[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Speaking English well should be the first priority. [/b]That is the international language. And all too often, foreigners are far more articulate, expressive, and concise than Americans. Being able to hold an intelligent conversation in English gets you far. Second language should be Mandarin. [/quote] I agree with this as table stakes. A second language actually helps English skills because it forces you to really learn grammar, and issues we don't have/gender/inflections, etc. [/quote]
