Some expertsbelieve 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?

A group of people thinks that it’s better to learn

languages

when you are a child than do it at a teenager’s age.

This

essay will attempt to elaborate on the major benefits and drawbacks of learning a language in primary school.

First

of all, it’s important to outline several advantages of studying foreign

languages

for children. At

first

, children can remember more information and learn new things more easily rather than adults. Some scientists had written about

this

phenomenon and there were some experiments to prove

this

statement.

In addition

, children in primary school are not loaded with knowledge and extra information, so that the new material is easier to digest. At the same time, there is no motivation to learn foreign

languages

and no insight into the importance of knowing more than one language at a young age.

Furthermore

, youth cannot sit in one place for a long time, they want to play, run and etc. so they have no perseverance for learning

languages

. Another important point in

this

subject is that most of the information taught in primary school is quickly forgotten, so it’s no use to learn something that you will forget in several years. Taking everything into account, I could say that there is the same number of both advantages and disadvantages in learning

languages

at a young age. So, I can conclude that it is own business for each child and teenager when they want to start a new dialect. A person can start learning a new language any time he wants, at any youth.
