GIVE THE KIDS A HEAD START
In our global marketplace, English has become the trade language of the world. There are websites in other languages, but not understanding English really limits your ability to make the most of the web. At the same time, customers whose native language is something other than English really appreciate it when marketers can communicate in their language. Brain mapping studies in the 1960's showed that if a person learns a second language as a child, his (or her) language usage areas in the brain are set up differently than if that person remains monolingual. This different setup means that this person retains what is learned in other languages, and learns new languages much more easily than someone who waits until the teenage years or later to pick up another language.
In parts of the US, it is becoming difficult to communicate if you don't speak Spanish. Many of the big retailers--Home Depot, Lowe's--have all their signs in both English and Spanish and people who speak both languages are in demand.
German technology companies are selling and installing equipment in the US and need techs who can understand the original manuals for the equipment and train the new users in how to operate and maintain it.
At EN101, you can learn English, Spanish, Chinese, and everyone in the family can use ONE membership.
Now EN101 has a new Kids 101 section to make language learning a game for your kids. Give them a subscription for Christmas and watch them have fun while adding a skill that will pay off in the future.
