The benefits of extracurricular activities

Abstract

Any conference or round-table discussion aims to elicit a student's language behaviour. These activities are needed both by teachers and students to know how well somebody else uses foreign languages in free speaking activities and how much a student needs to master his own speaking abilities. Moreover, extracurricular activities aim to answer why they learn foreign languages. From the first-year students to postgraduates with more academic and professional ambitious there is one thing they have in common – through learning foreign languages they hope to achieve a goal to improve future professional opportunities.
