THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH
Salam
MUQODDIMAH
Praise be to Allah, The Lord of the universe who has given us the blessing, so we can live in this world well.
Peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad that has shown us from the dark way to the right way that is Islam religion.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Honorable juries,
And dear audience.
Mastering science well is a requirement for someone to gain bliss in life. For example; someone who masters English well is able to improve his career, as English is as the international language. We have known that in this modern era almost all aspects of life, from the smallest to the biggest one, use English as the lingua franca of it, for instance: in the field of business, commerce, administration, and government. Knowing this, we are as students, we are demanded to be able to anticipate the situation, transition, development, and the progress of civilization, even it is in the field of language. As we know that language is very important for the success or failure of someone's career.
Dear audience,
In the field of education, English plays an important role. Because by mastering English well means we have a key to open the door of science. We can study science of which sources are written in English. I think we have known that almost all science books have been written in English, don't we? And by mastering English well, we can exchange information with other countries about the things which are closely connected with education. Nowadays our government has been sending the students abroad to study the science. And the students that are sent are those who master English, of course. Because the science they will study is served in English. That's why the role of English is considered very important in the field of education.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I think we have known the importance of English, mainly in this era. And we are going to face the globalization era, aren't we? Aren't we aware about this? And what will we have to prepare to face the globalization era? The answer is studying the science. In doing so, we need a skill in language. And of course, the most important language is English. It is an international language, right? Knowing the importance of English, as students, we must study and master it. Without mastering English, we will look behind in science. I know that English used to be a bugaboo subject in the eyes of students. It used to be, but not now, right? As almost all students nowadays have been aware of the importance of it. In their mind, English is a language that must be studied and mastered.
Dear audience,
That's all for my speech, and I hope what I have delivered can be an addition of knowledge for the students in order to know the importance of English in the field of education.
Finally I say:
Salam
