Me and English

Hi everybody, I want to say something about the role of English in my life .I started learning English when I was 12 years old. I know that it looks like a late beginning for learning a new language but unfortunately it is very common in Turkey. The education starts at the 4th grade and goes on till university. I think the course hours are very insufficient. The average course hours are 4 hours in a week. I chose to study English when ı was at high school so I took 12 hours in a week. I chose to study English because I like learning new languages. I can communicate with people from different countries. And it is much easier to communicate with them when you know English because it is a world language. And learning a new language means that you start to learn something about the culture of people who speak that language. It gives clues about the life style of people and history. That is a really attractive subject for me. I will be a teacher when ı graduate. It is also one of the reasons why ı chose to study English. That is all ı have for now. Take care!
