Bilingualism

Bilingualism is the ability to use more than one language. Children have a natural way of learning more than one language. It is important that learning two or more languages is not perceived as “confusing the child”.

I provide assessments of your child’s sounds and language acquisition and advice on what to do when these problems arise. I can assess your child in English and in Italian.

Children have a natural way of learning more than one language. It is important that learning two or more languages is not perceived as “confusing the child”.

However, in some cases the process of second or third language acquisition may not be smooth and some children may have some specific language difficulties. This is not generally caused by the MULTILINGUAL exposure, but to other factors that may interfere with bilingual development.

I will assess their language to identifying exactly where the breakdown is occurring.

A structured language programme can be provided as well as appropriate advice for parents and professionals working with the child.
