Yes but they will need documents to be translated until they are fluent. I don’t agree with the government providing free lessons but immigrants should make every effort to educate themselves
@9L542773wks3W
Yes, but also UK language education should be better at teaching 2nd and 3rd languages to people with english as their first language.
@9KZG3BQ4wks4W
