How do I teach English as a foreign language to a child?

Answer 1

Variety and energy are crucial. Children can learn a second language more easily in adults but their attention spans are shorter so it is important to utilize things like games and music to maintain their interest. I would never recommend long book-based sessions with a child but rather shorter, interactive sessions which make language learning fun.

Answer 2

With patience and passion! It's an exciting adventure you're on together! Approach and present every new word with enthusiasm, to stimulate the child's innate curiosity, love and need for language to understand the world. Contact me if you'd like more specific suggestions. I'd love to know more about your undertaking!
