And
all of my lovely friend in this class.
First
of all, let’s pray and thanks unto our god ALLAH the Almighty, who has given us
some mercies and blessings so we can meet together in this blessing place with
good condition and happy situation.
Secondly,
may peace and salutation always be given to our prophet Muhammad SAW, who has

way.
Ladies
and gentlemen…
Standing
in front of you all, I would like to deliver a speech about “The importance of
learning English?”
Begin
with the question about “Is it important to learn English?”
How
important do you think English to be learn?
Of
course many reason and opinion will appear when we hear this question. There
are some people said that learning English is important and there are some
people said that learning English is less important even with their variety of
reasons and opinions.
There
are still many people in this country do not agree about the importance of
learning English which is accompanied by their variety of reasons and opinions.
They argued:
Why
do we have to learn English? If we still have our own language, Indonesian, that
is used as our national language. Why do we have to learn English? If we still
have thousands of traditional languages which we should preserve them together.
However,
in this globalization era, English is very important. We are still able to live
without English, but there are many advantages that make our lives so much
better if we learn English seriously such as:
First,
English is the most widely spoken languages.
Although
it comes second to Mandarin in the total number of speakers, but it is the official
language in a large number of countries. It is estimated that the number of
people in the world that use in English to communicate on a regular basis is 2
billion! So maybe we will get an opportunity to go abroad one day, your travel
will be more easily, because you can communicate with people wherever you go. Ask
directions, have a conversation,
or... ask for help. Who knows, maybe English will save your life someday!
Second,
English is the dominant business language and research from all over the world
shows that cross-border business communication is most often conducted in
English. Its importance in the global market place therefore cannot be
understated, learning English really can change your life.
Third,
for you who love watching films or TV shows, reading books, and listening to
music. Many of the world’s top films, books and music are published and
produced in English. Therefore by learning English you will have access to a
great wealth of entertainment and will be able to have a greater
cultural understanding.
Fourth,
Most of the content produced on the internet is in English. Approximately, 55%
of all written content on the internet is in English. Also, with the increase
in popularity of Facebook, Twitter and YouTube; as well as other social media
sites, the possibility of Native English speakers and non-Native speakers
interacting has greatly increased. So knowing English will allow you access to
an incredible amount of information which may not be otherwise available!
Although
learning English can be challenging and time consuming, we can see that it is
also very valuable to learn and can create many opportunities!
Now,
Shall we ask “Is it important to learn English?”
I
think we don’t have to ask that again, because learning English is the most
important language and it may be the key of your success.Not much that I can
say today, just a few of words above that I can deliver to you at this moment,
thank a lot for your attention and I also ask for forgiveness for my mistakes,
and the last I say.
Wassalamu’alaikumwr.Wb.
