Wow. This company is truly awful. I called them before purchasing the groupon for 8 lessons to…read moremake sure that we were able to set up lessons. 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.

I would definitely recommend Juliet to other families in need of tutoring services.

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.

We are so grateful that we had the opportunity to send both of our daughters here for preschool. They received such a brilliant, positive start to their educational journeys here, and our whole family has made wonderful friendships and connections in the process. From the moment we descended the staircase to begin our tour of the school, we knew immediately that this was the place for our girls. The campus is a celebration of color, art, nature, creativity, kindness, and joy. The children are happy and engaged. The student/teacher ratio is exactly where it should be. The leadership team is exceptional and responsive; the teachers are kind, professional, creative and incredibly good at what they do; the classrooms are pristine and inspiring; the curriculum is top notch; the chef-prepared meals and school uniforms make life so much easier for busy families; and there are so many fun extras sprinkled in throughout the school year (i.e. theme days, performances, after school activities, parents' night out, etc). OH, and hearing your kids speak BEAUTIFUL French when no one in your family speaks any French at all, is just unreal. We are hyper-protective of our kids and we felt completely safe and secure sending our girls here. We trusted the leadership and the teachers completely with their physical and emotional wellbeing, as well as their education. Our girls are continuing their French education at the Language Academy of San Diego, where they arrived exceptionally prepared academically, socially, and emotionally. We'll always cherish the memories and relationships we made here, and you will too!

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?" So, on this day, we honor these 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. 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. 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 no longer needed the old ones. It makes sense... new jobs, new hats. For the rest of us, keep these for pics with Grandpa Jack and Gramargarita. 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.
