Nowadays, there is a phenomenon in China. A lot of parents let their children learn English at very early age. On the weekend, they take their children to some school to learn English. some of the children are only three or four years old. so I do not know when is good for students to begin learning English as a foreign language?
The earlier,the better?

When to start learning a second language
Quite simply, studies have consistently shown, the earlier the better. I started my children's bilingual upbringing at birth.
