WHY SHOULD I TAKE THE TIME TO LEARN ENGLISH BETTER?

Learning any language is fantastic, as you’ll get to know another culture and tradition better. Still, if you want to get the most out of mastering a language, you should learn English, the modern-day’s lingua franca. Here’s why:

COMMUNICATION ACROSS INTERNATIONAL BORDERS IS MAINLY IN ENGLISH

Not only is it the official language in 53 countries, but it’s also spoken by 400 million people worldwide. If you can use it, you’ll be able to converse with both native and non-native speakers, as it’s the most common second language in the world.

So if you travel to a foreign country, you’ll probably meet a lot of people who can speak English. It’s also common for plane announcements, train schedules, and emergency information to be translated into English, especially in countries that use a different alphabet.

IT’S THE LANGUAGE OF BUSINESS

The majority of cross-border business communication occurs in English, a dominant business language. Consequently, almost all international companies require their workers to be proficient in it.

Science and technology also rely on English, particularly in genetics, medicine, and computer science. If you’re proficient in this language, you’ll be able to communicate with foreign scientists and experts, visit academic centers abroad, attend international conferences, and read papers, books, and magazines about new scientific discoveries, etc.

IT OPENS THE DOORS TO TOP UNIVERSITIES

If you want to study abroad, English is a necessary tool as it’s the instruction language not only at universities in English-speaking countries but at many prestigious colleges around the world.

A diploma from a reputable university opens many job opportunities. So if you have these ambitions, English can change your life.

THE INTERNET IS PRIMARILY IN ENGLISH

More than half of a million people use the Internet every single day, and more than 50 percent of the world's most popular websites are in English.

If you can understand English, you’ll be able to read millions of pages of information that you might not otherwise have access to.

YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOWS ARE PROBABLY IN ENGLISH

A large number of top-notch films, books, and music are published or produced in English. Consequently, learning English will give you access to a wide range of entertainment and cultural experiences.

The pleasure of reading books, listening to songs, watching movies, and watching TV shows will no longer be reliant on translations and subtitles. On top of that, by enjoying movies and television shows in English, you can improve your English skills significantly.
