If you’re a secondary school student, in the 6th form, at University or even considering a career change, have you ever considered what learning a new language can do for you? You should. The opportunities are vast!
Did you know that the following languages are not only in the top ten of most spoken languages globally, but they have been cited as being in the top ten list of languages needed to secure the UK’s future!
- Chinese Mandarin
- Spanish
- English
- Russian
- Japanese
- Italian
- German
Is it smart, then, to learn more languages? You bet it is! No wonder the government has included a language requirement in its full slate of EBacc subjects.
Locally, too, more schools across Greater Manchester and East Cheshire are offering a wider range of languages. Manchester Grammar offers GCSE Russian, for instance!
Open doors to an exciting future
Nelson Mandela once said, ‘If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.’
There’s no doubt whatsoever that learning one of these aspirational languages can offer untold career and social opportunities to young people. Learning intercultural skills also helps you become more resourceful, independent and respected.
Lucrative career opportunities abroad are waiting to be snapped up by forward-thinking people who have another language or two on their belt. Will that be you?
