The Documentary

If you're young and living in a tough inner city neighbourhood - why spend time learning a language? Ernestine Lyons of Linglobal explains how this can give you a voice, a sense of self worth and connections. "[Learning a language] really does give you a voice. It says, I can communicate clearly and I'm a person of value." Photo: A tourist asks for directions Credit: Getty Images
