What language would be the most helpful to learn for someone who wants to go into the International Development Sphere?
I want to apply to a language internship where I do an immersive language program and am having trouble choosing a language. There isn't really one that stands out to me, I just really want to be sure I choose a language that will be helpful in my future aspirations. I do not fully know what I want to do when I graduate, I am currently a 3rd year at UCLA, but my major is International Development. I definitely want to work in that area or maybe the state department? I am just not sure what languages would be helpful or that are used a lot abroad/ are well known.

Hello, Please can I ask about your website. I'm a young adult who has just finished further education - sports science. I'm now seeking to expand upon this for various reasons & I've been seeking a website to advertise myself in effect yet it seems to be a struggle to find such a site. I'm seeking to advertise myself not only in the UK but internationally for digital online work such as transcribing or such like. At the moment I am currently studying to gain a secondary language - Spanish via edX also. Any advice would be most welcome.
Main aim is for my CV, I want to appeal to international stages and organizations. One issue is here in the UK the education and work system especially if your on sick leave or such is very difficult due to our poor infrastructure
How much do colleges actually care about seeing 4 years of language classes?
I’m conflicted with planning the rest of my high school schedule. I am looking into college for either an area of history or film which I know are two very different options. I’ve also been looking into combining these two with a job as a documentarian. I have currently been contemplating either continuing the 3rd and 4th years of my language or opting to be in other arts and portfolio classes that could help me when applying to art/film school. I’ve definitely been looking into uofmich as I live in Michigan but I’m really not even sure if it would be worth going there if I just want a film degree I could get somewhere else. I’m currently planing on taking an almost fully DP course schedule, the only things that would be non-DP would be my choir class and my Language/Portfolio arts class. Would it be smarter to keep my options open in college admissions and just take my 4 year language, or should I just go into the arts classes I actually want to take? How much do colleges really care about seeing a 4 year language?

What resources are out there for learning Hebrew?
Hello! I am a freshman in high school and I am very passionate about learning foreign languages. I’m considering a career in linguistics when I am older, but I have hit a bit of a road block. I managed to teach myself Spanish to fluency over the past two years. I had access to books in Spanish, movies in Spanish, and a lot of my friends also speak Spanish. These resources allowed me to become proficient in the language however Hebrew is a different story. The only method I’ve been using to learn Hebrew is Duolingo, but that can only get you so far. How do I become fluent in Hebrew with so few resources at my dispense?
