About the Author

Liam A. Murphy is a British born early years educator who has spent his career exploring Asia, specifically Japan, Mainland China, and Hong Kong, where he has introduced international early years standards and practices across multiple schools and educational institutions.

Liam’s passion is in language development, specifically second, third, or even fourth languages, and the development of the young brain as it acquires communication skills across vastly different communication methods.

Liam hopes to introduce more practitioners to life in the international early years system, and hopes this book helps those who are on their own adventure into multilingualism!
