ABSTRACT

Canada is one of the countries with the most developed bilingual education in the world, while China starts bilingual education late. Such program greatly takes the advantage of critical period hypothesis and reveals its effectiveness. Learning from the advanced experience from Canada, this study investigated problems of bilingual education in Chinese kindergartens and offered suggestions correspondingly. Only when there are qualified and professional preschool teachers, suitable teaching materials, specific teaching objectives and methods, cooperation between parents and teachers, can the bilingual immersion education in Chinese kindergartens be fully developed. 

KEYWORDS
