Benefits of Bilingualism
Multi-Tasking Skills
Bilingual and multilingual individuals learn how to switch languages rapidly. According to Penn State research, juggling between languages trains the brain to adapt to multiple things simultaneously with fewer errors.
Improved Memory
When learning a second language, the brain memorizes a new set of vocabulary, grammatical notions, and rules. These skills are exercises for the brain and help improve overall memory functions.
Improved Perceptive Skills
A research from Pompeu Fabra University in Spain demonstrates that multilingual individuals are better at observing their surroundings. This helps them have a better eye for detail. People who speak more than one language also tend to be better at spotting misleading information.

what people say about us
Our daughter spent five weeks over the summer here in Spanish immersion camp and really enjoyed it. (Previous to this she was part-time here during the school year.) The teachers were wonderful, warm and caring and she loved the outdoor playground area. She picked up so much Spanish so quickly. She is always surprising us with how much she knows and now wants to learn more.
