[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're going to start her in Spanish in the fall. She's only going to be 10 this summer, but she wants to be an engineer and with her struggles with Dyslexia we both think her getting a head start on a second language will be important (the college she currently wants to attend requires 3 years of a language).

Wouldn't extra math (AoPS!) be more useful than an extra language? Most language requirements are for 3/4 years of language *in high school*, so having previous language experience wouldn't save time.[/quote]

You really don’t think that already knowing a language would make “learning” a language easier in high school?[/quote]
That argument can be made for any subject. Learning highschool science would make "learning" science easier highschool. Learning highschool math would make "learning" math easier highschool. Learning highschool history would make "learning" science easier highschool. What's special to you about language?[/quote]

Did the PP say that they aren't teaching their kid math, or science, or history, or science?
