Basically, you can say it's never too early. Just as a baby already listens and familiarizes itself with the sounds of language, even though it cannot yet speak, it is also the same with the second language. Sooner or later, the baby will begin to imitate the sounds and then form the first words. In the native language, but also in English! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n ” dsm_child_open_font_icon=”K||divi||400″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” parentOrderClass=”dsm_faq_0″][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”My son \/ daughter goes to a bilingual kindergarten anyway, isn't that enough?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n A bilingual kindergarten is certainly a good support. The difference is that there is only one native speaker used for many children.

Our coach only speaks the target language with the child, never the child's native language. This way we avoid that the communication takes place in 2 languages.
