Some exerts 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?

However

this

is a good idea. There are many advantages to

Firstly

This

solves one of the many reasons why children learning a new

cannot get better at it, as it is caused by their being startled by the amount of new information.

Furthermore

therefore

if the appropriate approach is taken in order to make the children interested in the

language

, it will be easy as easy as ABC for them to learn it.

Nevertheless

, nothing comes without drawbacks, and learning foreign

in primary

is no exception. As funny as it may sound, children that age may be troubled with

and so

their progress in learning both languages will be slowed down.

For example

, in Vietnamese, “chú” and “bác” are two different terms, one refers to your father’s younger brothers and the other refers to his older brothers;

however

, in English, there is only one word for both, which is “uncle”. So if the children have yet to differentiate between chú and bác, but have been taught about uncle, he may have difficulties with his own mother tongue.

Although

the drawback sounds much of a problem, it can easily be overcome with solid learning and teaching.

Thus, it

is quite easy to conclude that the advantages of beginning to learn a foreign

far outweigh the disadvantages.
