Use of English
1. Self-development
What most people do every day is go to
work to perform their usual duties, and
after work head back home to perform
household chores or go meet with friends;
very few of them find time to study. After
graduation from school and university, our
brain starts to work in a relaxed mode
because it no longer needs to memorize
many new terms or process a lot of
information, and as a result, it begins to
relax in a way.
Nothing trains our brain better than
learning languages. After starting a
language learning process, in a couple of
weeks, you will notice that you have
improved your memory and your ability to
perceive and systematize information. And
in a month, you will become more
organized and less lazy.
It also makes you realize it is high time you
search for new career opportunities and
grow as a specialist.
2. Career growth
Perhaps you currently work as an ordinary
manager and do not see the possibility of
progress, or perhaps your company does
not even require perfect knowledge of
English; but the thing is, you don't know
what will happen tomorrow. Maybe your
friend will propose you to work on a
promising project, or you'll decide to
change your life and give up the job you
hate so much to find a new one which is
more interesting and highly paid.
What are we leading to? The knowledge of
English will definitely play a decisive role in
the development of your career or at least it
will be an excellent addition.
A job is only one of the important elements
in the life of every person. It is not a secret
that knowing how to speak English
language has helped many other people
within and outside Nigeria to find new
friends and even their second half.
3. Love and friendship
The global network has already expanded
the possibilities of communication. In our
time it is possible to communicate easily
with a foreigner. English proficiency helps
you make new interesting friends and
expand your circle of acquaintances,
thereby making life brighter and more
beautiful.
Everyone knows that love can find anyone
irrespective of their age; it is also important
to add that love can find you no matter your
city, country, continent or nationality; who
knows, you may just end up marrying a
foreigner.
You never know where you will meet your
destiny: in a store that is around the corner
or on the other end of the world. You can't
predict whether your soulmate will be your
colleague or a romantic Italian, or maybe a
serious American or a fair-haired
Norwegian.
There are lots of couples from different
nationalities and we can say with
confidence that it was the knowledge of
English that helped these people to find
each other and their infinite happiness.
Knowledge of one of the most popular
languages in the world opens borders and
gives you an opportunity to travel without
problems and confusions.
4. Safety in travel
Many learn English in order to feel
comfortable traveling, to be able to ask for
directions, meet new people, and have a
good time. This is absolutely fine! But let's
also talk about security. If something
suddenly happens to you, how will you
explain to the doctor what is it that hurts
you? And if your child becomes ill, how can
you ask for help without knowing the
language?
Also, during trips around the new city or
country, you should be able to understand
what the guide says. You will not get lost in
an unfamiliar place because you know the
language. You can easily navigate the city,
which means that you will know the state
better, constantly communicating with its
inhabitants. And, finally, in the restaurant,
you can order what you like, not poking
your finger at a beautiful dish.
5. An example for your children
To know English is prestigious, that's why
so many parents try to send their children
to special schools to take language courses
or to take private lessons with a tutor.
Would you like your children to speak 2-3
languages? Would you like them to be able
to study in international schools and not
experience the hardship of learning the
language themselves in adulthood? We're
sure that your answers are positive. You
and only you can serve as an example for
your children, and it is you who can help
them to learn the language quickly and
easily!
It is also worth mentioning that English can
help to diversify your leisure and bring
more pleasure.
