Whether you're looking for incredible job opportunities or even romance, learning English may be your short cut to success! All over the world, countless lives being improved with English. Maybe you can't imagine where English could take you, so take a peak at these two true success stories of how English drastically changes lives.



Sweet success
Tyler used to have a lot of regrets in his life ?he didn't study hard in middle school and didn't go to college after high school. But then English changed his life, and he wouldn't trade where he is now for anything.



After working as a waiter for several years after high school, Tyler decided to begin night classes at a local college. To pay for tuition, he took a day job that wasn't too stressful ?as a security guard for a multi-national company. Though he was majoring in computer science, he knew the importance of English and studied it hard. At work, he would sit at his desk flipping through English flashcards, and the native English speakers who worked at his company would often go to him for help because he was the only guard who spoke English.

One American was touched at work by Tyler's desire to learn English. As an English trainer, she began to help him improve. Suddenly, before they knew it, English became not only the language of their communication ?but also their love! Now they've been together for over one year, and Tyler studies even harder knowing that his future will depend on his level of fluency. With love in his life as well as talks of moving to America, Tyler feels his life has changed so much ?all because of English!

Dream job
When Samuel began studying English at 10 years old, he never imagined where it would take him. Although he majored in computer science, it was those English skills he worked hard to build that gave him the edge when he applied to the company of his dreams - Microsoft.

Now as a senior engineer at one of Microsoft's global support centers, most of his daily work ?finding solutions for his customers ?is done in English. In fact, 80 percent of his customers don't speak his native language, so clear communication in English is vital in his role.

And now that he has this dream position, he won't easily give it up. The working environment and benefits provided by this corporate giant cannot easily be matched. And Samuel couldn't be happier. He adds, "Without English, I wouldn't have my job or my friends, and wouldn't be able to enjoy the same lifestyle, so of course English has changed my life!"

So whether you're looking for love or money, fame or fortune, English could be just the ticket you need to change your life forever!



不论你正想找一个难以获得的工作机会或甚至于是爱情，学习英文也许是你的成功快捷方式！全世界难易计算的人都在改善自己的英文。也许你不能想象英文对你而言有什么用，所以你要看看这两个真实的成功故事如何使英文戏剧化的改变你的人生。



甜美的成功
Tyler曾对他的生活有很多的后悔-他念中学的时后并没有努力念书然后也没有继续念大学。但是当英文要改变他人生的时候，他将不会像现在一样在这里工作。



在高中毕业之后当了几年的服务生，Tyler决定开始在当地大学选修一些夜间课程。为了支付学费，他早上做一些不需要太大压力的工作-在一家外国公司做保全人员。虽然他高中主修计算机科学，他也知道英文的重要及念英文的困难。在工作的时后，他会坐在椅子上快速的翻阅英文小卡片，然后在他的公司工作的外国人会请他帮忙因为他是唯一一位会说英文的保全人员。

一位美国人在工作的时候的知Tyler渴望学习英文。就成为一位英文训练员，她开始帮助他改善他的英文。突然间，他们体会到，英文变成不只是他们沟通的语言-而且他们相爱了！现在他们已经在一起整整一年，然后Tyler更努力知晓他的未来将会决定于他英文是否流利。Tyler觉得他的人生改变很多-全部都是因为英文！

梦想的工作
在Samuel在他10岁的时候开始学习英文，他从未想象过未来将何去何从。虽然他主修计算机科学，但他努力提升英文程度使他能应用到他梦想的公司-Microsoft。

现在他是一位在Microsoft其中一间全球支持中心的高级工程师，大部分他每天的例行工作-设法帮助顾客解决问题-都必须使用英文。事实上，80%的顾客都不是说他们自己国家的语言，因此在他的角色当中用英文沟通是极为重要的。


现在他已经在他梦想的职位工作，他将不会轻易放弃。很难找得到像他这样的工作环境及福利。Samuel不可能会比较快乐。他强调，"要是没有英文，我将不会有工作或朋友，也不会享受一样的生活型态，当然英文已经改变了我的生活！"

因此不论你正在寻找爱情或是金钱，名利或是财运，英文可能会是你需要永远改变你生活的一张长期饭票！
