How Can I Use English in My Life?

Think about a time when you were at your local pharmacy and a tourist needed help filling a prescription. The pharmacist and the tourist just could not seem to understand each other. English could save the day. English could help that tourist heal from an illness or feel more comfortable.

Now think about a time when you were traveling abroad and you could not speak the local language. Have you ever done this before? It can be a little bit scary. You might need to find a certain bus stop or the nearest restroom—quickly! Luckily, many people around the world speak English, so a little bit of English can solve your problems abroad, no matter what country you are visiting.

One day in the future, you might go into an interview at a large corporation and find that your interviewer is a native English speaker. Even if they want to speak in your native language at first, your hard work to learn English—the international language of business—is about to pay off. Talk to them in English to demonstrate your skills, and they will see that you can be a very valuable employee.

English is only the third most-spoken language by native speakers. However, when you count all the people who speak English as a second, third or fourth language, then English is definitely the most-spoken language around the world!

English is really everywhere, so you will be able to communicate with native speakers and EFL (English as a Foreign Language) speakers all around this huge planet. You will help others, communicate with a huge diversity of people and help yourself unlock all sorts of life’s doors.
