Some believe that students should begin learning a language very early in school while others think these subjects should be taught later. Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.
Studies suggest that multilingual people excel at a much higher rate than those who are monolingual. Because of
this
, there has been pressure towards the education system to add in the curriculum language acquisition. However
, it sparked a debate on whether it should be implemented earlier or later. In this
essay, I'm going to cite an argument on each side and my opinion on this
matter.
There has been a number of research that shows the advantages of learning another dialect
at an early age such
as better intonation, enunciation, lexical resources and understanding. They have the ability to naturally converse with others and be more culturally adept. Not only that, children have much less responsibility, more cognitive adaptability and more time to be schooled without any distractions that older children may experience. Their natural curiosity and interest also
allow them to be better at absorbing the dialect
and naturally applying it in
their tongue.

On the other hand
, many people believe that delaying language acquisition would be best, due to
the fact that children need to have more brain maturity in order for them to cope with another dialect
better. Not only that, being educated in another dialect
at a later age would promote better understanding with other people around them and will encourage them to have more connections with others. Nevertheless
, peer pressure, academic responsibilities and extracurricular activities increase as years go by and oftentimes compete with time dedicated to multilingual education.
My opinion however
is to have a balanced approach in this
matter. A foundational literacy skill approach in the early years and mastery as they continue their academic journey. Through this
, the task of learning another tongue would become less heavy and more manageable. As they say, "Art is a mastery of skill" and so is language acquisition.Submitted by decxelnarjoyragas on
