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

In many countries, these days, it has been a debatable issue that children should learn a new

language

in secondary school

instead

of the primary. In my opinion, they should start learning from the elementary level as the advantages of

this

far outweigh its disadvantages. Admittedly,

one

of the main disadvantages of

this

trend is that most children might get confused between the foreign

language

and the native

one

. Indeed, many school children are not enough mature to learn two languages at the same time, and sometimes, they get confused between their native

language

and the other

language

.

Also

, they often do not pronounce the words very well and dialect it.

For instance

, in the recent poll by the Times of India found that 55% of primary school children do not speak properly their mother tongue and another

one

as they are not enough mature to cope up with both languages;

also

, they mix the

language

. Despite mentioning the above disadvantage, in my view, there are many advantages to

this

de

velopment.

Suggestion

developer

Firstly

, they become multilingual or bilingual

instead

of monolingual. To elucidate, it is scientifically proved that learning at an early age, many children learn many languages rather than learning only

one

language

.

This

will be beneficial to them in the future for having a good job. Another positive side of

this

trend is that the majority of children become good solver and smart.

For instance

, in a recent article by the BBC News revealed that schoolchildren who learn more than 2 languages at the primary level are much smarter, can solve any puzzle quickly and become multitasking rather than those who start at the secondary level. In conclusion,

although

learning a new

language

becomes the difficult for some children because of maturity, I believe that the advantages far outweigh

th

is disadvantages b

Suggestion

these disadvantages

this disadvantage

ecause not only do they become smarter and multi Tasker, but

also

knowing more than 2 languages gives them the chance of having a better future and jobs.
