Tablet PC is become more and more useful in many areas, such as school, business, organization, government etc. Using tablet to browse the Web is much easier than getting up, going to your desk, and booting up your computer. Even laptops, which are supposed to be mobile devices, can take a while to start, and they often get hot after a short period of use. There are many advantages by using tablet PC. For example firstly, the ability to capture and store personalized input such as diagrams, mathematical and scientific equations and similar forms of input. Secondly, Faster and effortless navigation via touch screen, by using finger touch than keyboard or mouse.

    English is a very important language. Nowadays, it is recognized as a universal language. Opportunities to travel around the world, to know about other cultures or to get a scholarship to study abroad are some of the advantages of learning English.
