subject: 3 reasons why you should learn to speak English! [print this page] If you have been putting off learning the English language, I wanted to share three reasons why you should learn English as quickly as possible.
* English is the standard language
The English language has become a common language throughout the world. Take for example, India where there are hundreds of dialects. Instead of learning to speak the hundreds of variations, its a growing trend is to learn English.
Once you know English, the cultural barriers disappear. You can communicate not only with the Western world, but most of the rest of the world.
* Work is much better for English Speaking people
If you can speak English work options will increase dramatically. Without doubt, this is a requirement for any job in the United States.
The importance of being able to speak English has grown dramatically in recent years as people in countries like India, Brazil and Russia have established call centers and other service companies to support offshore U.S. companies.
Anyone who can speak several languages is at a lot better positiuon than one person who can speak one language. This is more so when one of the languages is English.
* Expand opportunities
When you can speak English, it will open many more opportunities for you.
You can access higher education officially available only for Westerners. You will be able to take advantage of travel agencies and indeed the entire infrastructure established by the Western English-speaking world.
I hope this article has been effective in helping to understand how important it is for you to learn to speak English.
There is a website that contains great information on learning English, the website is for anyone who currently speak Spanish, Dutch, German, Italian, Portuguese and French. The website is called: easy to speak English, and can be found at: http://www.easytospeakenglish.com
