Learning English as a Second Language

Learning English is not so difficult as my students from public school say. The problem is that they do not have a good reason for learning it. That`s true! The best thing about learning a language is the real possibility to communicate and stay in another country, but they cannot afford it. The only reason for studying English to them is the fact that they need it just to find a job. It is very sad because learning a language requires a lot of time and dedication and at the end of this process remains the students question: what I need it for ? When I`m going to use it ? Most of them will not even start college and some will not finish high school, so motivation is the first step for a teacher. But What can I say to them? At first I say that globalization is the opportunity for getting their lives better. I don`t know if it works.
