Some people argue that there must be requirement for students about learning a foreign language at school. I agree with this view because it is a great way to develop their brain and and there will be lots of advantages in their daily lives and academic careers.
Firstly, one of the best way to develop brain is keeping brain active by doing various activities such as doing calculation, learning new skills, and etc. Learning new language is the one of the best way to keep brain dynamic. That is why, requiring to learn foreign language would make them learning the chosen language and keeping their brain active. Consequently, over the time their brain neurons will develop much more complex connections and increase their IQ and general brain power. Generally, people that know multiple languages are generally perform better in complex tasks which require a brain power than the individuals speak single language.
On the other hand, foreign language is quite useful in our daily lives. If the students commence to learn language from the early age, when they travel other countries that will prevent them from facing issues that occur because of the language barrier. Furthermore, knowing another language will broad their sources which would be useful for especially academic career. For example, it is quite important to know English because most of the sources are in English and when the professionals need to do research they usually use English.
In conclusion, requiring to learn another language might be quite good option, because it has advantages such as increasing power of brain and helping them in a daily life.
