About The English Language.


About the English language

Over 350 million people speak English as their first language, including 55 million in the UK and more than 200 million in the USA. It's an official language in over 50 countries around the world.
The total number of people who can speak English, including those who speak it as a second language, is well over a billion.
English is a relatively easy language to learn. With a little practice, you should soon find yourself able to get by in most everyday situations.

So why learn English?

An international language
Learning to speak English will allow you to communicate with a massive number of people around the globe.
Boost your job prospects
In an increasingly inter-connected world, a good knowledge of English is a great advantage for many jobs. English is also the most widely used language for international business.
Travel
Any trip or stay in an English-speaking country will be greatly enriched if you can speak a little of the language. Even in countries where English isn't the local language, you will still find it enormously useful on your travels.
