however
Add a comma
,however
show examples
 in my opinion, it is always better to have any foreign
language
 for your future. I will describe my point of view in the below essay.
To begin
 with, I believe having a foreign
language
 is a kind of another skill and the good thing is, most schools are teaching a foreign
language
 from 5th grade. There are a lot of benefits to it.
Firstly
, If you have a foreign
language
then
 in the future you can work as a highly skilled worker in top government level jobs like foreign embassy or translator of the minister.
Secondly
, you can go to any foreign country for higher studies or work.
For instance
, I learned french in 7th grade and now if I want to go to Canada for work
then
 I can easily interact with any french person.
Thirdly
, you can start your side business of teaching foreign languages which will increase your income.
Furthermore
, if everyone is learning foreign languages
then
 people will start moving abroad which will impact the labour market of their origin country. Another disadvantage is, people will stop talking in their national
language
 which will low down the rank of
language
 on the international
language
 scale. In conclusion, if you have any foreign
language
 in your skills
then
 you always have another plan to start a new life in case your current job is not going well.
