Why Learning Second Languages – is like eating Broccoli 

learn languages is good for you

Learning languages bring many benefits – even health benefits like Broccoli

I have been tweeting about languages for some time…scouring the web for trends and research behind language learning. There is an enormous amount of data out there but when you pull it all together, foreign languages emerge as very special subjects. It feeds into your life and delivers a host of unexpected benefits. Such are the benefits, we can call it a super subject – in the same way that some foods like broccoli are super foods. Check out the list of benefits below. Can any other subject do all this? I suspect that Mathematics will push it close…but this list of benefits outside the classroom is hard to beat.

Learning with KLOO makes language learning fun

Eating Broccoli isn’t much fun (for most people) when its served cold with no seasoning or sauce – and actually the same might be said for learning a language. However adding Broccoli to a Thai Beef curry, for instance, makes it much more exciting and tasty. KLOO Language games do the same for learning French and Spanish MFL languages – they spice up language learning and make it fun. With KLOO you make sentences in French and Spanish to score points. The longer your sentences and the faster you learn words the more you score – and the faster you can power your racing cars in a Race to Paris or Race to Madrid. The games are easy to play, lots of fun and players learn at least 200% faster.
