in #life6 years ago

Hi to all the Steemit community!
Since i was a child i liked a lot the languages and I have a facility to learning it. In the case of english i learned by listening music and watching tv shows with subtitles.
A year ago I discovered the Korean culture and decided to learn the language, even when isn´t easy because the alphabet, I like it so much and I’m trying to do the best to learn it.

Today I want to share you the benefits of learning a second language:

  1. Improve your Brain: When you are bilingual your brain trains so that memory improves, delays aging and keeps the brain active. In fact, research has been conducted in which it was shown that managing a second language improves the ability to learn any other subject, it also helps us to easily switch from one task to another, which helps in making decisions as well as increasing the size of the same.
