Now, English studies are as early as taught at age 4. Parents certainly hope that in this way, children will be able to learn English faster. But in reality, there are many obstacles to which a child still does not master English well after such a learning process is already at an early age.

In the process of learning English quickly, there are many factors that affect a child's success in mastering English. But with so many factors, there are two key factors that stand in the way of learning English, which is:

1. Fear

A person who is always afraid of making a mistake, will make it difficult to develop and know where it went wrong. Don't ever laugh at him when a child makes a mistake, because it will traumatize him and never speak English again. If a child is doing something wrong, it is best to correct his mistakes by keeping the spirit alive. Say that learning mistakes are perfectly natural.

2.  Lazy

In the early period of growth, children are easily affected by the things around them. Very often there are events when a child is less inclined to study because his mind has been torn to other things like watching television or even playing with his peers. It's natural, but that doesn't mean it can't be overcome. Enhance your child's curiosity about English by using things that are more like toys or storybooks. And when that appetite reappears, give the child the motivation that learning something new isa challenge that should open upa child's mind.

These two constraints can actually be worked out by both parents and teachers. In teaching English, especially for young children, parents and teachers must synergize side by side. One is by inducing a desire for children first to learn English. It is hoped that children will be encouraged and motivated to meet the difficulties of learning English as they work.

I think, English methods and models of learning by a less diverse English teacher also cause children to get bored. Where teachers use only one method and model of English learning. This leaves learners without the spirit of learning English especially in elementary school children. English is needed in primary school because it's the digital age of which all systems are in the introduction to English, we may at least have elementary school students respond to the introduction of English, so that children are not at all surprised by the current technology era, and children can have a basis to continue at the next stage, and the children have or remember a language that a child is so large, when it comes to maturity.
