孩子几岁之前是学习语言的最佳时期呢？

英语外教老师讲述：孩子6岁之前是学习语言的天才。研究证明：孩子在学习第二语言上有着成年人无法超越的优势。那些在成年以后才开始学第二语言的人，他们在讲第二语言时往往会带着母语的口音。

English foreign teacher tells: children before 6 years old is the genius of language learning. Research has shown that children have an advantage over adults in learning a second language. Those who begin to learn second language when they are adults, they tend to speak native accent when they speak second language.

美国科学家曾经做过一个测试，就是对在移民到美国十年以后的一些亚洲移民进行了语法测试。测试结果表明，那些在7、8岁以前移民到美国的，对语法的掌握程度和美国本地出生的孩子一样好，而成年以后才移民到美国的，虽然在美国的时间跟孩子一样长，但是他们对语法的理解远远不如孩子。开始学习第二语言的年龄越大，他们对这项语言的掌握程度越低。

American scientists used to do a test of grammar testing of some Asian immigrants after ten years of immigration to the United states. The test results show that those in the previous 7, 8 year old immigrants to the United States, grasp of grammar as well and Native American born children, adult and later emigrated to the United States, although the time in the United States with the child as long, but their understanding of grammar is far not as a child. The older they begin to learn the second language, the less they know the language.

所以6岁之前是孩子进行英语启蒙的最佳时间，并且听英语故事，磨耳训练，在孩子越小的时候进行越好，比如在汉普森英语幼儿外教一对一课堂上，外教让2岁的孩子听故事不要求掌握故事情节，只模仿发音，更多的在于培养孩子对英语的兴趣，这是一个重要的熏陶工作。家长如果能够长期坚持陪伴孩子一起听英语故事亲子阅读，培养孩子对英语和阅读的兴趣，那就更好了。

So before the age of 6 is the best time for children English Enlightenment, and listen to English stories, grinding ear training was better when the child is small, such as in the Hampson foreign English teacher in the classroom, the teacher let the child of 2 years old to listen to the story without the need to master the story, only imitate the pronunciation, more is to cultivate children's interest in English, this is one of the important influence of work. If parents can persist in accompanying their children to listen to English stories, read parent-child literature, and cultivate children's interest in English and reading, it will be better.
