[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s possible but even if they started younger you need a real commitment and interest. My kid that is interested did things llle change all their computer and iPhone settings to default to the other language, started listening to podcasts in that language, found tv shows and books etc. You’re mot going to train your brain in one hour per day. The best bet is to go to a foreign country for a month or more after you already learn the basic vocab and grammar and just commit to doing everything in that language for a month. I did that as a teen and by the end of the month I was dreaming in the other language. [/quote]
