Immersion


Hello dear readers,

My first post tells you something about immersion. It's a different way of teaching children more languages. Immersion means diving into another language.

Immersion is...
  when you learn without noticing it.

Immersion is...
  learning with fun.

In my opinion immersion is the best way of learning another language because it's not about learning vocabulary, it's about teaching contents by using a second language.
