    Here are 3 opinions using opinion-marking signals: 1. Personally, I believe in some superstitions (pamahiin) as they provide guidance and wisdom from our ancestors. 2. In my view, face-to-face classes are better for learning as the interaction with teachers and classmates aids comprehension. 3. From my perspective, people who smoke in non-smoking areas are inconsiderate of others as secondhand smoke can negatively impact health.
