Good morning and thank you very much for your time to stop by English Plus blog!
English Plus is a small language school located in Tamachi, Tokyo.
We're providing fun, student-centered, practical English lessons.
Today, I'd like to write about one of my children's story and how to raise children in English on this English Plus blog.
In fact, I have never written about my children on this blog before, so I don't think many people outside of English Plus students know that I have children.
Since this blog is basically English Plus' business blog so I have never mentioned them.
However, as time passes by, my children have grown up and their English skills have been improving.
So, I thought it is worth writing about them in this blog.
This is the first time I'm writing about my children's English acquisition, partly as a reminder so I don't forget about them.
Before my children were born, I had had a vague idea that when I had children, I would try to communicate with them in English as much as possible.
This is because I was wondering, “If Japanese parents communicate with their children in English while they are in Japan, how much English ability will their children acquire?” Also, “Will the following child-rearing methods actually help my child acquire English language skills? Plus, “What is the right answer to raise kids in English?"
I had my own questions, so I decided to actually work on them.
In our home, I, as a father, communicate only in English, and the mother communicates basically in Japanese, sometimes in English.
We do not force the children to speak in English, as our idea is that "English is only a communication tool", but only when they want to communicate in English.
One easy expression in our home that our children English often hear is for example, “Have a seat.” and “Where is mommy?"
Another English child-rearing method in our home is to watch videos and images (movies, YouTube, etc.) only in English (audio).
We also read books in both Japanese and English that we think they would be interested in, and sometimes read out loud to them.
In addition, when one of them started elementary school, he began taking weekly group lessons (focusing on phonics and vocabulary) at English Plus for elementary school students.
I have created an English learning environment for my children in the above general manner.
It has become a little long, so I will continue again next time.
English Plus is a small language school locating in Shibaura, Minato-ku, Tokyo.
We are providing fun, student-centered, practical English lessons.
