Learning any new language can often be challenging. However, it can also be one of your greatest assets in practicing international businesses. The language barrier can become a negotiation barrier.
Let us preface this with that each learner is different, and the difficulty in learning a language depends on a variety of factors. This includes the complexity of the language, how self-motivated you are, and the resources that are available for that specific language.
There is also a factor of which language is learned first. Some people who first tackled a more complex language, such as Japanese or Arabic, could struggle with structurally simpler languages such as French and Spanish.
So while the difficulty of learning a language can vary individually, we can use a combination of these factors to assess the difficulty of a few different language courses for native English speakers.
This infographic gives some of this generic information, and could prove to be a useful guide to many who are trying to decide what language courses in the UK or worldwide to take.
