RE: FIRST HOMESCHOOLING ENGLISH LESSONS FOR MY SON: APPROACHES + MY WAY

Am very delighted to see these progress from your child. You've done well to teach me his mother tongue first. These generation is really losing the value of their mother tongue and this has destroyed the cultural values. Foreign languages are secondary languages. Teaching the mother tongue first gives you an edge. Thanks for respecting your mother tongue. In my country Nigeria, most families prefer their children to speak Queens English than their mother tongue. You're at the right path. Thanks once again.

you're right, and here in Russia there is such a tendency too. Youth is fond of using English, but without good knowledge in it, just some slang words which they add to their oral speech to seem cool. It looks stupid because Russian is a very rich language, and there are a lot of words here to express anything you want by dozens of ways. It's just fashion, but this fashion leads to losing connection with your own culture and language. It's a tragedy..
