Why learn English?

Learning to speak and write English well may be the best thing you can do to improve your life.

What are you interested in? Is it science? Music? Computers? Health? Business? Sports? Today's media — such as the Internet, television, and the press — give you almost unlimited access to knowledge about your favorite subjects. After all, we live in the information age, don't we?

There's only one problem...
Most of this knowledge is in English!!!

The spread of English is both a cause and result of globalization. It is predicted that within a few years there can be around 2 billion people learning English — nearly a third of the world’s population.


I would like to give you some reasons why learning English is so important. So, YOU..-have access to almost all knowledge on the Internet;
-read books in English on any subject;
-read the press - only English-language magazines and newspapers can be bought in every part of the world;
-enjoy English-language music more. Music is much better if you can understand the words;
-watch international television networks, such as CNN International and NBC. They broadcast news much faster, and more professionally, than smaller, national networks. And you can watch them everywhere in the world;
-watch American and British films in the original;
-communicate with people all over the world;
-travel more easily. Communicate with people wherever you go — English is spoken in more than 100 countries. Ask directions, have a conversation, or... ask for help. Who knows, maybe English will save your life someday!;
-put "excellent knowledge of English" on your CV . Speaking English is a tremendous asset for your professional career;
-gain technical knowledge. English is the language of technology, especially high technology like computer science, genetics, and medicine. If you're going to read about technology, you'll probably have to do it in English;
-use your computer more effectively. Most computer applications are in English, so you will understand them better — and become a better employee;
-learn new skills for your job.

English is not only useful  ... IT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD!!
