Heidi Maikov, the world's best-selling expert on maternity and parenting books, mentioned that the best time for children to start learning a second language is between two and a half and three years old, and many linguists have also put forward this point.
Because there is a concept called "language sensitive period", when children are 0-6 years old, their ability to learn languages is relatively strong, and it is easy to absorb new words and understand their meanings.
Children aged two and a half to three are just at this stage, and they have excellent opportunities to learn English. If a child grows up, for example, when he goes to primary school and his parents teach English, his mother tongue thinking has been fixed, and it will be more difficult to learn English if he establishes English thinking. Therefore, children learn English early.
Early English learning:
As a language, English needs to be refined and optimized step by step through accumulation and practice. The earlier you study, the more you accumulate and the richer your application experience, which will be beneficial to your child's future studies and employment.
Children are good at memorizing objective expressions by observing things and people around them, listening to sounds and watching scenes, forming subjective concepts in their minds and gradually forming a sound concept of meaning.
English enlightenment begins at the age of two and a half to three, and children at this age are more likely to accept the language and its "bearing" cultural elements, which also means that when learning English at this time, children can not only memorize vocabulary quickly, but also cultivate English thinking and a preliminary understanding of western culture from an early age.
In addition, children have good memory and strong imitation ability, and they can "accept everything according to the order" no matter what they teach. Language learning needs long-term vocabulary accumulation. Children learning a foreign language as early as possible is conducive to vocabulary accumulation and improve the fluency of language expression.
