Five benefits of learning a new language
From: WRAL Digital Solutions
While learning a new language can be challenging at any age, studies have shown the earlier a person learns a new language, the easier it will be. Additionally, research shows bilingual people have an easier time with several key brain functions such as reading comprehension, understanding math concepts and using logic.
Whether you’re studying Spanish, French, Mandarin or Arabic, learning a new language can simultaneously enhance the mind in other areas. The following are proven benefits of learning a new language beyond bilingualism that may inspire you to enroll your child in dual language immersion.
1. Increased academic performance
2. Opens up new opportunities
3. Cultivates cultural awareness
4. Improves mental health
5. Enhanced communication & problem solving skills
