What’s the best age for learning a foreign language as Italian?

Best Age to learn a foreign language as italian

Most people say and a lot of scientific studies have demonstrated that children and kids are able to learn more easily and in less time. As for learning new languages, one of the most requested questions is about the best age for learning a foreign language.

The best age for learning a foreign language according to MIT

The MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has conducted a scientific study to discover the best age for learning a new language. Researchers of MIT assessed 670.000 people: they were of different nationalities and ages and this allowed to collect a lot of statistically significant data.

The result of this study is that the best age for learning a foreign language is before 10 years. The age of ten is considered the limit to learn a new language more easily: according to this study there aren’t lots of differences between those who start studying a foreign language before ten and those who start at ten years, but students older than ten years encounter more difficulties.

Actually up to eighteen learning a new language is not so difficult, indeed from ten to eighteen students can learn a new language faster than adults and can learn and master grammar rules easier than people over eighteen years. This means that students are adept learners until the age of 18, because they will still learn quickly. It’s after that age that things become more complex!
