Hello saurabh,

Hope you're doing well.

Well, many colleges in DU provide you with certificate courses or diplomas in various foreign languages- german, spanish, french, etc:. You can definitely join a diploma course if your college is providing it.

I myself had done it in my 2nd year of graduation, there's just one issue, that is, time management. If you can manage your time between bcom hons and language. But, it's always good to know how to communicate in a foreign language for your professional life and career.

Hope my answer helps you.

Hey Aspirant,

If you want be the English teacher and also want to teach the foreign language, then the first step of becoming a teacher is to get a B.Ed degree. It is the foremost requirement if you want to be the teacher. Do an undergraduate course with English being one of your subject and also get a certified course in the foreign language of your choice. Clear the adequate levels for being the teacher of that language, then you will be eligible to teach in both the languages. There are various options for learning foreign language, you can opt for french, spanish or the Chinese, they have better job opportunities.

Also consider JNU, Delhi as it offers undergraduate course in the foreign languages and it is far cheaper than any of the universities or institutions.

We cannot term any particular language as the Best. But given its usage, by far French takes the top position between French and Spanish. French is spoken in 29 countries while Spanish is spoken in 20 countries. The truth is English owes half of its vocabulary to French. French being one of the top spoken Languages in the world gives an access to no.of opportunities across the world. So if you are looking to make a career abroad, French might come handy.
