If you've ever heard that children can pick up a new language faster
and easier than adults, forget it. This is a common misconception. In
fact, scientific research has proven that the most difficult learning
task for children and adults alike may be the attempt to acquire second
language proficiency in school environments.
In fact, even more distressing is that research has shown that less
than 5% of students studying a foreign language are able to endure the
stressful nature of formal school training to continue studying the
language more than two years (Asher, 1982).
It is simply not true that young children learn a new language more
easily and quickly than adults, however, children are exposed to a more
brain-compatible learning environment for learning a language than
adults are in schools. This is the reason why they learn languages
faster.
Research has shown that it typically takes approximately 3 months of
study at the foreign service institute for an adult to become
proficient in a foreign language. Knowing that this is possible sparked
me on my mission to create an interactive Spanish learning package that
could allow regular people, like you, to speak Spanish confidently and
naturally in less than 3 months!
