At Lango your child will...

• Make Developmental Strides

 At Lango, you can expect your child to grow developmentally and cognitively by improving problem solving and critical thinking skills and enhancing creativity. Studying a foreign language over an extended period of time has been shown to accelerate cognitive development, resulting in higher grades in math, English, and even SAT scores!  

• Gain an Appreciation for Other Cultures

   

   

Our teachers bring their passion for other lands and peoples to their classes. Lango students learn about the richness of other cultures and increase their interest in speaking their new language. Depending on which language classes they take, our students may learn about folk music from Argentina, Spanish games, French cuisine or Chinese dances.

Definitely! In fact, studies have consistently shown that the best time to begin learning a second language is when a child is learning his/her first. From birth through about age 8, a "learning window" is open that allows kids to learn a language naturally and easily. The younger the learner, the more likely he/she is to acquire the language with an authentic accent and to retain vocabulary and grammatical patterns over time. Children who learn a language at an early age are more likely to:

·        Develop native pronunciation

·        Express themselves creatively in both their first and second language

·        Perform strongly in school and on standardized tests

·        Understand other cultures and abstract ways of thinking

·        Become bilingual or multilingual, offering future global career opportunities
