Why Cleveland is a Great Place to Study Language
Cleveland offers a variety of opportunities for people pursuing a foreign language education. The number of foreign born residents has increased by 5% in recent years. Currently, one in five of the city's residents were born outside the United States. This rate is expected to continue to grow in the future, increasing the need for interpreters, translators and bilingual educators. Cleveland is home to organizations devoted to languages, cultures, and foreign language education. In addition, festivals throughout the city allow students to experience a variety of cultures while in school. Information on some of these can be found at WorldWeb.com: Cleveland Festivals.
