Abstract
Teaching foreign languages to young learners is both a rewarding and
challenging task. While children have a natural ability to acquire new languages, the
teaching process involves several difficulties. This article explores the common
challenges faced by language teachers when working with young learners and provides
insights into how these issues can be addressed effectively.
