Abstract
“Learning a foreign language not only reveals how other societies think and feel, what they have experienced and value, and how they express themselves, it also provides a cultural mirror in which we can more clearly see our own society.” Gorsuch(as cited in Olita 2015) English language nowadays is an important tool to get better opportunities to work or get higher education or getting a Master’s degree. “English is now widely taught as a foreign language -in over 100 countries such as China, Germany, Spain, Egypt and Brazil and in most of these countries it is emerging as the chief foreign language to be encountered in often displacing another language in the process” (Crystal, 2003.p.5). As we can read English is the language with major number of speakers after Mandarin and chinese. In Mexico, English is basic, it is significant for the younger people or those who travel abroad. In these case, students and/or companies which send their employees to another country or who want an exchange abroad might find it vital. It is surprising the number of countries that today are teaching this language”.
