Hello, my name is Anna and I'm an English teacher at ILS.  In a globalized world where mobility is facilitated, learning a language is a wonderful benefit. It helps not only when traveling, it is also a great advantage for studying in general and for career prospects abroad. Acquiring a second language enables us to develop various mental abilities at all ages. Learning a new language boosts our brain power and it also improves our memory. A new language requires not only familiarity with vocabulary and rules but also being able to recall and apply this knowledge.
