Everybody need it, English!

One of the most common thoughts people have concerning the study of English is to get a certificate, due to the fact that this can bring a better position on the market, it is a way of being recognized professionally. I´m not saying that this way of thinking is wrong, but there are others and better reasons to make the English language part of your life.
Firstly, when you first have a contact with the language, it seems a little difficult, but later you realize that it brings you a lot of knowledge, new information about other people culture and also your own. Learning English makes you develop your skills, consequently, you realize the hole that you have in your community, and furthermore, seeing yourself as a world citizen. As you might know, English is all around the world and there are more second language speakers of English than native which brings us to the fact that this language is also a way of communication. It´s fundamental to know other cultures, without the capacity of understand and communicate in another language; you get stuck in your own culture.
Another reason for the need of English is the frequency we see it in our daily lives. It can be seen in pubs, shops, bakeries, markets and in many other places. If you have the knowledge on how to deal with it, you can take it for granted as a way of being aware of what happens around you. To remain monolingual is not a positive point in your educational development, because you restrict your abilities and deny yourself to appreciate and understand the world in which you live. English is not a way of exclusion, but a way of meet other people, new cultures, have contact of what is “different” for you
