The Window of Opportunities for Learning English at a Preschool Age

Preschool children (up to 6-7) have a fantastic ability to learn a second language. Given the importance of learning English, this is a window of opportunity that should not be missed.

Viewing Video Content in English Only

Whether watching TV or watching YouTube, limit the viewing to content in English only. Children have their imagination, and they will slowly understand what is happening even without further explanations. At first, there might be some resistance. Make sure that the content is in English only. At some point, the opposition will dissolve.

Reading Books in English

Read books in English to your child. Try to choose relatively short books that deal with their favorite characters. There is a good chance that you will get their attention when you read books about superheroes, for example.

Private Teacher in English

There are many options, primarily online, for hiring a private tutor to practice conversation in English with your child. It is highly recommended to make an effort and find a private teacher for whom English is a native language. One of the websites where you can find teachers for this purpose is Fiverr.

Apps for Learning English

Children love screens. A tablet on which English learning applications are installed will keep the child busy and advance his/her knowledge of English. One of the recommended apps is Lingo Kids.
