Why is it important to learn a foreign language from early age and how to arrange that.
Your baby is undoubtedly a genius. At the age of a week, he was able to sit all by himself, and at the age of three he was already counting to ten and about the same time expressed a preference for Shostakovich over Stravinsky. Bravo! Does he speak English, though?
Learning a second language wearing Baby Dior booties is no longer news, but an abvious decision of forward-looking parents. It's simple. First, early investments mean early results: the earlier your amazing child starts learning a language, the greater will be their advantage during the competition for a precious place at Eton or Harvard. Second, your child is even more talented than you could ever imagine. All children are linguistic geniuses: unlike adults, they learn foreign languages naturally fast. However, this does not mean that a toddler should be immediately seated at the desk: they will learn quickly with little to no effort, even while playing - as long as there is a proper language environment. A professional — an English nanny or governess — will help you create one.
"The later, the worse. Preferably, the specialist is to start working with the child from the age of one. Then, by the age of three, the child will be able to speak English correctly and without an accent, " says Valentin Grogol, director of the Russian and Ukrainian offices of the international company English Nanny, which has been helping parents find employees for children to learn English for thirty years.
And not just him. "We have been working with English Nanny Agency for a few years now. In particular, the Agency helped us find a wonderful teacher from the UK, who helped children with school homework, including mathematics — says Angelika, the wife of Forbes businessman Herman Hahn. — Another nice moment: you can forget about the tedious bureaucracy with English Nanny. The company's employees will not only help you find a professional, but also they will take care of all the nuances of your specialist arrival to Russia - they will take care of visa, interview, placement."
Other families also appreciate such reliability and comfort, so they work with English Nanny. Recently, Grogol notes the following trend: "A nanny from England works with a child up to three years old, then they start working with a French nanny, and by the age of 4-5 another language is added. Some children are fluent in four languages by the age of seven. Russian, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian... We literally make children bilinguals — but without cramming, boring diagrams on the board. Our children do not learn the language, but live in it."
Recently, more and more English Nanny clients are targeting Chinese. "In this case, our company is looking for not just Chinese women, but Chinese women who have received a prestigious education in London and speak the Beijing dialect — Mandarin," says Valentin.
AN INCREDIBLE FACT: research has shown that before the age of five a person can even learn hieroglyphs.
The daughter of British foreign Minister Boris Johnson and granddaughter of Donald Trump are already learning them. It's time your child starts learning hieroglyphs as well: after all, China is one step away from becoming the number one economy.
