There are numerous reasons for learning a language. Cognitive development is often one
of the most cited ones. Learning
a language is said to improve memory, attention, multitasking performance and mental health. This talk aims to
present an overview
of the latest research published in this area in order to dispel some myths and highlight the real
cognitive benefits of learning a foreign language.
