[quote=Anonymous][quote]Sorry, but the fact of having taught overseas does not make you an expert, since you clearly didn't teach a foreign language. And yes, "in these times of tough budgets", the best thing we can do is support the wisest choice for the future, education. No one is saying that doing fles twice a week or even an immersion will make our kids fluent, and the people who are even bringing this up clearly don't know anything about language acquisition and learning. Foreign languages in elementary are a precious tool to help our kids grow up to be mature, well-rounded individuals both overseas and especially here at home. Study after study proves this, and I for one am more than happy to pay taxes for this. [/quote] Can you link those studies? [/quote]
