In addition there is a Starbucks, Walgreens, In and out Burger and many other stores to grab some food. If you take bus 30 you are in 20 minutes in Downtown. I like to be in EF San Francisco, all employees are really friendly and help you wherever they can! Even though they are trying their best it's still kind of unorganized especially when the schedules change or new students arrive. Furthermore not all classes have a really good teacher! I paid so much money to come here and the sales office in Switzerland definitely promised too much. It's the same with the host families. Don't have to high expectations because the way to school Is mostly around 1h 30min, I pay 140$ per month for public transport and the host family doesn't really care about you. All in all the organization has to become better and some teachers should be stricter and start to give real exercises. Currently it's definitely overpriced. But still EF is a nice platform to meet new people and friends from all over the world. Even though my host mother doesn't care about us, it's a nice house with great EF people.

    I pride myself on knowing the different pastas without asking the server when dining at an Italian…read morerestaurant. Agnolotti, cavatelli, bucatini -- the list goes on! my love for perfectly al dente pasta knows no bounds. Well, the problem became apparent when we booked our trip to Italy a couple of months ago. I freaked out because my Italian is non-existent and so... HOW THE HECK AM I GOING TO ORDER A COCKTAIL AT THE BAR?!?! * well, you speak English of course! * I wanted to be able to confidently order in their language and sure, I can Rosetta Stone my way into learning Italian, but why not learn it from a REAL live Italian? Idesli offers Italian classes twice a week, but it didn't work with my schedule. Carla, the director, was flexible and accommodating. She worked with me to find a schedule that would fit and answered emails promptly. I got six private, 1.5 hour sessions at a fair price. My instructor, Valentina, is patient, kind and engaging. I learned so much with the personalized attention and she always encouraged me to email her if I had any questions. Learning another language is hard! It's like learning how to walk all over again. I'm planning to continue where we left off when I get back from my trip to Italy. I can say that in the short time I've had with Valentina, she taught me the most valuable lesson one can ever learn: the difference of intonation. Did you know that in Italian, penne = pasta, but pene = penis? o_0 You can't exactly order "pene" at a restaurant, right?

    I just finished a 10 lesson Spanish package with IDESLI and had a great experience…read more A little background on me: I minored in Spanish and studied abroad in Chile during college but found myself a few years out and faltering in my language abilities. I was presented with the opportunity to travel to Bogota, Colombia for work and began taking lessons with IDESLI to get back up to speed. I can confidently say that after 9 lessons I felt so much more confident in my Spanish abilities. My instructor Monica gave me great feedback and mixed the classes up with conversation, practices, and lessons. She gave me some great resources I can use later on as well. After these lessons I have used my Spanish so much more, in my professional as well as personal life, than I would have prior. I highly recommend IDESLI to anyone looking to take private Spanish lessons in the Bay Area. The private attention I received rivaled any college class I took. This is truly a great value. If I ever find myself needing to freshen up my abilities or to advance my abilities I will be going back to IDESLI.

    My family has a history here…read more My siblings and I attended the St. Mary's Chinese Day School when it was located at its original campus at 902 Stockton Street. Due to required seismic work on the building, the archdiocese sold that building and moved the school's campus for both schools here in conjunction with CCDC raising this building. The school recently celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2023 where a variety of teachers and alumni shared memories and a great time together. The school is currently headed by Deacon Simon Tsui, the principal and his wife Katherina. After a difficult period battling the obstacles from March 2020 worldwide, the school found its footing in continuing with its curriculum on a remote basis. The school is back to an in-person classroom environment and the student body size continues to grow as the word gets out about the quality of learning here. Besides learning either or both Cantonese and Mandarin, their school, funded and supported by the Archdiocese of San Francisco, encourages a Catholic background in teaching language and social skills as well and traditional cultural and art skills such as calligraphy and abacus and mental math. The classroom sizes are smaller which gives the instructors and students a greater opportunity of providing one-to-one learning. Though the Fall semester has started, registration is open for the 2025 semester (1/4/25 to 6/7/25).

I attended St. Mary's Chinese Language School many years ago when the school was serving students five days a week. I received an excellent education and am grateful that what I learned allowed me to use my language skills to work with primarily monolingual Chinese-speaking individuals in my career.

DON'T SCREW UP IF YOU DON'T LIKE ONE STAR REVIEWS. AND CERTAINLY DON'T KEEP CALLING TO GET THE REVIEW REMOVED ONCE YOU DO. GOT A CALL THIS MORNING FROM THE "IELTS Manager" who, in a fairly threatening tone told me to "take it down". Sorry, I don't respond to threats. I've written this review because I had this experience at THIS location. Please ensure that you properly vet third parties who lease your facilities in the future to avoid such negative reviews in the future. Also, please stop harassing me with emails and phone calls to take down the review. Your attempts are sadly not going to change what I experienced, and certainly aren't going to change my review. I have added a disclaimer at the top for what it's worth. ORIGINAL REVIEW I came here to give my IELTS exam and was told to report here, in a fairly threatening tone, on a Saturday morning at 7.30am for a test that doesn't start before 9am - a full 90 minutes in advance - so that my registration could be properly completed before the exam. It's 8am as I write this review and there's no sign of this place opening up. I'd give them a break due to COVID but they asked me to report here this early in the same email where they talked about their COVID protocol. It is extremely unsettling to be asked to come in for an examination this early in the morning - and we drove for a couple of hours to make it here - and find the place boarded up. I'll stop now, gotta save some of my English for the test also. So, how was my English? Do you think I'd pass the writing section?

It was purely convenience that made me check out St. Mary's for my son. Wow, I'm so grateful that I did! He's been enrolled here since he was 2, and the program really is incredible.

He's more independent and is so good at following rules and directions now! He's also learning Chinese. Everywhere we go he says, "Mama, that's Chinese!" He cleans up his toys at home now without my nagging (this place is spotless!!) and he really enjoys meeting new kids now.

I am a firm believer in the Montessori teaching technique, where kids can each progress at their own speed, and encouraged along the way. They were very patient in working with our son during his potty training phase. The environment is new, clean and warm. The kids get their crazies out during recess and gets healthy snacks and fruit. Our son constantly tells us how much he loves his school and his teachers. Many family events are organized throughout the school year, making the class feel more like family with lots of familiar faces. A great choice for your child!
