“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I may remember. Involve me and I learn.”
Deepen your understanding
As Goethe once said, “Those who know nothing of foreign languages know nothing of their own.” By mastering another language, you open the door to a greater appreciation and deeper comprehension of your first language and culture. This, in turn, enables you to communicate more fluently and with greater understanding and sensitivity.
Add another string to your bow
To an existing or potential employer, your ability to communicate confidently with global business partners is a valuable asset in the 21st century. In a nutshell, excellent language skills can open doors to new markets, deepen your cultural understanding and help you and your company stand out in a sea of competition.
