  • IELTS ESSAY on learning a language

    Posted by isha on May 12, 2023 at 8:04 AM

    Some believe that students should begin learning a language very early in school while others think these subjects should be taught later.

    Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.

    Most people feel that the process of learning a language should be started at the initial stages of schooling, wherein others believe that it can be done later. In my opinion, children should be encouraged to learn a language early in school. This essay examines the pros and cons of both the sides.

    It is said that children are fast learners than adults as their curiosity to know new things fuels the learning process. Since children are moved on to different countries for higher education, learning a language at a young age can be seen as a survival skill for future life. The ability to grasp a language easily lies in the fact that brain forming occurs at an early age. Hence knowing a language other than the mother tongue is an asset and it is better to be taught in the early days of school.

    Some believe that the language-learning process should be initiated in the later days of education. The main reason behind this is that students at a younger age might not be able to pull it off along with their mandatory syllabus. And this can become a burden to the students thereby causing harm rather than good. Also focusing on learning other languages may affect in knowing the mother tongue deeply.

    To conclude, although learning a language at an early age can cause some difficulties, it has an extremely positive impact on a student’s personal and professional life. I strongly believe that this positive side of learning a language at younger age outweighs the other.

In my opinion, children should be encouraged to learn a language early in school. This essay examines the pros and cons of both sides.

      It is said that children are faster learners than adults, as their curiosity to know new things fuels the learning process. Since children are moved on to different countries for higher education, learning a language at a young age can be seen as a survival skill for future life.

The main reason behind this is that students at a younger age might not be able to pull it off along with their mandatory syllabus. And this can become a burden to the students, thereby causing more harm than good. Also, focusing on learning other languages may affect knowing the mother tongue deeply.

      To conclude, although learning a language at an early age can cause some difficulties, it has an extremely positive impact on a student’s personal and professional lives. I strongly believe that this positive side of learning a language at a younger age outweighs the negative.

    Many people believe that the process of learning any other language should start from a very beginning stages of the school. In contrary few people also believe that the learning process can be done later.In my opinion children should be encouraged to learn language at a very inital stage in school.This essay shows the pros and cons of both sides.

    It is a known fact that children are quick learners and they tend to grasp much quicker than adults. Learning a second language other than mother tongue is always beneficiary as children are now a days going to different places for further education.Children are more curious to learn different things when compared to adults.But few schools have introduced second language to encourage children in developing their skills.

    Many believe that learning different language process should begin at the later stages of life. The main reason behind this is that students at a younger age might not be able to pull it off along with their mandatory syllabus. And this can become a burden to the students thereby causing harm rather than good.

    To conclude, although learning a language at an early age can cause some difficulties, it has an extremely impactful on student’s personal and professional growth. I believe strongly that learning language will outweigh the positive side on younger age.

    Few assume that children should be educated a language before head in school while, some say learning these in higher classes is better. This essay discusses, for and against on the above statement.

    Toddlers tend to grasp things easily, they mimic everything they see as they memorize way faster than adults i.e., as people age, the time taken to learn or understand gradually increases, teaching new languages to kids at tender age is beneficial rather in older age. Also, teaching them new languages early will save them time in the future to learn extra subjects. Educating them new skill will increase curiosity in them to learn more.

    Up skilling them early may create a stressful environment leading to mental disabilities and also, they may develop ignorance and lack of interest in learning new things which indirectly effects their academic performance. Leaving the young minds stress free, allowing them to grow in play full and cheer full conditions will help them bloom in the future.

    In my view, teaching children at lower classes is help full in building a strong and confident career. Moreover, new subjects should only be taught until he/she opens their minds freely without feeling stress. One should not force them to learn, instead creating a joy full surroundings will level up their mental capacity making it less hard to seize knowledge, which also results in long term memory. Finally, I conclude that pressurized education beats stress free education either it may be youngers or elders. Tuning younger minds is way easy than the adult minds so, teaching new subjects prior is better than later.

    Most people believe that students should be learning a language at a fairly young age in school, yet there are others that think it is better if taught later. In my opinion, learning a language in your childhood is extremely beneficial to your personal development. In this essay I will talk about the pros and cons of both sides.

    It is known that, children are fast learners, and due to this it is advantageous for them to get the hang of a different language. Moreover, the information absorbed by kids is retained in their memory for a long time, and if they are kept in touch with the language, they can vocalize with it in their adult life.

    However, children also pick up their mother tongue easily, as it is spoken by their family members, and this may pose a problem in learning another language. Kids may learn quickly, but there is only so much they can comprehend in their developing brains. For some, it is too big of a task to learn multiple languages, at a young stage and is better if taught later.

    To conclude, not all students have to the ability to grasp more than one language at a young age, albeit for some, it is possible to do so. Learning multiple languages is so important for communication and the fruits of learning a language at early stages, is seen much later in a student’s life.

    It is known that, children are fast learners, and due to this, it is advantageous for them to get the hang of a different language, which they can use when they travel to different foreign countries. Moreover, the information absorbed by kids is retained in their memory for a long time, and if they are kept in touch with the language, they can vocalize with it in their adult life.

    However, children also pick up their mother tongue easily, as it is spoken by their family members, and this may pose a problem in learning another language.
