How spoken English classes can help school kids

Unlike any other language, English is a globally accepted language for communication. It is also a common medium of teaching in many Indian schools and colleges. Understandably, spoken English classes improve communication, accuracy, vocabulary, pronunciation, interaction, and fluency. But here are some other reasons that you may want to consider.  

Window of opportunity  
Kids are now more ambitious than before. They want to take up dream jobs, and build a successful career in any country. But to realise this in reality, they need to write as well as speak English very well. They would need to clear English language proficiency exams to go abroad. They would also need to attend interviews where English is the only common language.  

Increase cross-culture interaction  
Kids studying in global schools can interact with other kids of their age if they can speak English fluently. Spoken English courses facilitate this. More than 50 nations accept English as an official language of communication. In fact, if the parents move abroad, the child will find it easier to gel if he or she has English speaking skills.  

Expands learning boundaries  
Speaking English fluently makes kids confident about talking to peers from other countries online and in events. This leads to a greater knowledge and appreciation of other culture, literature, music, lifestyle, science and technology.  

Improves social interaction  
Apart from peer group interaction or work interaction later in life, social skills come in handy when students attend online classes by teachers form other geographies who are more comfortable in English. It’s also a boon when college students are sent abroad for project and internships. But the foundation has to be laid in school.  

Helps browsing the internet  
Speaking English fluently means picking up a language more closely and getting more comfortable with it. The internet is run by English, from coding to social media. Anyone who wants to work seriously with hardware or software in any format would need to read, speak, and understand English fluently. And most kids are headed for a career in one of these fields.
