Why Should Children Learn A Second Language?
As a Parent, you want your children to have:
Better communication skills by being exposed to multiple languages and be more effective at communicating ideas. Bilingual kids are better at reasoning their way through complex ideas and then expressing them in a clear manner.
Develop skills that translate to other subjects including math and reading. Children that know multiple languages are more successful at math than children who speak just one language. Their reading skills also develop quicker than those of their monolingual counterparts.
Be more culturally aware by understanding other societies through language and see that the world is interconnected.
Show improved cognitive flexibility thus allowing them to go with the flow and be well-adjusted.
Display Enhanced creativity because shifting from language to language gives children the capacity to use information in new and different ways.
Improved memory by learning to retain more information.
Sharpen listening skills, which results in being able to follow directions and complete tasks in a more timely and accurate way.
This is the ultimate gift for your child.
