English is "the business" language of the world. English is the third most spoken language and the most commonly studied language (which means there is one new speaker for every three native speakers).

Being a native English speaker is a huge advantage in your professional life, but it is not enough. Today, it is necessary to be at least fluent in two languages if you want to grow up in your career and earn more money.

You can think I am exaggerating. Maybe, I am. However, the US is a country full of immigrant families, full of people who speak English since forever at the school and another language at home (yes, I envy them too), full of first generations of immigrants who are native in another language, but they speak English (yes, with an accent, with errors, but they speak English). Also, there is a world full of countries where people are learning English. Yes, the competition is immense.

I want to add that studying another language can make the difference in getting your dream job. And, don't forget there are several good universities in other countries where you can get your graduate degree and have a "one time in life" experience.

The good news is you can learn a second language. I am not talking about taking two courses at college; it is to speak, read and speak fluently another language. I am saying you have to spend time learning a new code of words and new phonetic sounds.

I have some suggestions about which new language you can learn.

These seven are some of my suggestions, but if you want to learn another language is perfect. The objective is to understand how important is for our careers to study a second language.
