Learn The Lingo!

1. Better academic performance: It has been proven that children who study foreign languages achieve better exam grades than their monolingual peers.

2. Increased confidence: Children who speak another language are more confident and interact more easily with people from other countries.

3. Improved career prospects: In the current economic climate the more skills we have, the better our chances of finding a good job. In our globalised world children who have learnt to speak another language will be highly sought after by employers.

4. Greater understanding of their first language: Children acquire a wider range of vocabulary and understand more easily how their own language works.

5. Cultural awareness: Children can make friends with people from other cultures and travel becomes much more rewarding.
