Some people believe that all children should learn a foreign language from the time they start school, while others feel it is better to wait until a child is at secondary school. Discuss both the sides and give your own opinion.

Introduction

In today’s globalized economy, the ability to speak a second language is more useful than ever before. While some believe that children should only start to learn a foreign language at secondary school, I side with those who feel the learning process should begin the moment children enter the education system.

(To write a band 7 introduction follow this :

1. Introduction should be of 2 sentences. (To showcase your GRA)

2. Second sentence should be a complex sentence with paraphrasing of a question and a clear opinion. The bold letters here will help you to form such sentence.)

Body Passage 1

On the one hand, it could be argued that the study of foreign languages should wait. Those in favour of postponement argue that young school children already have a lot more other learning activities like how to read, write and count which should take precedence over second language learning. In short, they feel that the native language should come first. What is more, they also argue that learning a foreign language may not be helpful to each and everyone, so it is waste time teaching a skill that for many will be redundant later in life.

(To write a band 7 body passage 1 follow this you need to follow these steps: 

1. Design your paragraph in 90-100 words with 4-5 sentences.

2. Write this paragraph on other side view. “Here it is Why children should start learning foreign language from secondary school"

3. Start your first line with main idea of paragraph. Develop in next sentence. Study my first two sentences with this observation. 

4. Your next sentences should be on the same side and should develop the argument by further explanation and providing example to support it. 

5.Your body passage-1 should have “Distancing Language" to show case your grammatical range. Follow my orange colored phrases to do this. To learn it more in depth ping me here...I'm interested in learning more.

Body Passage 2

However, I believe that second language learning should begin at primary school. It is a fact that the earlier a child learns a language, the more proficiently they will eventually be able to speak it. Research has shown that before puberty, children have a unique ability to acquire language by simply being exposed to related resources, which is a skill that ends in adolescence. Moreover, in my opinion, children who learn language at early age, often overcomes the fear associates with speaking in a foreign tongue.  For instance, they do not hesitate in trying new words or asking meaning to others, which adults usually do. However, perhaps my strongest argument for starting early is that learning a foreign language provides children with range of other cognitive skills. Bilingual children are known to perform better in problem solving tasks and have more creativity than their monolingual counterparts, which are desirable skills for children of any age, so learning a foreign language at early age will eventually help young children in developing other skills too.

To write a band 7 body passage 2 you need to follow these steps: 

1. Design your paragraph in 90-100 words with 4-5 sentences.

2. Write this paragraph on your own view. “Here it is Why children should start learning foreign language from primary school".

3. The first sentence should be about the main idea of paragraph, which should further be supported by explanation and example. 

4. This paragraph should clearly mention your own position. Use the phrases like “I believe, I opine, In my point of view, my argument is " and so on to do this. 

Conclusion

In conclusion, although young children already have a lot of learning loads, learning a foreign language has many positive impacts by developing cognitive learning and improving child’s overall education. Therefore, on balance, I strongly believe that children should start learning a second language at primary school rather than waiting till secondary school. 

To write a band 7 conclusion you need to follow these steps:
