Bilingualism Matters @EastofEngland

Advice for bilingual families

The BM @Edinburgh team has put together a series of resources for parents of bilingual children. These resources provide information on a range of topics, such as:

• you have a bilingual household and want to raise your child bilingually but you're not sure how to do this
• you're worried about how bilingualism might affect your child’s school achievement
• you want to know more about how the mind of a bilingual child works 

You can also contact us by email to get further information from Dr Coralie Herve.

We’re happy to provide information sessions, training and consultancies for a range of audiences.

• we are experienced providers of training workshops on bi- and multilingualism and language learning for practitioners in health and education.

• we are always ready to engage with local, national and international policy makers in an advisory role, and contribute to reports and consultations concerned with the promotion of bilingualism and multilingualism in society.

We can provide accessible and informative talks about bilingualism and second language learning at venues in London and in the East of England (Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk etc.) for the following groups:
