If English isn’t your first language, you may find yourself concerned about your child’s ability to pick up the language before starting school.
Luckily, toddlers are at an ideal age for learning a second language. When your child starts school, he will pick up new words from his friends and teachers.
There is no need to give him lessons in English before he attends preschool; his young friends he meets will be the best teachers you can provide.
