TOPIC: EDUCATION TRUANCY IN CHILDREN 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?

It is sometimes argued that

children

's exposure to foreign

languages

is better from elementary school than later.

Although

there can be no doubt that it is a great benefit for

children

to learn foreign

languages

, I hold

of

Change preposition

the belief that early exposure to foreign

languages

will do more good than harm. On the one hand, allowing

children

to participate in foreign

language

classes early can promote many effects. The first advantage of

children

's brains are still programmed to absorb their mother tongue, which facilitates learning other

languages

more easily.

On the contrary

, adolescents will be limited by their

language

awareness, so learning a foreign

language

will be more difficult.

This

is perfectly illustrated in the case of a 7-year-old child who can speak

English

more fluently than a 17-year-old.

Therefore

, a 15-year-old's

English

acquisition is somewhat more limited than a 6-year-old's because the 15-year-old already has the foundation of the "mother tongue". Another advantage is that elementary school students' schedules are more flexible than other school levels.

This

can be explained by the fact that, at the elementary levels, only short lessons are allowed, with little lesson content, and the main focus is on play.

For example

, the content of lessons from elementary schools will be from 5 to 7 chapters. For university levels, a subject will usually have 9-12 chapters.

Therefore

,

children

's participation in foreign

language

learning from an early age will maintain their enthusiasm, progress, and efficiency in learning faster than that of young adults.

On the other hand

,

this

practice may highlight a legitimate concern. The first limitation is related to the lack of specialized teachers to teach students.

Language

teachers in primary schools are often unqualified and may not have the necessary

language

skills.

This

leads to

children

learning the wrong

languages

.

For example

,

children

learning

English

in non-specialized centers causes

children

to misunderstand that

language

and the consequences later on are very difficult for

children

to change.

Thus

,

this

problem can only be solved when there are experts teaching

children

In conclusion,

although

there are many benefits associated with

children

participating in

English

learning at an early age, I believe that the limitations brought about by

this

trend are more important. It is advised that

children

's learning of foreign

languages

requires more support from schools and parents so that

children

have a good foundation
