Learning a language doesn't only mean for a private tuition class and devoting your whole time into that single thing. It's a gradual process and in the long-run you will feel good about what you've achieved, like me! :D
I want to share my story related to the same subject here. Well, one of my friend happened to join a Language School for German Language and she also approached me to come along. As it was a morning class, I too wanted to give it a go, thinking it will give 'the lazy bird- ME'', a reason to catch the early worm. :P However I did not have much interest over German, so, I opted for a Korean Language class instead. Reasons were that- I already liked the language with those vast amount of time I invested in watching Korean movies and dramas. I gave it a try, studied it for 2 years and graduated! Well again, I had to take up another language class for Japanese to shift with my husband in Japan. This one happened in a bit hassle so I had to take private tuition classes. Yes, when you study more that one language at a time, you end of scratching your head and get confused all over. Nevertheless, there was no regret whatsoever. I always feel good when I think that I know a vast choices of Language. ;)
1. Its actually fun!
The process of learning a new language is exciting, first of all. If you are in a place where there are people of different countries, then it adds up a little fun in speaking the languages you've learned. Plus, interacting with different people enriches your friend circle as well.
2. Adds up value to your resume
Adding some extra language beside your native language also adds value to your resume. Well, say if you have same qualities compared to others in a same job candidacy then only your one extra language can grab your the job. Isn't this a bonus?
3. Broadens the employment opportunities
As we can see, there are numerous job opportunities for a person with an extra language quality such as Translator, or Teacher for foreign language, Travel Guide. It widens your job search ar
ea.
4. That can be your code language
It's always fun to have a code language. That code language could be anything of your own. I remember my Aunts using language of their own that was very hard to understand or should say, a bit tricky. A foreign language can be used instead. It helps when you want to have conversation that you don't want the third person to understand. But of course, provided that the second person also knows the language.
5. Provides study abroad opportunities
I guess most of the countries has this opportunity; like, when you take up a certain language and excel in the same you get to graduate in language from that very same country. Don't you think this is a 'go-getter'. Well, I too tried my hands on this one but, its shameful that I lacked behind. ;) Leaning language is interesting; but a bit hard isn't it? :P
Well, why not start to learn a new language from today. It just requires a bit to your manageable time. And I bet it costs a way too little than what you will achieve. Join a language college, or if not, there are tones of classes over the internet. They won't even cost you, bingo!
