While studies confirm that there is an ideal time to learn language, when a child is very young, that doesn't mean that people of any age can't undertake and benefit from second language study. It just means that a different approach must be taken.
While immersion at a young age is the most natural way to learn, older students benefit from a more planned and progressive program in order to ensure success. Learning is built upon previously absorbed concepts, and affirmed through repetition and practice.
Context provides an important advantage to the learning process. Stories that use the new language in a natural way reinforce the new structures and vocabulary and make learning fun and interesting.
