any issues learning foreign language in india ---Short-Term Visa Motivation

Image
  One of the biggest behavioural challenges in India’s foreign language market is that many students learn a language only as a visa requirement , not as a long-term skill. 1️⃣ Language as a “Ticket,” Not a Skill Many students start learning: German for study or job visas in Germany French to increase immigration points for Canada Japanese for technical trainee or job opportunities in Japan The mindset becomes: “I just need B1 to get my visa.” Instead of: “I need this language for long-term career growth.” 2️⃣ Trend-Driven Enrollment Cycles Whenever: Immigration rules change PR policies tighten Visa processing slows Enrollments fluctuate drastically.
