Research consistently shows that children who learn a second language early gain significant cognitive, social and academic advantages. Here are five compelling reasons to enrol your child this term.
1. The earlier the better — Children under 10 absorb languages with remarkable ease, picking up pronunciation and grammar naturally without formal study.
2. Boosts academic performance — Studies show bilingual children outperform monolingual peers in reading, maths and problem solving.
3. Builds confidence — Learning to communicate in another language gives children a huge confidence boost and a sense of achievement.
4. Opens future doors — In Australia’s growing Asian-Pacific economy, Mandarin and Japanese speakers have a significant career advantage.
5. It’s genuinely fun — LCF Fun Languages uses music, games, drama and movement. Children don’t even realise they’re learning, they’re just having a great time. Classes are available across Australia in French, Spanish, Mandarin, Italian, German and Japanese. Find a program near you or enquire about bringing one to your school.
