i'm an English teacher in a primary school in China. And in our school, the kids will start to learn English from Grade 1. But i think it's hard to study English for them. Therefore, how old do the kids begin to study English properly? :lol:

From experience, birth seems to be a good time to start learning a language. I believe the older you get, the harder it gets.

i think the children should study English as early as possible, and you can tell their parents to let their child watch some foreign cartoons, it's very efficient!
