only 30% of the world understands english europe is a shrinking market. the engine of growth is shifting to the east china is going to be the largest consumer and indo china regions are going to be in the pherpheri so should we teach chinese to our kids? who are we kidding germans do engg in german french designs are in french italians are confortable with their language even in medicine, same with chinese korean russians they all learn even sciences in their mother tounges. the point i want to make is english can be learnt later first you need to understand the subject and enjoy learning it and the best medium for it is mother tounge did narayan murthy go to english medium school did prof ur rao or kalam attend english medium schools.
science needs to understood not mugged in a language the kid does not understand after his basics are in place teach him english french or even chinese who cares
