Spanish immersion also provides an authentic context for language because they are engaged by native speakers. The Montessori guides at Xochitl are from Mexico, Chile, Cuba and Puerto Rico. They use the Spanish language in real-life situations on a daily basis. The child learns correct pronunciation and fluency of the language and learns to mimic speech patterns in a natural way. It also exposes children to the cultural traditions and customs associated with the language. This enhances their appreciation for the language and the cultural traditions of a people.
SELF CONFIDENCE – Once children learn to interact using Spanish their confidence grows and they become more comfortable in expressing themselves and using the language in various settings. Bilingual children often exhibit better cognitive flexibility. The younger a child starts at a Spanish immersion school, the less likely they will notice that they are actually learning a new language. Learning Spanish will come naturally to them.
