The immersion method<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]–<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The immersion method is considered the most successful teaching method for the acquisition of a second language. The children are immersed in a \u201clanguage bath\u201d: the language to be learnt is used consistently alongside the first language as an everyday language (in the childcare centre).<\/p>\n

A child\u2019s brain is attuned to language acquisition and speech development and is able to grasp, process and order different sounds, rhythms and structures accordingly. Children can therefore pick up a second language in the same way as the first. What they need are \u201ctalking role models\u201d.<\/p>\n

Therefore, we have native-speakers and staff with near-native skills working in educcare childcare centres. The professionals employed as near-native speakers convey the culture of the country with and in addition to the language. Only these educators speak to the children in the second language. This fulfils the basic principle of \u201cone person – one language\u201d.
