what language does venezuela speak?

I have a project about Venezuela due next week, and I need to include information on the language spoken there. Knowing the official language is a crucial part of my report, and I need it to complete the project. Can someone tell me what language is spoken in Venezuela and provide the source where this information can be found? Thanks so much—I'll award 10 points to whoever gives the correct answer first!

The official language of Venezuela is Spanish, but there are more indigenous dialects spoken as well.

Here in Venezuela we speak Spanish, it is our official language and most our population speaks it. However we have different accents as happens in every country with every language:

In the west part of the country, in the areas that are border with Colombia people speak Spanish very similar to Colombia Spanish, sometimes it sounds like they are singing when they are talking.

In the East part they speak really fast, sometimes it is hard to understand, in this area are many oil companies so you can find business people and professionals who speak English but just this kind of people.

In the south of the country, in the Amazon Jungle border to Brazil, there are still aboriginal people who speak their native language.

In the North part of the country, where there are the most important cities (Caracas, Valencia, Maracay, Barquisimeto) there are many companies, so a lot of people from business area speak English too but just for work reasons.

In the tourist areas as Margarita Island you can find that people related to tourist business speak English too.

However Venezuela is not like another countries, as Costa Rica for example, where you can find that any taxi driver speaks English, here it is very difficult to find a taxi driver speaking English. English knowledge is usually associated to college degree people.

About Portuguese, here the only people I know who speak Portuguese are the people who came from Portugal and stablished stores here as Bakerys, their sons nd daughters usually learn Poertuguese from parents, same that happens in any other country.

We have here some schools/high schools in Caracas (captial city of Venezuela) where education is giving in two languages, for example: Colegio Jefferson (Spanish and English) and Colegio Humboldt (Spanish and German).
