[quote=Anonymous]You know why Eileen Gu managed to be fluent in Mandarin? She lives with her grandma. Language learning is about the natural environment and forcing a few lessons here and there isn't going to help. I studied a second language- my ancestral language in my home country for over 10 years and guess what? I cannot speak a lick of it. 2-3 hours of daily lessons isn't helpful, plus if the child's heart isn't open to it because it's being imposed, you won't have any success. Now, I'm studying a new language that I've chosen and I'm happy and impressed by what I've picked up although I'm still far from native fluency. Does learning this language bring your son any joy? If not, don't bother. [/quote]
