The world has anew mania, mania for learning English such as in China, students practice English by screaming it. two billion people trying to learn English in worldwide. In china, learning English starting at third grade by law and it makes china as a largest english speaking country.

English is the world’s second language. our native language is our life but with English we can understand wider conversation; global conversation, global problems like climate change or poverty.
