Explanation:

The only word that needs to be capitalized in this sentence, besides the first word of the sentence, is English. Languages should always be capitalized. Names of school subjects are never capitalized (unless they appear in a title or are a language). You capitalize "chair" only when the title precedes a name, like Chair Smith. Otherwise, it should be lowercase.
