Benefits of an Immersion School:
Most researchers agree that bilingual learners develop more skills in cognitive areas. This might explain why these students usually achieve better scores in verbal intelligence, conceptualization, global thinking, and more easily discover original approaches to problem solving.
The bilingual learner is also able to approach language learning with an advantageous distance from language mechanics. In this way, the teaching makes sense for the learner, and the child can see the immediate benefit to gaining this knowledge.
