Learn a Language

Young kids have the incredible ability to absorb multiple languages—an ability that quickly begins to fade after childhood. The most current scientific research has proven that babies, toddlers and preschoolers are uniquely equipped to learn one or more languages with ease. Research also proves that young children who learn a language before the age of five tend to have superior reading, writing, analytical and social skills, as well as more extensive vocabularies than their monolingual peers. Early foreign language development in children is no longer considered a luxury. It can contribute to a young child’s cognitive development and also offers a serious advantage in the future of our increasingly global world.
