Learning a new language is a challenging, but very fulfilling task. Choose to learn Spanish specifically and you will see the advantages of pursuing a language that has a global presence. Spanish immersion opportunities are easy to find, and you will gain a new asset for most any career path you pursue. Once you have learned the language, you will have access to learning a variety of Latin cultures and traditions in a far more engaging setting. You can perhaps explore recent news about Latin icons and celebrities from Spanish sources. You can partake in cultural events such as Day of the Dead in Oaxaca. You can immerse with the local population in your next vacation to Havana. You can pursue a lifelong dream of becoming an Alpaca farmer deep in the Andes Mountains in Ecuador. Really the sky is the limit when it comes to finding ways to put a new language to use. You will find that Spanish is very easy to learn. We already share the same alphabet and there are only a couple new sounds you will need to learn to produce. Everything else will feel familiar enough to give you a solid place to start any lesson. Granted that some rules might seem tricky at first, but if you could learn English just fine, I am confident that you will be able to master the Spanish language as well.
