Nowadays, knowledge of a foreign language is practically a necessity. Possession is required when applying for a job, it is handed over when entering universities for many specialties. Not surprisingly, many parents strive to teach their child English as early as possible.
Instructions
Step 1
Previously, in order for the child to master a foreign language, parents hired a governess or nanny - a native speaker. Regularly communicating with an adult in English, the baby will quickly memorize the new language. Therefore, if you are planning to find a nanny, choose girls who speak English who will agree to work with your child for a fee.
Step 2
If you were not going to use the services of a nanny, but you speak English perfectly yourself, start speaking it with your child. For example, you can introduce the tradition of speaking exclusively in a foreign language at breakfast. It is strictly forbidden to ask for some tea or a piece of cake in Russian. Encourage your family not to come over to your grandfather with a newspaper for breakfast and retell the latest news. Do not translate words that the child does not understand into Russian, but explain in the same English. Watch cartoons and read books in a foreign language together. In such a bilingual environment, the child will quickly expand their vocabulary.
Step 3
You can send your child to a special group for children learning English. When choosing a language school, keep in mind that the optimal number of people in a group will be three to four. Individual lessons are also good, where the role of the rest of the students will be played by toys. Before enrolling a kid for classes, ask in what form the learning will take place: whether it will be based on the game or the kid is waiting for poring over the textbook, and then decide if this method is suitable for your child.
Step 4
Parents should be aware that active and sociable children can easily reproduce involuntarily memorized information, while an introverted child will deny that he ever heard this information. You should take into account the character traits of your baby when choosing a teaching method.
