I definitely agree. I choose to study CS in English because of this. CS is made to be taught in English. I have a friend who was struggling in English and when she applied for a job the interviewer didn't even asked how her English was, all the interviewer questions were in English.


I once had a job interview at Opera (the browser) in Oslo. They said: "Ok we want you to work here, but you _really_ need to improve your English." That was a couple of years ago and it was literally the first time I spoke more then one sentence in English in a conversation outside of School, haha :D Since then I did improve it quite a lot.
