More languages = More IQ
It is well accepted that having a bilingual brain may help your career but it is surprising that it may make you smarter and delay the dementia in senescence. Latest TIME magazine claims that a bilingual brain can have the following advantages over monolingual brain: 1) 4.1 more years of clarity before dementia sets in, if any 2) larger hippocampus (part in brain to govern memory) and 3) larger areas in three locations of cerebral cortex (part in brain to process high-order reasoning). Wow, that definitely gives a boost for the already packed English camps in Taiwan.
