At some point or another, it’s likely that you’ll encounter someone who doesn’t speak your native language, and you’ll have to communicate with them in their native tongue. If you can’t speak the language they do, they won’t be able to understand you, and so the conversation will be more difficult and awkward than it needs to be. It doesn’t matter if you learn English because of your career or because of a vacation; learning this language is always worth it.
Moving Abroad
Learning a new language is not just important to your daily routine, but it can make it easier to communicate with other people. Learning English can help you communicate in a foreign country, and make it easier for your kids to learn too.
Buying Property
Due to the increasing property prices in Manila, many Filipinos are looking for properties outside the city. One option is Batangas City, which is a 3-hour drive south of Manila. The cost of living there is much lower than in the capital and it offers foreigners the opportunity to learn English daily as part of their daily routine. By speaking with locals on a regular basis, they can practice their skills in daily English and gradually become proficient speakers.
Working Abroad
Every day, millions of people speak English. It’s the most common language in the world and it is quickly becoming a second language for many people. This means that if you want to work abroad and make more money, you need to speak English fluently.
Studying Abroad
Learning a language can have many benefits including being able to better communicate and connect with people from different cultures. While you may be able to do this to some extent without speaking the language, it can be much more difficult. In order to really understand and fully appreciate another culture, you must learn their language. Studying abroad is a great way to accomplish both these goals by immersing yourself in another culture while also learning the local language.
Finding Friends
Learning a new language can be hard, but it’s worth it. I’ve been studying daily English for the past few months, and I’ve made some really good friends from all over the world. It’s definitely helped me become more open-minded and understand more perspectives than I did before.
Applying for Jobs
At this point, it’s safe to say that a majority of jobs require at least some proficiency in English. The good news is that there are plenty of resources out there to help you learn the language quickly and well.
