The first pie chart shows different reasons why students learn a second language while the second chart illustrates how they account for recent changes. Data is based on a survey by some British teachers of foreign languages.
Overall, travel seems to be the primary reason for learning a second language among British students. At the same time, the majority of teachers think that the recent increase in students' learning of a foreign language habit these days is mainly influenced by the aim of owning overseas properties or professional reason.
To begin with, 1 out of every 3 teachers of foreign languages in Britain believes that students learn a foreign language for travelling. But conversely, regarding the effect it has to recent changes, it represents the lowest proportion, with only 3% of all teachers think so. Besides, the purpose of work or business accounts for learning according to 26% of teachers, and 19% think that they increased recently. On the other hand, just below one-fifth of all teachers believe that students' main reason for learning a new language to buy properties. However, the figure becomes as high as one-third when it comes to its effect.
