Hello!
Well know I have not updated much, but lately I'm the head! with so many things to do, now you'll write when I release this month so heavy.
Since the moment I do not have my MP4
The European Union believes that learning languages \u200b\u200bat an early age can be very beneficial for children. In a study released in 2006 concluded that when learning new languages \u200b\u200bdevelop their language skills, better assimilated all languages \u200b\u200b(including maternal) and learn about other cultures and ways of thinking that can help their overall development.
Knowledge of other languages, particularly English, allows people to communicate with other people and get information that until now has been "Banned" for the English, simply because they know the language.
A child can easily learn a second (or third) language from tiny and, although they often have more problems to start talks soon diversify the words as the language they are speaking.
Now a child can learn English naturally if you have that language as a language family (who speaks the father or mother), if you live in a country where they speak the language for a couple of years or more if is looked after by a babysitter who speaks English for several hours a day or attending a school they are given large number of subjects (if not most) in this language. Instead,
that children receive one or two English classes per week.
The EU itself, the study that said, states that "the evidence suggests that early learning, to make it right, can not be left solely in the hands of teachers and schools."
I tell a personal experience: On a visit to a school a few weeks ago when children start English lessons at age 4, a mother complained to the manager school that started at age 3 because her daughter was going to lose the continuity of English classes that had started in the nursery.
The director replied that the reality is that this year English at this age began at the request of parents (before beginning in primary school), but not because they really learn much. A
study published two years ago and conducted by the University of Barcelona evaluated the level of English achieved in children who had begun classes for eight years and in children who began at age eleven. The result was thatthe eleven years had higher both in writing and in conversation.
The director of the study concluded that
"in immersion conditions young children are like sponges, absorbing the language around them. But in terms of student learning and contact with the tongue is so small that they can not absorb " .
In short, learning English is beneficial to the general lexicon of children, helps the understanding of other cultures and helps to understand the information coming from most corners of the world, the sooner you start, the better. However, to learn it need to live with English, as if another language with which to communicate.weekly classes are therefore requesting that both parents and some schools advertise are not the appropriate method for learning English.
Personally I see no problem in that young children do English if these classes are fun and make them play, but if not well almost prefer (I personally) that exploit their high ability of learning to play ( and learn to play).
