities such as

I have been decided to stop using Facebook before watch this video. Because I find it so bad to use anymore. it is destroying our life's.
Despite wasting our time it has a positive aspects connecting people to each other.
You can get and follow great well-known people .
I stopped using Facebook but I still use Instagram but no that much and I like it more than Facebook although Instagram is a Social Media as what you just had said now about Facebook now it is not that addictive although it does affect some couples relationships have been through fights and I think that sometimes you are right that if you use too many social media and your parents/guardians/older siblings/wife/girlfriend will sever some depression it's true I'm saying its not I love using Social Media but not that addictive who agrees with me.
I hope some people have learned there lessons and understood what I said and what the video has told you.

My feelings about social media are contradictories. Sometimes I like and enjoy it, but in other occasions I hate it. I think social media is not bad or good for its own: we make it so or so...
Really it is so useful in our life

You can be connected with friends over long distances. You can recover friends. Like one of my acquaintance that found his son back over social media after years. You are never bored. You can lern languages. Like watching TV and like reading books it can be used for good and bad causes, it totally depends on how we use it.
What is your age your area adult person what i do which is correct whist is wrong all of you know so don't go your bad walk. It is a competition world, life is a race. Social media is only gether about information but book as a 100 teachers equal so own desicision good better
If I talk about Facebook it's waisting of time but we connect to each other's
📝💯
I really like the way you are using to make us learn the language along with rich discussion on social topics. It's interesting way to learn as topics like this are connected with everyone's life.
Please keep making more lessons like this. I hv subscribed this channel after watching this video lesson only.

Mai ke video against social media
Who watched this video on 1.5 x speed
?????????????
wwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaattttttttttttt
nice subject to talk about! Every single one of us need to start focous on how his time on social media is going. And what's all the positive and negative things. For me social media is useful in documentation my life beautiful memorise, and to comincate with my loved once. But it's horrible when it comes to the time, i could waste my whole day 'cause of the reels thing and stories and the whole posts i enjoy wasting time on it. I realised how it's bad for myself to let her wasting all this time on such a silly things insted of improving her. I could've achived many things so far if i didn't waste my time on instagram.
And now i deleted the app and i make a log in to my accounts every 3-4 days just to reply the messages and sometimes to post something. addition to i managed the "following" and let it include only my family and friends and useful accounts as learning english accounts.
And woah! This is one the best decision i've ever made. I still find problems to organizing my time and use it in good way but that's the thing i realised that i've the time i only have to know how to use it carefuly :)
- NOTE: as it shows i'm learning english or why i would be here. But i loved to asked that if you have the time i would love to know where did i messed up in what i wrote (:♡..
very good
