If Science and Math is the most difficult subject for most of the students, English must be the toughest one. English seems to be burdensome which makes modern students consider this essential subject, a huge “brain bleeder”. Indeed, for many speaking English is a dilemma.

 

English language is the voice of the entire globe. It is the key to a more comprehendible communication between different nations, peoples and races. Its significant role in the society is not well realized especially by some students who believed that being a patriot or a nationalist is more important; thinking that love for the national language is being neglected by utilizing the universal lingua franca.

 

Some of us has a misconception speaking in English that it s only for the rich one. Since it is usually used for social purposes, many people especially that typical ones and determined to learn. Using English language does not mean that you don’t love one’s country.

 

Today, let’s face the challenge. Let us comply with the rules of excellence. For some, English is a burdensome subject. Yes, maybe it is, but one thing should be in our mind – let us this burden be the shield against ignorance and an instrument through transcendence.
