I've got a daughter that he's 12 year-old, since six year-old he's studing Chineses, this is a very difficult language, because, there aren't letters it's characters and every character can say a different thing according to depend the accent. Those character can be one sentence or a word.
The Chinese it's very difficult for to learn when the people are adult, because our brain go very slowly and it's very complicated to change the language compception, because, our brain is trained at word language but not at a language concept.
I think that is very necessary for aour children to learn a new language very different, overcoat, a language to awaken the new form to learn the different languages, and to know another civilitations taht they speak and think very different by us.
The actual school don't consider the languages diversity, sure, the aren't any money for this project.
It's very stupid to think that a child is stading English all stuudent life and they don't know or spaeak very well the English language.
