“Research shows that anyone exposed to a variety of languages at a young age – at home or school – becomes physiologically different to those who are not. The process of multi-language acquisition develops a part of the brain that may remain dormant in single-language students. This is the true value of a bilingual education. Students are encouraged to think differently. Their arguments do not come from a single position but from a range of different perspectives. It is this open-mindedness that can lead to better problem solving and analytical thinking later in a student’s education.”(more)
