Children are generally more successful in foreign language studies than adults. Thus, it is better to learn languages in childhood. Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

According to new studies,
people
believe if someone wants to learn a new
language
it is better to do it when you are young because it is easier than when they grow up. I absolutely agree with
this
statement and
this
essay will discuss some reasons for it.
To begin
with, humans at a younger age have fewer things to do and they are not as busy as their parents because they do not have a job.
Thus
,
this
will help them to spend more
time
studying and working on a new
language
or whatever they want.
For example
, when I was a child, I would go to
school
from 8 in the morning to 2, after that I had a whole
time
to study English because in elementary
school
you do not have to do a lot of homework.
Therefore
, older
people
do not have much free
time
like their children.
Secondly
, most of the kids are learning a new
language
from
school
which is part of their mandatory education plan.
This
means, the
school
will force students to do their homework and
this
will help to learn to go faster.
For instance
, in Canada, pupils have to learn French in some schools, and
as a result
, they have to take tests and exams for that subject, which means, those kids have to learn and do well in that.
Hence
, forcing and reminding from
school
is really important to help learn a new
language
. To conclude, I believe
people
in their childhood can improve their
language
skills by learning foreign languages because they have more
time
to study
instead
of older
people
and having a new
language
course in
school
can really help them.
