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? Do you think there more advantages than disadvantages?
At
this
present time, Researchers think that it would more beneficial for children
to learn another language
other than their mother tongue in primary school rather than secondary school. In my opinion, the disadvantages of learning a second
language
outweigh their advantages and there are far more downsides than upsides in this
case. In this
essay, I will illustrate how teaching a foreign language
at a primary institution can help develop their creativity and meanwhile, I will prove that the contemporary educational system
is not ready to take this
step.
Firstly
, educating students in a primary institution can be beneficial to the development of different aspects of their brain and more specifically helps them to be more creative. To illustrate this
, recent studies have shown that children
under 12 who are bilingual tend to find more creative solutions. This
shows that learning another language
while you are in primary school can help develop your creative mind better. Therefore
, educating students at primary schools will help them develop a creative mind.
On the other hand
, learning another language
through the contemporary educational system
can be hard and it can be quite frustrating to children
. For instance
, research that has been done recently shows that the modern educational system
has not been efficient in teaching such
courses. Thus
, our modern educational system
doesn't have the capabilities to effectively teach a second
language
to students.
In summary, It is very well-known that children
who are bilingual are far more creative than children
who are not, but educational systems at the moment don't have the ability to teach a new language
effectively. Thus
, improving the methods of learning in schools are highly recommended.Submitted by tsp10majidi on
