There are many benefits of doing part-time work. First of all, you can earn money. I work in a cafe last year so I could buy extra books and clothes. Secondly, you can get useful work experience. My best friend worked as a zoo assistant at weekends. She loves animals so she decided to look for a job where she could work with them. Finally, you can develop your communication skills. We spoke to people from different countries so we had lots of opportunities to practise our English. I think that part-time work is a very good experience for students so I agree with the statement.
