An individual who understands and fluently speaks a heritage language maintains a strong bond with the relatives, both abroad and domestically. A heritage language is equally a requirement for a person to understand the historical background of their communities. Ideally, every language contains exemplary methods of expressing and passing down ideas, concepts, cultural customs, and values spanning from various aspects of human life, such as religion and tradition. In most cases, only the native speakers of the heritage language could get these community ideals revealed to them. A basic understanding of a heritage language often speeds up the process of learning a second language, which promotes bilingualism. When a comparison is generated between a monolingual and a bilingual student, it is found out that the latter has enhanced cognitive abilities than the former,…
Ideal School School is an essential setting for students as they grow while improving their skills for life after school. To achieve that, a school environment that facilitates learning needs to be created. Critics have argued that the current schools are not competent enough to create the environment students need. For me, an ideal school would be able to achieve both academic achievements for all the students and maximum social development. The first approach I would look for is to ask for suggestions from students regarding the learning environment. By understanding what they need or feel is important, I will be able to consider it and include it in my ideal school if necessary.

The classrooms would be small to avoid overcrowding. Also, all building would have sufficient lighting and have air-conditioned. Besides the classes, a modern and well-equipped library would be built. This will encourage students…

The survey also indicated that most of the urban professionals seek the best education for their c hildren, an aspect that charms them to homeschooling.
