Tag! Bonjour! Buenos dias!
"Goethe said: 'He, who doesn't know another language knows nothing
of his own.' Studying German helped me to understand the syntax and the structure
of English. Studying German has taken me numerous times to Europe, and I appreciate
other cultures and have a better world view than if I had never studied a language." (Mr.
Walker, German teacher)
"Learning another language opens a world of so many opportunities.
You can use it in your career, to travel, study abroad, learn about different
cultures and people, meet different people, etc." (Mr. Gin, Department
Chair and French teacher)
"Knowing another language is like being another
person." (Mrs.Gilbert, Spanish teacher)
There are many important reasons to learn another language:
Knowing another language is a skill that opens up a world
of opportunities from career to travel to personal.
Culture is expressed through language. A student
can learn a lot about a particular culture through the study of its language.
A student can learn a lot about his/her own language
by studying another language.
