Children learn through active engagement with their environment and interactive
experiences.

When learning a new language, children are more motivated through immersion and exposure to the language in their daily environment. They can learn more quickly when they are surrounded by people who speak the language they are trying to learn and when they have frequent opportunities to use the language in meaningful ways.

Therefore, regular conversations with caregivers, siblings, and teachers who speak the language can help children improve their vocabulary and develop their speaking and listening skills. But this must be done frequently- repetition is key to learning, especially for young learners. Frequent repetition encourages the reinforcement of new concepts which helps them to remember and integrate new information more efficiently.

In addition, reading books and telling stories in the target language can help children develop their vocabulary, comprehension, and grammar skills. Whereas, singing songs and reciting rhymes in the target language can help them learn new words and develop their pronunciation and intonation.

Overall, Immersing children in a language-rich environment, such as a bilingual preschool or daycare, can help them to develop their language skills more quickly and effectively. When young ones are exposed to a language in a supportive and engaging environment over long periods of time, it can help them to develop their speaking and writing skills as they mature.

These environments should also encourage play-based learning; playing games and engaging in language-rich activities can help children learn new words and concepts while having fun.

Lastly, don’t forget, the youth learn languages at their own pace and in their own way.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to language learning, as every child learns differently. Therefore, it is important to tailor learning experiences to each child’s unique needs and interests which can be achieved with private tutoring and small group classes.

Lastly, don’t forget positive reinforcement; praising children for their efforts and successes can help to build their confidence and motivation to keep learning!
