It depends on what you are accustomed to hearing. If you have grown up listening to only one dialect, any other dialect will seem strange at first, and some things about it will be hard to understand.

Why do people take British English?

If by take, you mean "learn", in part due to proximity to Britain (Europeans), cultural closeness to Britain (former colonies and members of the Commonwealth) and also the perceived higher prestige of British English compared to the American variety. This is changing and American forms of usage, accent and spelling are becoming more common in Europe, and in the British Commonwealth (US spelling in NZ for instance). Also, more wealthy people are more likely to want their children to attend university in the US rather than UK. Indeed, American forms are becoming more common in Britain itself. I can't answer for others but only for myself. I belong to a Commonwealth country and I chose to use British English even though we learnt both American and British English at school. For me,it helps me think better. I use more intelligent words and I can express myself better.American English confuses me with the changes in spelling and grammar. I've also seen the similarities between the way we speak from where I come and British English so it's easier to understand and relate.
