Why Should We REALLY Learn Languages? My students ask me this question all the time, and it took me years to articulate the right answer not only for them but also especially for me.
You probably already have different valid answers to this question and even a Google slide presentation. I did too. But for me, those answers did not provide the most essential reasons why our students should learn languages. So, if you feel you don't have THE answer yet, this episode is for you.
Today I am sharing why I think it is essential that we know the answer to this question, how my answer has evolved over the years, and the step-by-step conversation I have with my students about this question so they get as inspired as me to be in class.
