My daughter attended language immersion schools for 4 years (school taught 80-100% in a foreign…read morelanguage by native speakers) when we decided to homeschool. Our biggest concern with this choice was losing the years of language we had invested in our daughter and her losing a something she absolutely loved learning. We discovered chicle when exploring Carrboro and decided to write them about a possible group class for homeschoolers. I worked with Sara Biondi, their office manager, and she was able to organize a homeschool group class. However, the first day of class we were the only family in attendance as all the other families had decided to cancel at last minute. Sara and the Chicle team worked with us and our budget to find a tutor solution for our daughter. We now have daytime classes at Chicle twice a week with two different teachers, Alma Manso and Perla S. which provide a fun and diverse learning experience. We feel our daughter has grown her Spanish skills more this year tutoring with Chicle than spending her entire days at an immersion school. We have been very impressed with her progress!! We have been attending Chicle classes for almost a year now and it has been an all around fantastic experience. From the organized office manager to the awesome teachers to the convenient location. We feel blessed to have found this little jewel in Carrboro!!! Keep up the amazing work you are doing CHICLE!!!! :)

I signed up at Chicle after wanting to freshen up my Spanish after almost 10 years wanting to try…read moreout a private lesson and it really is the best thing I've done to help dust off the language and get into practice again. I really like how they tailor a class or lesson to your needs. If you know of several people who want to do a class they can set that up or put you in one that is already set up. They also do private tutoring which is what I am doing now after my teenage daughter and I did a group class together over the Summer. It's a little more expensive but for me having the personalized attention and ongoing interaction has been very helpful and worth the extra cost. I took Spanish in grad school and didn't learn as much as I am learning now. I really love my instructor, Pilar. She is good at drawing you out and giving you feedback real time to help you speak more fluently. She is also very personable and warm and entertaining. I had Perla once and she was very nice and got both my daughter and I to practice and we enjoyed her instruction style as well. They offer children's programs (though might be in the summer), study abroad experiences and translation services as well.

We especially appreciated the support during COVID. What sets it apart is how fun and creative it is--earning "bucks" for prizes, movie outings, life skills like walking to the bus stop, and of course the Kona Ice truck . Learning is built into the fun. Highly recommend this amazing program!

The moment you walk in, it just feels different than other daycare facilities, warm, nurturing and so clean. Everyone knows our girls and are excited to see them and teach them each day. Some days my girls don't want to leave ha ha! It is more than a daycare/preschool, it's a family!

We have been at Spanish For Fun in Wake Forest for almost a month now, and it has been nothing…read moreshort of incredible. Before we even started, the director had a meeting with us to go over everything and answer any questions we had. We felt so at ease sending our child there, already knowing the attention to detail that Spanish For Fun has. The teachers in her infant room are amazing--they were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment we stepped foot in the room. They have loved on our girl just as much as we do and truly treat her like their own. We love how strong the two-way communication is, and how we are working together to do what is best for our child. Again, our experience so far at Spanish For Fun in Wake Forest has been nothing short of amazing, and we could not be happier to be part of the Spanish For Fun family!

We do after school here and it's great. My daughter especially loves the art class and I'm always…read moreimpressed at what she brings home. Summer camp is also a win. They can take "little field trips" so it's not just one room or building all day long. She eats a better lunch here than she does at her elementary school, ahah. We get pictures at the end of the camp and she's always smiling and learning. The best part is the mentorship program; it seems that older kids may volunteer (?) and she always has positive experiences learning from older kids "teaching" them with simple science experiments or helping organize a "puppet show" for example. The building isn't anything to brag about but the teachers and staff are amazing.
