1. Since everyone is speaking English or is goin to speak English why should I learn a foreign language ?
It is true that every non English speaking country is going to teach their people English at school or people are going to take a English course themselves in order to learn the International Language
. But, this doesn't mean that all of them are able to speak the language well enough to communicate or to solve problems even handle negotiations. Non English speaking countries people are learning it in order to have a second language and to take advantage of it. Look from your point of view how fantastic it could be to speak with the person in front of you in his native language though he speaks English. Just consider all the advantages you can have : ease of mind, improved negotiations, comfortable travels
, making friends, be "the person" in your community,...etc..

It is obvious that learning a new language is difficult and it will be difficult since you are going to learn a new language and also a new culture. But don't be afraid that much, here are the hard parts of learning a new language :
a ) Learning grammar rules
b ) Memorizing vocabulary and conjunction
c ) Spelling rules and new alphabets
d ) Pronunciation of unfamiliar sounds
Don't "panic
" none of these are necessary to learn a foreign language and thats why most people FAIL !!!!
" none of these are necessary to learn a foreign language and thats why most people FAIL !!!!Learning a new language depends on how much input you put at the beginning, it is a physical skill that can be learned with lots of input in the beginning stage and lots of output when you are ready to use it.
Think about babies
, all new born babies learn their first language perfectly without ever reading a grammar book or taking a language course : ))))

The difficulty of a language is mostly rated by how similar it is to your own native language. For example, Chinese is difficult for German people
but not that much difficult for Japanese people
. If you are going to learn your new language in the traditional way than "yes" similarity between two language will make it less difficult. The important point is to have a) much interest (to be eager) to learn a new language b) comprehensive input as possible.

Of course it will have many advantages to learn a foreign language where it is spoken, but it is not a condition to do it. According to many linguists, the key point in foreign language learning is "listening" in stead of speaking. This is a big advantage since you can listen to your new foreign language anytime and anywhere. Just imagine how fantastic
it is to put as much input as you can through a media player wherever you are. And you can find very easy high-quality contents from everywhere.
