Brian is an exceptional teacher with a lot of passion and love for his students and all ethnicities and nationalities. He is just amazing!!!!! Very positive and I would easily say it is the best teacher I've ever had in my life (and I've finished the university in my country so I've had some people to choose from for the best teacher or professor of my life haha) Angel is a great sensitive teacher as well. Very sweet and nice. Liz from the office was helpful sometimes too. Nikki is young energetic girl! I like her a lot she helped me out and always welcome me with a big smile! She really cares for the school's image and for us to feel listened. I like that! You are welcome to talk with her about any ideas or issues You may have and she will try to help You out. She cares. The school has some pros and cons like every other educational facility. But they do work to fix them and that's something I appreciate personally. And for the Nikki and her comment below: Nikki I.. honey, find some hobby something to do. I know You may be bored. Angel is a great teacher. I was taking her classes over a year ago. She's my friend on Facebook. Wanna say hi? ‍

They assured us that we could start the following week. Then after purchase it took them a month to set up lessons. Rocky start but fine. Then finally we set up a date to start but apparently they have two locations, we were at the wrong one. So when we finally rushed over to meet our teacher she had no lesson plan and we discovered this was going to be "immersive" learning as the teacher didn't speak much English. Her boyfriend helped with the first class or I would have no idea what was going on. The next two lessons had a plan and were better but after 3 lessons the teacher could no longer do the agreed upon time so classes were ended. We agreed that we would start again after the holidays for everyones inconvenience. I have been messaging with Brian weekly since then with NO results and lots of false promises. He had me contact the parent company tesol training for a refund who said that there was no refund available because I already took 3 classes then stopped responding to my emails. This has been a true nightmare to deal with and I highly doubt I will be able to finish my classes so I am just out the money paid to groupon. VERY disappointing and POOR business practices all around. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS COMPANY.

They utilize a unique approach centered on repetition and practice based on real life situations. When my wife and I were travelling to Costa Rica, they incorporated words, phrases, and real-world scenarios into out classes that would be beneficial for us to know while travelling. The knowledge and skills we gained at Spanish Language Learning Center gave us the confidence to ask a waitress at the restaurant near the hotel to help us practice our Spanish; she made sure we sat in our section every night and we told her about Luz and her team and were able to order our food - all in Spanish. Those skills we gained were invaluable and have continued to help in all facets of our life, from communicating with coworkers in a work environment to family and friends. The warm, inclusive environment in the classroom led to relationships that will last a lifetime and made us feel like family.

I cannot express how happy we are with Au Clair de Lune--the entire preschool and its wonderful…read moreteachers. Ms. Anne-Laure, Ms. Jessica, and Ms. Claire have created a truly wonderful place for kids. Ms. Lea, together with Ms. Laure, have put in enormous effort to help our daughter build on her strengths while also supporting areas where she needed improvement. In kindergarten, she received individualized learning tasks and weekly plans tailored to her development. Over the course of a year, she learned to write in both print and cursive, mastered math concepts at a second-grade level, and even learned to read in French--despite not being a native speaker. She now understands French pretty well. What really stands out is the balance between academics and creativity. The children are regularly engaged in arts, crafts, and hands-on activities that encourage imagination and self-expression, so it never feels overly rigid or purely academic. Beyond academics, the growth in her confidence, social skills, and emotional well-being has been incredible. Before attending ACDL, she struggled with going to preschool. Here, she became excited to go every day to see her friends and truly feels like part of a community. We also really appreciate that the school has a garden and that the children spend a lot of time outdoors. The healthy lunches and snacks have been a big plus as well--our daughter, who used to be a very picky eater, has become much more open to trying new foods. The after-school programs are also great. Our daughter attended a science class and absolutely loved it. It was a fun way to introduce her to new concepts while also strengthening her French, since most activities are conducted in the language. Overall, the combination of education, care, creativity, and community has been wonderful for our daughter. We're genuinely sad that she's finishing kindergarten and won't be continuing at ACDL--we will really miss it. If you're looking for a French immersion preschool - or any preschool where your child can thrive - this is truly a special place.

HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF STUDENT DEBT…read more Welcome to Graduation season. The time of year when we dress our foremost scholars in medieval religious cloaks and then act surprised when they can't form a straight line. Who thought it was a good idea to put these adults in robes and funny hats?! You know, those square mortarboard hats. At some point back in time did somebody see some bricklayers and say, "That. That's the look we want for our brightest minds?"Hence, on graduation day, we have a lineup of devout construction workers. Next is the guest speaker, for the big inspo talk. Given by a guy who went here 30 years ago when it cost fifteen dollars. A rando cereal billionaire named Captain Crunch who'll tell you to "follow your dreams." Meanwhile you're thinking, my dream is to get any job to avoid moving back with no-longer-closeted Mom. And the tassel. You're in this sacred ceremony, and the big moment is... some fuzzy string switches sides? The Chancellor of Hogwarts will go, "By the power vested in me, you may now... transform." No one knows why we do this. Four+ years of caffeine-fueled memorizing, tens of thousands of dollars, and it's... flip that string over, you're a whole new person now. At the end you get to throw the hat. The first time this happened was at the Naval Academy. They got new officer hats, so didn't need the old ratty ones anymore. It makes sense... new jobs, new hats. For the rest of us, don't we need these for a group pic with Grandma? The whole time you've got "Pomp and Circumstance" playing on repeat. Its like the music you'd hear as a king gets crowned, not as Seymour from Slusher Hall waddles across the stage in a wrinkled gown. Anyway, that's graduation in a nutshell. Just a bunch of weird traditions that we've all agreed is how it should be done. And it's kinda beautiful. Pro tip: Congrats to the USD class of 2026. Ceremonies take place May 21-24 2026. The primary venues are: Jenny Craig Pavilion, Founders Chapel and Shiley Theatre. All graduations follow the above format.
