I started learning English because my parents want that. For many years I hated learn English. I found it diffucult and boring. But when i started wark,I found English language very usefull and necesarry.
For me, what I like in English language, is that most people speak English and it is much easier to communicate when you know English.
In my country - Poland, there is very diffucult to find good jo, even any job, without knowing foreign language.
I am interested in photography. Most of websides about taking photos is in English. I can learn a lot abot it when I know English.

Hi Mad-Ox!

I am learning English to broaden my horizons... and, I confess, to get a promotion at work!
