Why is it impotant to know a second language?

Well my dear friends   and students , i just want to lead this conversation to the point of how important is for all of us to know a second language,and if this is English ,much better...
So i would love you to give me some comments and express what you feel toward this subject.
First ,we created some work in our classes ,where you gave me your first impressions to a determined subject,all your works were really good,and i really appreciated your
 time and effort,but now we have to keep going and ,comment about your classmates's work.
So i'd want you to come to this site and stand your comments,at least once a week
I'll wait for you guys.
