Informações:

Synopsis

In this episode, I'll share valuable tips and strategies for creating a bilingual or multilingual home environment for children. In some countries, preserving and passing down one's heritage language to children can be difficult living in a monolingual area. This can limit opportunities for language practice and cultural exchange, which make it more difficult to maintain fluency and a connection to one's heritage language and culture. However, implementing certain strategies and techniques can help create a bilingual or multilingual home environment for children. I have helped many modern parents successfully create such an environment for their children and I hope these tips and strategies will be helpful for you too.
