English for kids: when to start and how

English for kids

Children are natural polyglots. Their brains are built for language learning.

Before age 7, a child can master any language without an accent.

When to start

  • From birth — through songs and audio
  • From age 3 — game format
  • From age 7 — more structured

Best methods

  • Cartoons in English
  • Songs and nursery rhymes
  • Games and interactive apps
