When I was in Starbucks, there was group of probably early 20 something Europeans in front of me! 5 Swedes and this really pretty German girl. Their english was amazing. They all had accents, but more of a really pretty flavor to their speech, rather than something hindering their English.

It makes me sad to live in a country where learning another language isn't encouraged. I want to learn German. If I controlled the US education system, I'd make foreign language equally as important as English, math, science, history, etc. And give more choices at that. My school only let us take Spanish or French.

What would you change about your country's educational system if you could?
