Foreign languages

The importance of learning foreign languages nowadays

Albania has opened up to other countries of the world and the need to learn foreign languages has already arisen. It is good for children to learn several languages from an early age. Besides having more chances to find a good job in the future or to advance in their career, learning a second language can also give them an insight into other cultures. They will be better prepared and more confident to travel the world and explore the different ways of life of other people. Studying foreign languages improves listening skills and memory. Everyone participates more effectively and responsibly in a multicultural world if they know another language.
