Who is the native-speaking teacher? Pros of learning English with a native speaker. Disadvantages of studying with a foreigner.
Great Britain is a country famous for its high-quality education, which is why thousands of young men and women from around the world strive to enter the universities of England every year.
The basis of mastering the native language — from babbling to meaningful speech — is imitation after parents and / or other relatives. From early childhood there is a kind of "tuning of the jaw" to parental articulation, over the years the jaw "stiffens", making the phonetics of another language more and more complex.
When parents send their child to children's specialized institutions with the study of a chosen foreign language, they often expect quick and noticeable results, and as a result - that one day the heir, as if by magic, will speak a foreign language as fluently as the native speakers do.

Features of the British preschool system. An important difference between Russian and British kindergarten.
Speaking several languages today is not just a "tick" for a resume, but a necessity. Fluency in a foreign language, particularly in English, is a mandatory requirement for candidates for almost any high-paying job, and not only in international companies.
For more than a decade, the English education system is considered one of the best in the whole world. Thanks to a good balance between the preservation of traditions and the introduction of the latest educational programs, schools in England and Great Britain manage not only to give students excellent academic knowledge but also to skillfully develop social and personal qualities in them.
