Learning a language is always an enriching
experience for all ages, but children have more abilities because their brains
assimilate the knowledge much more easily than an adult.
Nevertheless, taking a child to an
all-English school is not a good idea because our children will not receive the
required education to learn their mother tongue properly. They could be
confused when they tried to speak in Spanish and even, it would be more likely
that they had learning difficulties in writing or speaking their own language.
For that reason, I think it would be better to take our children to a bilingual
school instead of an all-English one. Moreover, some experts say that a
bilingual education has several advantages. Children who go to these schools are
more creative and have better facility for solving problems. In addition, they
would also have more skills for learning other language and communication
strategies.
However, this kind of education cannot
be affordable for everybody. Besides, some of the bilingual schools are a bit
snobbish and it is necessary to consider if that environment will be the most
suitable for raising our children. Due to this, I think we should choose our
sons’ school carefully and think not only about what is the best option for
their education, but also about what is the best way for becoming a person with
good values and feelings.
