The advantages and disadvantages of learning languages I need to improve my writing skills in English. I hope I will able to write some new topics every week ( I hope more than one : ) An essay: The advantages and disadvantages of learning languages abroad compared to learning in your own country. The world is going be more cosmopolitan in these days. A lot of people travel, work,lives in foreign countries. The knowledge of languages is becoming very important ,specially English. There are many ways to learn languages: take courses in your own country or go to the abroad. There are good and bad sides in both choices. The studies at home is very good for people who doesn't like being away from the friends, family. The studies at home is usually cheaper than life abroad. The bad thing is that this way is more difficult and slower. There could be sometimes disappointment when the native language speaker is met: they speak faster with dialect not like a teacher. The studies at home gives a lot of knowledge of language structure, grammar, it is more language research than language learning.There are less or aren't at all possibilities talk in real life situations. The abroad studies can be expensive and not everyone can be away from family and friend. The people are different and not all can make conversation easy, specially when you language is not so perfect. The bright side of study in abroad is possibility to hear and to speak with native language speaking people, to have real life situations and don't have interpreter or someone who could help with translation. The studies abroad give opportunity learn to speak like a child learns.They don't know a grammar: tenses, adjectives and etc. they just speak. The both study methods have good and bad things. If there are possibilities, I will choose the studies abroad. This is more natural and faster way to learn foreign language.
