#WhyLearnGerman? Germany is one of the world’s most important contributors to research and development and German is the second most used scientific language.

Today, Sir Jeremy Fleming, Director GCHQ joined a panel with @LanguageShow discussing
🔵 The future of languages
🟣 Their true value in the workplace
🟢 The skills we can develop through language learning
He explained how vital languages are to the work we do
ALT A photo of Sir Jeremy Fleming accompanied by the quote 'If we are to be genuinely a Global Britain, if we are to exercise our influence, to engage the places we need to engage right across the world, then languages need to be a part of that.'

If I could persuade every young person in the world to do one thing, it would be to learn a second language. It’s a great career asset, it enables you to see life from another perspective and it will make you unexpected friends throughout your days.

There’s no need to ask why languages matter. They make you better at whatever you do. They open your mind to new ways of thinking in medicine, music, religion, physics, history, maths, politics, law & so much more. Understanding matters. Communication matters. Languages matter.

When I’m asked, why learn another language when everyone speaks English? I reply, there are millions of people who don’t speak English & even if they do, their hearts & minds are in their own languages. You’ll find that connecting with hearts & minds takes you so much further.

🇩🇪A great website for German learners🇩🇪 I came across this jobs website during the year ausbildung.de/ It is so user-friendly and clear, I look forward to using it with students. They can search for their "Traumberuf", "beliebteste/bestbezahlte Berufe" #german #languages
