For non-native English speakers,
it is very important to learn the English language adequately to avoid problems
in communication. Some countries particularly in Middle East and Asia, English is
not being used as a medium of instruction in school. These people grew up with
their own native language. And when these people travel abroad either for
business or pleasure, they often encounter a language barrier problem.
English language course is being specialized by some schools to
help people speak the language effectively. In some Asian countries such as in
Korea and Japan, taking a specialized English course costs a lot of money. In
the Philippines, there is a widespread of Englishlanguage schools around the country. Most Asian nationalities chose to
study in the Philippines because it is affordable even if they have to allocate
additional travel expenses, plus the fact that Filipinos are proficient English
speakers, hence, they are good English teachers.
In this globalization,
communication plays a great role in connecting between nations and English is
the only international language that is being globally used. The increasingly
sophisticated communications and transportation technologies and services are
factors that have contributed a lot to globalization. It offers huge potential
profits to companies and nations. Therefore, it is imperative for businessmen
to study English accurately for
proper communication, and because translation services are costly and prone to
error during multinational meetings.
