No matter how much educated one can be, for example one may have degree in
Chemistry or
PHD in some field, if one does not speak well at least one foreign language today, or two, will miss professional opportunities by far. On the contrary one increases his/her own opportunities to find good job, by speaking well at least one language, and this was in the past, today, as things are going with
globalization, and
development of commerce and
international enterprises, one should speak well at least two languages, beating thus competition in
professional field..
Children should start at an early age to learn languages, and parents should push them to that direction. But learn a language, is not just a duty, Children should know in advance the necessity for learning a language, they should moreover love it, and even more be talented for it, or develop a talent potentially.
Learning begins at school age, with pupils and teachers. Their relationship is based on interaction. While teacher gives messages by transferring knowledge , children are like sponges ready to absorb what is offered to them. Knowledge of language is built little by little, We first learn to build phrases and sentences, while expanding vocabulary, and so on, then one discovers his/her knowledge his/her ability to speak one day, and usually children are very happy when they start speaking.
Another method for learning, mostly for adults is method of self teaching: There are books with grammar and vocabulary, giving us basic knowledge of a language, and making us able to speak to an extent, at first, then it’s up to us to develop our existing knowledge, and go further until learning it well. Then for example we can go and take advanced courses in the country of spoken language, and live for a while. This method presupposes, that we already know at least one language, before and well, otherwise, one should be very talented to be able to be self taught directly from first language and speak.
Today, with Internet there are sites offering courses of language, any language, either with method of E-learning, providing to students all necessary stuff, this being either content of E-learning, developed by certified people in a language, or native speakers who also got a degree of their mother tongue, and are trained for this purpose. Or there are sites offering lessons on Skype.
There student has the opportunity to see and listen teacher at the same time, even form distance, from this point of view this kind of learning is equal to face-by face learning, between teacher and student.
Today with development of methods of E-learning, some Institutes, Centers of learning, and Colleges will offer students also, audiovisual stuff, and teleconferences online, apart form content development as an additional support to learning.
Whatever method one chooses to learn a
foreign language, one should first love it, be dedicated and disciplined. A
language never ends, even if we become translators some day. It’s a life process, that may last for our whole life, and still then we won’t be sure to say, we know that language perfectly.. Particularities of grammar, vast vocabulary, idioms etc will make us never to leave or abandon a
language, as this language will also abandon us
