Latin is a great way to learn English, while it's true that English is a mutt of a language that borrows from everybody, the language English borrows the most from is Latin. Close to half of English is Latin, every single word that ends in -tion comes from Latin, most of our prefixes and suffixes come from Latin. Skill with Latin will dramatically improve a person's skill with English. And it give the person a chance to learn about Roman culture which is one of the building blocks of American history.
