 56.3% of children attend public school and 43.7% attend private school. People agreed that is easier and cheaper send them to public school, while people who send their children to private school wanted them to learn a second language at an earlier age.

29% of the people answered that their children began to learn the language at the age of 11, which is the age when children show their interested in foreign languages, 33% at the age of 6 to 10 where the parents are the ones who pressure the children to learn, and the remainder at an early age, 38%

35.6% of the people who answered said that they study English due it is one of the most important languages nowadays. 20% find German interesting because it has become more popular and 12.6% said French because it is one of the three most important languages in our country.

For us, this is an important question, because if the parents speak more than one language their children could practice more and improve their ability by talking while they grow up. But 70.2% answered that the parents of the children do not speak another language. They only have the mother tongue.

Here, we can find out two possible options. The first one might be that children want to improve their second language. But the second is that parents want their children improve their abilities. That is why most respondents answered that 69% of children practice Language outside of class.

The 52.9% consider that the level of the child when speaking the language is elementary, here there are children of private school and public school. The 33.3% said that children speak the language excellently, all of children go to private school. And finally 13.8% that is deficient, that kids go to public school.

For children who are studying and practicing two languages at the same time could be a problem. Respondents replied that 50% of the children confused the language and the other 50% did not.

The majority (94.3%) responded that learning a second language at an early age improves the fluency of speaking a language compared to those who learn in adulthood. While the rest, responded that maybe children can have better fluency.

 Most people agreed that if children are able to speak at least two languages in the future, the will have better job opportunities, they won’s have any problems applying for them and life for them will be easier.
