If you’ve ever wondered whether enrolling your child in a dual language immersion (DLI) program is the right move, you’re not alone. As an education consultant, I hear this question all the time—and in this episode, we’re breaking it down together. We’ll dive into what DLI programs actually are, why they’re growing in popularity across the U.S., and what makes them so appealing to families hoping to raise bilingual kids.

You’ll learn:

The difference between 50/50 and 90/10 language models

The real benefits of bilingualism, from better memory to higher adaptability

Common concerns, like whether your child will fall behind in English

The type of child (and family) that tends to thrive in these programs

And key questions to ask before committing to a DLI school

Whether you’re excited about the idea of raising a bilingual child or feeling overwhelmed by what it would mean for your family, this episode is your starting point. As always, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer—but by the end, you’ll feel more confident knowing what to consider and what to ask.

Listen in, take what resonates, and remember—you know your child best.
