In addition, it has been observed that, throughout life, they reorganise and modify as needed, especially as a result of learning, says Charles Menneron, English Language Coach in Paris.\u00a0This means that, thanks to the plasticity of the brain, the more you learn, the more we can learn. \u201cAnd thus, learning is a unique way to prevent brain deterioration and maintain good general health.\u00a0Delaying the negative effects of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/fashion\/from-us-to-you\/ageless-beauty-estee-lauder-marc-jacobs-and-nars-hired-older-women-as-models-11820.html\">ageing <\/a>is another reason why a large proportion of adults invest in learning a foreign language.\u00a0Of course, everybody talks about the benefits of being able to work or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/travel\/now-or-never\/top-10-cheap-hotels-worldwide-hostelworld-19585.html\">travel<\/a>, but it is true: many say they want to remedy their problems of memorisation by putting themselves through a strenuous language course.<\/p> <p>False perception?\u00a0Not really, of course.\u00a0There are certainly periods of great brain plasticity in life, notably up to 5 years (and puberty), where the human being has the ability to integrate an optimal language like a sponge.\u00a0After which, with some exceptions confirming the rule, it is supposedly impossible to become fully bilingual... But really, after this course of childhood, everyone is on equal footing!\u00a0Certainly, 6 -11 year olds have more power to appropriate pronunciation and vocabulary.\u00a0But adults, teens, juniors just like seniors, they have an advantage \u2013 \u201cBecause they have already acquired the mechanisms of their own language, adults master syntax and grammar faster.<\/p>  <p>They also have more extra-linguistic knowledge, multiple knowledge about the world which definitely helps to understand the new language better,\u201d says Martine Kervran, Associate Professor of English and English trainer at the IUFM in the UK.\u00a0Not bad as a bonus.\u00a0Especially since we often have another ace up our sleeve \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/coaching-lifelove\/the-5-keys-to-being-happy-in-life-11954.html#post-11954\">motivation<\/a>.\"With the vast majority of my students, tired of the traditional methods of learning a language, the first thing to do is to learn by reviving their interest,\u201d commented Charles Menneron.\u00a0Or as the psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan says, we are at the age where we <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/decoding\/13-details-women-men-adore-21873.html\">know our own desires<\/a>...<\/p>  <h5> <span><strong>Read the rest of \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/coaching-lifelove\/aieshah-11-set-dare-learn-foreign-languages-21963.html#post-21963\">our report<\/a>:<\/strong><\/span> <\/h5> <p style=\"font-weight: normal;color: #080808\"><a style=\"color: #ed1c24\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/coaching-lifelove\/aieshah-11-set-speaking-another-language-gift-21970.html#post-21970\">Speaking a foreign language: Is it a gift?<\/a><br \/> <a style=\"color: #ed1c24\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/coaching-lifelove\/aieshah-11-set-preferred-method-learning-foreign-language-21973.html#post-21973\">What is the best method to learn a foreign language?<\/a><br \/> <a style=\"color: #ed1c24\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/coaching-lifelove\/aieshah-11-set-spend-time-learning-language-21976.html#post-21976\">Should we spend time learning a foreign language?<\/a><br \/> <a style=\"color: #ed1c24\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/coaching-lifelove\/foreign-language-learning-personal-stories-21979.html#post-21979\">Learning foreign languages: Your stories<\/a><\/p> <p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p> <p><em>Ste<\/em><em>phanie Torre<\/em><\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some argue that starting out with learning a foreign language after 40 years is difficult.
