There are a lot of reasons to learn a foreign language: knowing more languages, in fact, opens the mind, brings people together and reduces the distances between people
Besides being obviously a winning plus in the workplace and employment. In the age of technology and globalization , English is the language per excellence. "Studying English at school at high levels is a must nowadays. Today's children, born in the era of globalization, will be the inhabitants of the world and the knowledge of foreign languages and English in particular, will be a fundamental requirement for them. The school is called to guarantee its children the right training.Today's children, born in the era of globalization, will be the inhabitants of the world and the knowledge of foreign languages and English in particular will be for them an even more fundamental and essential requirement, a passport for university and work.The school could offer alternative routes that allow students, at an early start of studying a foreign language, a moment of real growth in which young people develop the capacity to manage multiple languages for a long-life-learning.More and more institutions have included, among their activities, projects for language learning, organizing study trips or afternoon courses, giving children an additional English learning opportunity.To keep high motivation , a useful tool can be to set a goal, such as obtaining the certification of the level achieved in the knowledge of the language, a clear goal to be achieved and for which to engage.
It is useful, in fact, that children find spontaneity in studying and have simple opportunities to practice, showing themselves and others that they know how to use the language in everyday life, for example by watching a movie or having a conversation with a peer . But it is also important that the study of the language prepare the children to know how to grasp and to face the challenges of their future, such as studying experiences abroad, work opportunities for which a good knowledge of English is required or more simply the years of university where more and more space is reserved for teaching school subjects in English. What’s really the most effective method of learning English?The communicative approach is really the one of the most effective teaching methods. To understand the reasons for the success of the communicative method and with it the importance of conversation and the simulation of real situations in the classroom, just think about how you learn your mother tongue: LISTENING, ASSIMILATING AND SPEAKING. Only by going deeply in the language, you can learn naturally, just as children do. For this reason, thanks to role-plays and concrete simulations, teachers can facilitate the learning of students who can verify their real knowledge of the language and fill in their gaps during class conversation.“Reading and writing float on the sea of words” (J.BRITTON)
