Which language should your child choose? Our advice!

You want to introduce your child to a new language, but which one should you choose? Dutch for its proximity? English for its global importance? Chinese for its place in world trade? Here are a few tips to help you decide.

Criteria to consider 📌

✅ The usefulness of the language 🌍: Dutch and English are a must, but other languages can be valuable too.
✅ Your child’s interests 🎶: does he like manga? Japanese can be a great motivator! Are you a soccer fan? Spanish could be a good choice!
✅ Future opportunities 🎓: some languages open more doors in studies and careers.
✅ Surroundings and possible exposure 🏡: a bilingual relative or planned trips may influence your choice.

Do I need to learn more than one language?

A child can learn two languages at the same time, as long as the learning process remains progressive and fun.

Whatever language you choose – French, Dutch, English or any other – we provide our learners with fun, cultural content on our dedicated children’s platform: LINGONIA. An interactive and motivating way to explore the language while discovering the cultures that surround it!

At CLL, we advise and support parents in choosing the language best suited to their child and their daily life.
