Some people think that the teaching of languages is just a waste of time and money. But to my mind it is not so. Languages need always and everywhere. I would like to tell about the benefits of teaching languages. Firstly learn languages - it is at least interesting. Secondly, if you know at least one of the most common European languages, then you will have a chance to find a good job abroad. Well as communication in a foreign language develops horizons, expand the circle of communication. And did sometimes do not want to see a movie in the original, or to understand what is the meaning of your favorite song? And so I think that languages are worth the time and the money that we give for the sake of learning languages. 

I began to study English in the second form and by now I have been learning this language for 9 years.

I like English; I think any foreign language helps to understand your own language. The English language is one of the most important languages in the modern world; more than one billion people can speak or understand this language. This language is the official language in such countries as the United States of America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the South-African Republic, India and many African countries.

English is one of the five official languages of the United Nations Organization. English is the language of the great English literature. It is the language of Shakespeare, Byron and Charles Dickens. From the early childhood we enjoy the books by English writers — who does not know Winnie-the Pooh, Sherlock Holmes or Robinson Crusoe!

But the English language is also the language of science — most of scientific magazines in the world are published in English. It is impossible to be a good scientist without knowing this language. That is why I pay much attention to English and I hope that in the the future I shall know this language well
