Benefits of Bilingualism
Learning to speak another language opens the door to another culture. It also opens the door to wider understanding, to appreciating differences and to looking for alternative solutions to problems.
Scientists researching bilingual children have noted an increased level of creativity, improved ability to interpret the world, more advanced language skills in their mother tongue, and better school performance among bilingual children than among mono-lingual children. They argue that bilingual education develops the brain differently from mono-lingual education.
