[quote=Anonymous]Thanks, everyone! It's interesting that language immersion helps with English acquisition. I think it seems like a great idea, but I agree with PPs that the acquisition of the second language itself (aside from the benefits for English language acquisition, critical thinking skills, and exposure to a new culture) likely will suffer if the child only converses in that language at school. Neither my husband nor I speak a word of Chinese. We'll have to think about it. Of course, YY is a massively popular school, so this only becomes an issue if we're lucky enough to get a spot.
