Learning a different foreign language before English is, in

Post by rakez »

Topic: It is very clear now that English should be the primary foreign language taught in all schools around the world. Learning a different foreign language before English is, in today’s world, a waste of time. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Answer: There is no deny that English is the top most widely spoken language in the world. The practice of speaking and writing in English came into existence since centuries. It continued to be popular and familiar to various nation, majorly because of the British influence. However most of the people, agree that learning a foreign than English is waste of time.
First of all, the popularity of learning English is increasing day by day in countries like Middle east, South east asia and African countries. Teaching English in the schools helps the pupils to gain international language experience. For example, it broader employment and higher education opportunities in English speaking countries more than non- English speaking countries. Moreover, all the famous literatures from the ancient to modern are written in English.
On the other hand, in a few countries like Japan, China and Korea the government and public only shows interest in their respective native languages. In the today’s present busy world, people learn foreign language like Spanish, French as a hobby which would not be a beneficial in their real life, except unless they visit the language spoken country. However, English has international reorganization and only primary foreign language to promote the business across the globe. Although, teaching a new foreign language in schools other than English will not be a success in practice, because hardly students find the person who speaks outside the school.
In summary, English is the only ultimate foreign language that can be taught in schools without second the thought. However, I feel that learning a new language other than English is waste of time because it will be less in practice.

It continued to be popular and familiar to various nations, due to the British influence. However, most people agree that learning a foreign language other than English is a waste of time.

First of all, the popularity of learning English is increasing day by day in the Middle East, South East Asia and many African countries. Teaching English in schools helps the pupils to gain international language experience. For example, it broadens employment and higher education opportunities in English speaking countries. Moreover, all the famous literature from the ancient to modern are written in English.

On the other hand, in a few countries like Japan, China and Korea the government and public only show interest in their respective native languages. In today’s busy world, people learn foreign languages like Spanish and French as a hobby which is not beneficial in real life, unless they visit those specific countries. However, English is the primary foreign language used to promote business across the globe. Therefore, teaching a foreign language in schools other than English will not be a success in practice, because few students are likely to meet anyone who speaks that language outside of school.

In summary, English is the ultimate foreign language that should be taught in schools. However, I feel that learning a new language other than English is a waste of time because it will be useless in practice.
