The Importance of Mother Tongue

It is VERY important for students to continue to
     read, write, speak and understand their home
     language. If your child is able to read
                                  and write in
                                  your language,
                                  there will be
                                  better success in
                                  learning these
                                  skills in English !

                       With one big and one
                       small wheel (one good and
                       one not so good language)
                       you can go farther and
                       faster.
 With one wheel (one
 language), you can                       With two equal-sized wheels
 go from place to                         (two strong languages) you
 place.                                   can comfortably go
                                          anywhere you want!

Third-culture kids
A third culture kid is a person who has spent a significant part of his
or her developmental years outside their parents culture. The third
culture kid builds relationships
to all the cultures, while not having
full ownership in any. Although
elements from each culture are
assimilated into the third
culture kids life experience,
the sense of belonging is in
relationship to others of the
same background,
other TCKs.
