Raising children in more than one language
Event description
Join us for an in-depth workshop on raising bilingual children!
We will discuss:
• The different definitions and forms of bilingualism and multilingualism and how they
can be acquired.
• Why parents raise their children to be proficient in more than one language, and the
cognitive and social benefits of multilingualism.
• Practical strategies for introducing multiple languages at home and tips for overcoming
possible challenges.
• The role of technology and other resources in supporting bilingual development.
There will be an opportunity to share your own language background and experiences,
as well as to brainstorm with other participants.
This session is for adults.
Places are limited and bookings are essential.
