[quote=Anonymous]I'm the bilingual PP who posted above and said immersion schools are not magical. I just wanted to say that we do send our three kids to an immersion school here in DC and there are definitely some kids without Spanish backgrounds that can and do speak Spanish well. Immersion schools are not magic, but some kids just pick it up easily. Of my three kids, one speaks stellar Spanish. One speaks it so-so and only under duress. The youngest is a mixed bag. We put in a ton of effort on top of the school, so I suspect that it will work out in the end. I'm not saying that you won't get magical results one of these schools or in college if your kid decides to learn another language. what I'm trying to say is that it is unlikely unless you put in the legwork. Agree with Pp that the language on the TV must always reflect the language you're trying to teach. [/quote]
