Learning a Foreign Language

Learning another language can be challenging, yet fulfilling and rewarding. This is especially true with the increasing demand for bilinguals in teaching, translating, and interpreting services in this globalized world. In the Philippines alone, multilinguals are much sought after and paid highly by the booming BPO industry. Sheila Viesca, TalkShop CEO advises, “The outlook of the learner will determine how fast he learns a language. One who is moved to learn out of interest for another language, culture, and society will be more receptive. After all, the right disposition expedites language competence. On the other hand, those who pursue it as an academic requirement eventually get inspired to learn it by heart once the initial level of fluency is reached. The key is finding a credible school with native language speakers for teachers.”

TalkShop, the leading ISO-certified training facility accredited with the Civil Service Commission boasts of a pool of language experts, interpreters, and translators. Viesca shares, “The most in demand languages are Spanish, Japanese, French, Norwegian, German, Portuguese, and Arabic. For both group and individual sessions, we have a complete line-up of language offerings from Basic, Intermediate and Advanced levels.”
Viesca recommends immersion to expedite the process. “Assisted learning works best. Read textbooks, learn to write, listen actively to audio lessons and language learning apps. And do not be afraid to commit mistakes when speaking in the target language. Learning from mistakes sets one on the way to improvement.”
❝Language is the road map of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and where they are going.❞-‒Rita Mae Brown
