Firstly, I'm university student in science and nowadays it's more than essential to master the english.
In fact, almost the whole scientific community publish research articles in english.
Otherwise, as a French speaker I'm limited at few articles and readers.
Secondly, maybe I ll go in an English university beacause, for me the best way to learn language is immersion.
And also, that could increase study domains accessibles.
Now, I can understand almost all in english, but my biggest problem is expression, indeed I don't practice it, so it's hard for me to express myself without errors and with decent accent.
Before all, my biggest learning problem is a cultural problem.
I don't like politic and social aspects from US and GB.
For me, these countries are leading models of Mondial finance (capitalism, ultraliberalism..) and legal wars.
Few words to illustrate, stock exchange, petrodollar, 2008, goldman, inegalities, gaza, weapon, monsanto, queen, empire, lobbys...
I could easily extend facts that are repulsive for me...
I never had studied sociology, but I ll resume in three words cupidity, individualism and lie...
And the worst in the story is the lack of objectivity from the media and population.
For example, even when these government bombarded civils of the world, they are nice whereas the countries bombarded are bad...
A fair and clever balance...
I m not defending France, this country is also following theses atrocities.... but it s my native language... and I like the fact that France have socialist culture in comparaison with English countries.
If you read until there, I hope that you haven t be hurt if you are english native..
And if you think they are allegations I wait your answer...
Of course, to have english friend could help me to relativise my point of view... Peace
