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?
Language
is something that starts when you are born, the first
word is from your mother tongue. At the age of 6, you’ll be in primary school
to start your education on basic language
and later on
get into a foreign Add a comma
on,
language
in secondary school
. But some experts believe that it is better to begin
learning a foreign language
in primary school
rather than secondary school
, I say that there is some argument for this
saying that this
does not outweigh the disadvantages.
First
, primary school
helps the children
learn how to read, write, and speak to improve on advancing to secondary school
, where they will learn more about how to speak other languages. But experts say that learning foreign languages should be first
, although
there are some cases where some children
are gifted and some are regular, the children
themselves would be at a disadvantage because they only knew the language
that they could speak now, learning a new language
take away from their leisure time to spend on other subjects that are important to advance to the next level of education. Even though some parents would agree to this
, this
could set them apart from what’s good and bad for their children
to be at.
But after secondary school
, the language
appears to be simpler to hear and speak because they have learned the basics in primary and they can become bilingual or multilingual with translation books and with the help of teachers to learn and improve more on their language
so that they could use this
to perform on a standardized college test.
In a nutshell, it’s too soon to let your students learn a new language
on your first
day of school
, rather than just learn as you go, then
start the journey as you go and the path you’ll be.Submitted by jakelong16091994 on
