This

essay will argue that the benefits of learning a new foreign

will outweigh its drawbacks. Learning another

for young

who have not experienced a busy life

as well as

have an empty mind to be filled by new languages are the main reasons for its advantages

while

some people believe that learning at early ages could be harmful to

children

's future. First of all, a

lot

of

children

have a mind that can learn new

things

in the fastest and quickest way. Since youngsters' minds are wired to learn new

things

at an early age, when they are faced with a new

language

's grammar and vocabulary, they can learn without any concerns,

while

the vast majority of adults will have difficulty learning new

things

because of their exhausted minds.

For instance

, based on a survey in Iran in 2015, the learning rate of adults in comparison to

children

in primary schools was three-quarters lower than them. Second of all, daily basis and workloads will create an atmosphere with a

of stress without any free

but young individuals do not experience

situation and have more free

for themselves that they can only focus on learning.

However

, when they are in secondary

they face

different tasks which bring them a

of tension and stress.

For example

, in my

school

, about 75% of students in secondary schools only have free

time

on weekends when they have to do their homework for the next week and they do not have free

time

for other activities. Some people believe that if

children

are taught at an early age before going to a higher level of education,

this

situation could be harmful. Since a

lot

of youngsters need to play and have free

time

for themselves, learning a

language

other than their mother tongue

language

can create a situation in which

children

only have to learn and do not have enough

time

for playing, so they are threatened by some mental illness.

However

, these days most methods for teaching other languages are based on playing games which means that it can not only be more effective but

also

can be joyful for young pupils.

For example

, learning English by watching a musical

in primary schools in Iran is known as one of the best ways to learn English. In conclusion, learning a

language

rather than our mother tongue at an early age has more benefits

instead

of its drawbacks in accordance to

children

having more free

for learning and their fresh mind for new

things

However

, learning a new

language

at primary

school

is not harmful to

because of new methods of teaching.
