The Characteristics of Young Learners In the book Teaching English to Children, Scott and Ytreberg classified children into two main groups. First group is five to seven year olds children, and the second group is eight to ten year olds children. All of them have different characteristics. For the first group, five to seven year olds children have some characterictics as follows: -
They can tell you about their activities.
-
They can tell you about something that they have done or heard.
-
They can plan activities.
-
They can argue something and tell you their thought.
-
They can use logical reasoning.
-
They can use their imaginations.
-
They can use wide range of intonation in their mother tongue.
-
They can understand situation quicker than understanding the language used.
-
They understand through physical word.
-
They cannot differentiate the fact and fiction.
-
They are very self-centered.
-
They like to pretend that they understand something than to ask about it.
-
They like playing.
-
They are enthusiastic and positive about learning.
For the second group, eight to ten year olds children have some characterictics as follows: -
They can differentiate the fact and fiction.
-
They like to ask questions.
-
They understand through spoken words and physical words.
-
They aren’t too self-centered (can work with others).
-
They understand abstract.
-
They understand symbols.
Eight to ten year olds children are relatively mature children. They can decide what to learn when the five to seven year olds children cannot. Children like learning something through movements and games, because they like playing and understand physical words more than spoken words.
