Of "Comfort Languages" And Learning

The Parent Action Group for Education Malaysia has called for the Education Ministry to expand the dual language programme to more schools throughout the country. So we thought we'd expand the conversation and talk about language, and specifically, how our first language influences the way we learn. Listeners weigh in with their own experiences of growing up in multilingual environments, and how this shaped the way they learned.
