Some experts believe that it is better for children to begin learning a foreign language at primary school rather than secondary school.Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?

Scholars have recently debated an issue of whether or not a foreign

language

should be taught in elementary

school

instead

of higher

level

. There are, certainly, some consequences of teaching foreign

language

in primary

school

, both positive and negative results. These points of views will be elaborated through the following paragraphs.

To begin

with, scholars believe that understanding a foreign

language

in elementary

school

may contribute a more incredible communication skill of pupil in the future regarding their ability to catch up insight is incredibly fascinating during

this

period.

This

phenomenon is related to a fact that elementary

school

period is considered as “golden period” of pupils since their brain cells grow remarkably connecting one cell another in the whole brain hemisphere. Indonesian pupils, who learn English while they are in primary schools,

for example

, can speak English more fluently than those who do not get the same treatment at the same

level

. Despite, the gain, there can be a lack stumbling learning an international

language

in elementary schools. Teachers’ ability is the real example. Most of the teachers in primary schools are generalists and get used to deal with more general subjects in

school

. By asking them to teach foreign languages, English,

for example

, may be a difficulty in conveying knowledge over that

such

specific subject to students. And

therefore

, when entering higher

level

school

, there will be a wide variety of students understanding in English and will lead to a problem of adjusting what particular topics should be given to students in the higher

level

. All in all, understanding foreign speaking in primary

school

can be achieved through maximising the golden period of students.

However

, the capability of teachers

also

must be considered in order to ensure the subject distributed well to students.
