Why
Learn Another Language?
| Give
yourself a competitive edge
Did
you know that studying a second language can improve your skills and grades
in Math and English and can improve entrance exam scores - SATs, ACTs,
GREs, MCATs and LSATs? |
| The
job advantage in a global economy
More
and more businesses work closely with companies in other countries.
They need many kinds of workers who communicate in different languages
and understand other cultures.
There
are lots of Americans who speak languages other than English. If
you've ever thought of being a nurse, a doctor, a police officer, a judge,
an architect, a business person, a singer, a plumber, or a Web master,
you will multiply your chances for success if you speak more than one language. |
| Learning
other cultures: Your world and beyond
Discover
new worlds! Get an insider's view of another culture and a new view
of your own.
Connect
with other cultures. Knowledge of other cultures will help you expand
your personal horizons and become a responsible citizen. Your ability
to talk to others and gather information beyond the world of English will
contribute to your community and your country. |
| Go
for the Excitement: New Ways of Language Learning
What
can you expect? You will learn a second language in exciting new
ways using technology and focusing on communication (speaking). Learning
a language is not just learning grammar and vocabulary. It is learning
new sounds, expressions, and ways of seeing things; it is learning how
to function in another culture, how to know a new community from the inside
out. |
| Which
language should you learn?
There's
no one answer. At Pebblebrook, you can learn French, German,
or Spanish. Whatever language you choose, learning it will make a
difference in how you see the world and in how the world sees you.
