Title:Take a lesson from the Danes

The Danish population is about the same size as that of Israel. All Danes speak English. When I asked them why, they replied, "How many people speak Danish?" In an age when the world is flat and trade is becoming more globalized, for Israeli children to grow into adults who can compete effectively they must be able to speak English fluently. Best wishes!
