Benefits of French Immersion schools:

French immersion programs are essential and functional for students' everyday life in Canada. Learning French is like any other task, it can be difficult at first, but eventually, it becomes subconscious. The earlier the student can be exposed to it, the easier it will be grasped. Students that are in French Immersion schools complete the same curriculum subjects as other schools but have the advantage of learning a new language.

The French Immersion program was designed to take benefit of children's capacity to learn freely and smoothly. Also, take advantage of their communicative competence and open perspectives on language and society. Therefore, learning French becomes unconscious, and there is a heavy focus on understanding before pronouncing.
