Drawing from her experiences teaching her own children three languages, she shares the transformative benefits of fluency-focused instruction at home.Adelaide discusses how this approach not only boosts the learning of individual words but promotes a deep understanding of a language as a living, communicative tool. This method ensures you and your children can start speaking and comprehending a new language from day one, creating an immersive, engaging, and positive learning environment.We'll also delve into the importance of choosing the right language for your family, using natural language progression techniques, and much more. Listen in to discover how adopting a fluency approach can enhance the language learning experience for your homeschool family.Key Takeaways:Parents are the most successful language teachers in the world, teaching babies and toddlers to speak at a native level.Learning a new language should be fun and enjoyable, even for non-native speakers. Learning a new language becomes a joyful experience for both parents and kids, and children can witness their parents learning alongside them, creating a strong connection. Just like toddlers extract different full sentences and combine them to express their thoughts, our brains are naturally good at extraction.
