As the world becomes more global and technologically advanced, fluency in English is essential for achieving better employment opportunities.

The score is 0.209 which is resided between 0.00 – 0.25, that means the correlation is very weak and sig. the score is 0.494. If this result is compared with the confidence level that is 0.05 so that sig. score 0.494 > 0.05. it can be concluded that there is no significant correlation between two variables.
