Ans. English language is like, equal to Treasure for me, because more and more I get and It becomes deeper and logical. People always like foreign language and It is English language. So, when I was in U.G. at that time I choose Compulsory with main english language. So, other students tell me, Why you choose only english? And my ama was , because I get knowledge, I want to understand and I want to teach other weak children and students. So, that's why I choose main subject as a english.

  ☺️First essay; "Teaching English as a second language." by Kapil kapoor

Yes, of course in this essay Kapil kapoor is arguing and his view on the contemporary teaching style. we have our mothers language and second language. He says english is not second language but, third language, because, our second language is Hindi. So, he gives the term 'second language' is understand indifferent ways. Here, I see use of language through Modernization and Mythology.

Ans. I want to give good position because, english is very important for me. And not because it's my choice but, because it's our day to day require. For example, Medicines labels are not in gujrati and in hindi language, but, English language. So, it's every day use for people. That's why english language is more important rather than other languages. It's my point of view, for english language.
