[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC just turned four years old and speaks fluent English, knows some Spanish (DC had a Spanish speaking nanny and also takes Spanish class in preschool), studies Mandarin at an immersion school on the weekends since three, and recently started taking French lessons (as enrichment) at the preschool. DC speaks English at preschool and communicate to us in English at home but I would like DC to know Spanish, French, and Mandarin. Is it better to learn all languages at the same time, or is it better to master one langue before learning another?[/quote] Better to separate languages by speaker or topic. English is a given, so I'd teach geometry in Spanish, history in Mandarin, and foreign affairs in French :wink: [/quote]
