If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time.When I was 10 years old, all the students in our class needed to choose foreign languages for learning.
I begged to taken to the group studying German.
In the 80's nobody needed English.
If I could turn back time and knew the future, I would certainly choose English.
I need it for communicating with friends and I like it very much.
I would also like to study at the University of Foreign Languages Faculty.
Then I’d go abroad to practice.
When my English was sufficient to use it at work, I would work a teacher and a translator.
I’d like to work by the Internet.
I would have traveled to a lot of different countries.
Knowledge of modern* languages makes possible a larger income.
I think that my life was filled with many bright events and I wouldn’t want to change it significantly.
But if it has happened that I do not know the English language, I am going to learn it now!
*modern languages (as a subject) = Russian, English, Mandarin Chinese, French, .. ie, not Latin, ancient Greek, Etruscan, etc. One also calls them 'living languages' in contrast to 'dead languages'.
Very well written!

(Maybe change the tense of this sentence from past tense to present tense? This is just a suggestion.)
My life is filled with many bright events and I don't want to change it significantly.
But if it has happened that I do not know the English language, I am going to learn it now!
(Same suggestion here. Maybe say it differently.)
Even though I did not learn the English language, I am going to learn it now!
