English has become an international language and it is used for many purpose. Our country is not the exception and Ecuadorians need to learn to communicate in English, otherwise Ecuador would get behind the new and latest information. Adults have to conscious that English is a tool to be better in their jobs, and teenagers should prepare themselves by learning English to be competetive in this world. Ecuador has many wonderful places to be visited; unfortunately, it is neither well promoted nor advertised. Ecuadorians should have a good level of English so they can explain and advertide our country to foreigns from diverse cultures and nationalities. Schools, universities and institutes that offer English as an academic subject should have good English programs and very well trained teachers, so their students are able to accomplish their objective which is communication in English
