The Advantages of Learning Foreign Language

Language is the means of communication of human beings. With the proficiency of a language, you can understand different custom in every country. Now we are living in the global village, language is not only a tool but also is very important to us.
It is necessary to learn foreign language. In the present society, it is not enough if you just speak and understand your native language that is not enough. You have to learn foreign language, for example, English, Japanese, etc. In Taiwan, we learned English when we were young because of the policies of the government. Due to the exam-oriented teaching style, some people whose writing skills is very well but they may be afraid to speak out. The cramming teaching method is in the fashion of force-feeding and we should be blamed for the result. For instance, according to a report, Taiwanese people’s English abilities were the last two places in Asia; therefore, we had to improve our English skills.
Learning English is very important in the present, as the power of the USA spreads across the world, therefore, English is the official second language in many countries. People come from different cultures to work and live together, and this will bring change. Instead of struggling for words, people can quickly share ideas and work together. Sharing language means easier communication and foundation for trust.
We have many opportunities to trade with foreigner in the 21st century. For example, experts predicted that Asian economy will flourish in the future; many businessmen invest their money and trade with Asians. Taiwan is a part of Asia, English is important for Taiwanese. If you wish to get a better job, you should have the skills of foreign language
Learning English has some advantages, it is an important part of global language. It is essential to learn because studying hard can rich my knowledge. In addition, each person has their culture and language, but when it comes to getting a job, knowing and using a major world language to communicate.
