"Learning a new language can open doors—to your next career, to a previously unknown part of your community, and to the world. Montgomery College’s world languages program gives students the skills they need to succeed in an increasingly globalized world. Language study not only develops your oral and written communication skills, it also offers opportunities to think critically and analyze cultural products and practices that might differ from your own. Our courses teach students linguistic and sociolinguistic skills that enable them to connect with different speakers, cultures, and communities, both locally and globally." - MC World Languages
