Learning a second language
by: Hannah Garrison
Learn it while your young
Its easier to learn a second language when you are young then older. When your younger your brain uses the same side that the primary language is at. But when your older it shifts over to a different side. By it being on a different side when your older its much harder to learn a second language. It doesn't make that shift until your about 14-16 years old.
So lets say that your first language is on your left hemisphere and between the ages 2-13 your second language will be in your left hemisphere. When your about 17 and older your second language has moved to a different part of your brain. But when your 14-16 your brain is in the middle of moving sides.
