It is very clear that English should be the primary foreign language taught in all schools around the world. Learning a different language before English is, in today’s world, a waste of time. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

English
is obviously one of the most widespread languages on Earth. Despite that fact, I completely disagree with the idea, that
English
should be seen as the only option for a primary foreign
language
.
English
is undoubtedly important, after

nevertheless
, we should warn ourselves from a blind belief, that

its difficulty. For children from continents other than Asia learning the

might be pretty challenging. An idea of the majority of Asian languages is based on drawing sufficient images of objects with remarkable features, not signs - the letters, which are generally used like instruments with no personal meanings inside. Hard though the

seems, it is easier to absorb complex rules as necessities and habits in childhood. To summarize, to my mind, it is essential for parents to reckon

Accordingly
, the economic situation in the modern world dictates us to choose between two mainly spread languages and it is easier to memorize difficult things in childhood though.
