We delve into this innovative new learning programme with Simon Crane, Head Master of Brighton College Dubai, looking at what it involves and what the benefits are for your child. Firstly, we examine the benefits of learning a second language at a young age.
THE ADVANTAGES OF A SECOND LANGUAGE
When children learn a second language, it is extremely beneficial for their minds. Studies indicate that acquiring a second language, especially one that children must use daily, leads to youngsters who are much better able to maintain their concentration, staying focused despite outside interruptions and distractions than their peers who are monolingual. This strength gives little ones distinct cognitive advantages, allowing them to stay ‘in the zone’ for greater lengths of time, which sets them up to achieve their potential academically and find success in a school environment.
THE BENEFITS OF LEARNING ENGLISH
English is the most widely spoken language in the world, with more than 1.5 billion speakers around the globe. By supporting children in acquiring English as their second language, you’ll be giving them access to a global community and the ability to communicate effectively in every continent. Aside from helping them to settle into new friendship groups and learning environments in Dubai, it also opens up many opportunities for travel and employment around the world in their future lives.
