Forced to Learn Languages, Students Face Identity Crisis?!

Cultural alienation refers to the phenomenon where individuals begin to feel separated or alienated from their original culture or community. This can occur due to several factors, such as migration. When someone moves to a new place, they will learn and adopt the new culture, which over time they started to forgetting their original culture slowly. A similar thing happens with language; students who move away to continue their education, either to a different city or country. They will learn a new language and adopt different ways of thinking and perspectives. And it'll be bad when they can't manage that and started to forgetting their language.

Although learning languages may cause an identity crisis for some students, the process also offers valuable opportunities for growth and self-development. When students learn a new language, they not only adapt to different environments but also develop the ability to understand and appreciate perspectives. This process allows them to form deeper connections with others or friends and enrich their life experience. The challenges that appears from learning a new language should be seen as an essential step towards building a stronger and more comprehensive identity. 

Therefore, actions from the teachers and parents itself such as guidance, supervision, and education can serve and help as initial steps for advancing language learning in education, making students can master multiple languages without losing or forgetting with their culture and personal identity.
