why i learn English Hi everyone. I am Peter ,a 30's year old guy,working as an English teacher from China.I have taken about 3 hours a day in learning English since about 7 years ago.You may have the questions that why you have spent a lot of time and energy in learning English. Is that really important for you? what can English do for you? I would like to answer your quesions in three aspects below. First of all,English is not only the most popular language in the wolrd,which is understood by a large number of people in many countries all around the world,but an offical language of the majority of nations.As for me a non-English speake,If i am skilled in English,i have more opportunities to communicate with those native English speakers.it can help me have better understand of their technolodge,cultrue and life. Secondly, I am an English teacher.My job is teaching teenagers English everday.Only when I have considerable knowledge of English,such as English grammar,sentence structure, the cultrue and history of America and Britain etc.,I may be able to be a qualified English teacher.Therefore more and more students would like to go to my class and listen to me.The more students go to my class, the more money i get.That is the main part income of my family,so i think that is the key role in my learing English. Finally,i can have a better chance to go abroad , working in American or other foreign companies and get more money.if you are good at English,you just have an advantage over those who only understand one language:you are a bilingual.i am sure that will make it easier for me to find a job than others. All above is the reason why i learn English.English is one of the most beautiful,useful and interesting languages in the Earth.So let us get ready for the upcoming English learing.
