Why should you go to a language school?

It seems obvious that in order to have control over your foreign language study you will have to take lessons. Of course you can make progress even if you don't go to a school but are you sure the way you are learning is the best? And how can you tell whether your pronunciation is correct?
Let's see what benefits are there for you. First of all, if you decide to attend a language course, that's a sign that you take your study seriously. You will have to study on a regular basis and this will give you a pattern of actions, which will convert into habits.
Your teacher will supervise your study; correct your mistakes and he also will give you hints on how to study. This is better than just talking to native speakers because in real life communication people tend to ignore mistakes even if the partner makes some. That way you never can be sure whether your sentences are grammatically correct or suitable for the purpose.
