Language confusion is a myth

I saw your concern about possible language confusion raised by your friends. I can assure you that your child will not get confused from exposure to more languages. Marcus will become more sociable, more confident, with better IQ and will be very strong in languages, benefiting him throughout his school years.

The confusion theory dates back to the 1950s from a professor in psychology in US. It has dominated the Western world for over half a century and is still being taught in all the universities in HK, and hence the medical doctors, speech therapists and teachers.

The confusion theory arose in the ignorance of multi-lingual regions in the world, such as Singapore, Malaysia, Switzerland and Scandinavia, where it is common for children to speak 5 or 6 languages. They don't get confused and are much stronger in languages than monolingual children from US.

Marcus is enjoying his programs and is benefiting from the exposure to more languages in Le Beaumont. He benefits in growing up with more friends, with native teachers, and from games and activities that exercise his brain.

Please let me know if you have any other problems.

Best regards,
Sam
