Between the speaking, discussions, listening lessons, homework and feedback from the teacher, everything is covered. Alina Rozas is very professional and always prepared for our lessons. She teaches in a very welcoming environment. She motivates and challenges me, while being encouraging at the same time. I appreciate her willingness to clarify anything I may struggle with and believe she truly wants her students to succeed. My Spanish has improved tremendously, since I started taking lessons from Alina.

I had been to one too many schools around North County trying to find "the one" and finally decided on this one. A Spanish immersion school with gymnastics! My daughter loves coming here! She has picked up so much Spanish and likes to teach me all the cute songs and words they are learning In school. The staff is truly amazing. They create such a fun learning environment where the kids can't wait to learn what's next. The staff is also very communicative and and responsive to any concerns you may have. They are sincerely and genuinely concerned about the well being of the children. Team work makes the dream work! Check them out if you have a little one looking for a preschool!

Since my 3 year old son was born, I have never had anyone other than my sister watch him; but at the preschool I feel so relieved that he is in such a good hands. He is learning Spanish, he does Gymnastics, arts and the most important, the social skills he is learning. If I could I will give Petits Amigos 10 starts.

Course books are very good, additional reading material is well selected to be educational, beyond just language aspect, and her class is always animated w/ discussions on various topics (in Spanish of course). The sequence of topics & reviews adapted to keep (my) grammar & vocabulary afloat. For those of you interested in discovering Mexico, the bonus part is all sorts of events organized by Rosie, including fiestas, frequent trips to Baja and more. I had no idea how lucky I was when I picked the Saber Center a few years back.

As frequent…read moretravelers into Baja California and my son also being a specialist with us as a family, from the ages of 3-10 years old, in the Mexican cuisine and culture, we knew we were taking a chance that our special learner may have challenges.. He gives this class 5 stars, especially the students he was so happy to see. And the disruptions happy kids cause in classrooms is totally not ideal for everyone trying to learn, and most importantly, the teacher trying to teach. Somewhere, over the rainbow, there is a happy medium where a guy who truly does want to learn, can do just that. Occasionally he needs help and guidance to do so. And because no other guides, an IEP, or any special needs kids are not accommodated or welcome, we are on the search to find someone who does accept special learners. This particular class recognizes none of this. I recommend looking over the paperwork introducing classes such as this one, and going over it with the instructor. We try things out, we disclose as much as we can. These are elementary school aged kids. And no one is perfect. All of this was so upsetting for me as I felt we finally found something successful. Good luck, everyone.

After raising my boys in Asia, I thought Chinese in the US system would be a breeze. But, with…read morecharacter and pinyin mastery required, we quickly found that support outside of school was necessary. A sophomore at an independent school, my son's teacher told us that no student would receive an "A" this year because mastery in speaking, reading and writing was hard to achieve. With a B at the beginning of the year, my son was no exception to the teacher's plan. ***Enter FRANK THE TUTOR.*** My son is now a solid A in Chinese, and his ability to speak and recognize characters has grown ten-fold. I love Frank's desire to support his students. His spunk and ability helped our son rise to the challenge of not only getting a good grade, but actually leaning and enjoying Mandarin! Frank is working on his PHd in languages, and has demonstrated how to connect with and motive the "Western" student. (In our school, the teachers are decidedly traditional and rigid in their teaching styles.) With Frank, our son is engaged and looks forward to his tutor sessions. Frank helps him learn everything he missed while day-dreaming in his far-less-interesting class at school, and more, in just 90 minutes a week. I couldn't give a better review for a language tutor! THANK YOU FRANK, or should I say XIE XIE!

What stands out most is the teachers. From the very beginning, they took the time to truly know our children as individuals. Every morning, the teachers greeted each child with enthusiasm and somehow made every child feel seen and important from the moment they walked through the door. The Spanish immersion program has been wonderful. We loved seeing Spanish become a natural part of our children's day and are grateful for the foundation they built. Just as importantly, they learned kindness, empathy, respect, curiosity, and how to be part of a community. The teachers modeled these values every day and created an environment where children felt included and excited to learn. Many of the teachers are moms themselves, and it showed in the way they cared for the kids. The warmth of the staff and overall atmosphere gave us tremendous peace of mind as parents. This school has a special culture that is hard to describe until you experience it. Over the years, it came to feel like an extension of our family. We are incredibly grateful for the positive influence the teachers have had on our family. More than anything, we feel that our children were taught what it means to be good people.

We want to focus her language strengthening in French and Spanish which are our native languages, before introducing English. She's very comfortable with all teachers especially Ms. Lessia!

As a mother and former San Diego preschool teacher I can't recommend this academy enough. The quality of this academy is worth every dollar.
