More students are interested to study abroad, it is crucial for them to learn new language. Language is very important tool to survive abroad. Although technology have make life's more easier for people to go abroad without learning their language. But it is best to learn the language rather than relying on technology, since learning new language allow us to be more open minded. Especially communicating with people that are not from your country.
It's difficult to learn new language, especially language that have different letter from your country. For example America and Indonesia, although their accent and their vocab is different, but they use the same letter. On the other hand, if we pick America and China they have different accent, different vocab, as well as different letter. Learning new language is very difficult, you need patient and determination to learn. It's very important to have a long term motivation of learning new language, those people who have who have a long term motivation are less likely to give up.
Base on my experience, I don't like speaking with foreign people. Especially using language that Im not confident with. But I like listening to foreign people while their talking. As a foreign student I can understand that some people can understand what their trying to say, but you could not reply to his or her question when they ask you. People have their own liking and disliking, in term of learning new language skills.
The most difficult thing to learn new language is memorising their vocabulary, and grammar rules, because vocab and their grammar are very different from my country. Some vocab or grammar may ring a bell in your head, since some vocab and grammar are taken from other foreign country.
