    I took Tagalog 1 with Rhya in summer 2023 and Tagalog 2 with Nicky in summer 2025. Both times I…read moreopted for Hybrid courses, since I would be back in the Bay part of summer, and I definitely recommend adding that option if you learn better in-person. I was typically the only student who came in-person since most students take the class remote, but being able to be in the same room as the instructor helped my motivation during class immensely. Rhya and Nicky are both so kind and knowledgeable. You can tell that they are not only experts in the language (as native speakers from the Philippines) but in pedagogy. As a community college professor myself, I admire how organized the class was and how welcoming they are. The other students in my recent class were highly motivated and excited to learn Tagalog for various reasons. Some like me grew up with Filipino parents but never learned Tagalog, while others are in relationships with Filipinos/Filipino Americans and want to engage more deeply with the community through language. Overall, SJLC has been a positive experience, and I am excited to take the next (and last) level of Tagalog 3. The current rates for Tagalog (7 weeks, weekly meeting for small group) is $399 remote, $419 in person, and $449 hybrid -- note: this is a "Prime" class, so it is priced a bit higher since the instructor is a native speaker with 5+ years of teaching experience).

    SJLC (San Jose Learning Center) has a great number of language classes - online, hybrid, or…read morein-class - and a variety of schedules, esp. for busy adults. The instructor that I had, Keiko is great. She is very patient and always willing to help. (The courses can be fast though depending the language and the books being used). The other people there are always very polite and helpful as well. The facility, while basic, is clean and conducive to learning. They seem to use a mix of media (e.g. slides, Quizlet, etc. which is good). FYI - it is near SJC - San Jose Int'l airport and the jets taking off can be somewhat loud at times.

    My child attended Ready Preschool for 2 years, and I am very happy with her care. First and…read moreforemost, her teachers have all been rockstars! Shoutout to her very first teachers in the Green class, Ms. Priya and Ms. Anna, who were so engaging and nurturing, creating a foundation for my child to "want to go to school" and allowed her to seamlessly transition from a daycare to a more formal school setting. In the second year, Red class teachers Ms. Zhila and Ms. Ma, created a caring, interactive classroom with academic focus to prepare the kids for kindergarten. Kudos also to other class teachers and the kind and welcoming staff including Ms. Usha, Ms. Malu, Ms. Marian, and Ms. Van. The school uses an app that allows for easy communication with the teachers, and we are kept up to date on lunch menu, curriculum, and photos. The school is comprehensive in their social activities such as annual winter performance, holiday celebrations, parent teacher conferences, family events, etc. The kids also have regular music and kung fu classes. The school is bilingual English/Mandarin, with a daily Mandarin language learning component, so it is helpful to have some exposure to the language and culture so the kids can understand better, and the lunches are sometimes Chinese meals. Teachers are supportive and open to address any concerns at any time. Classrooms and playground are large, clean, and bright. My child has thrived, socially and academically, at Ready Preschool due to the support and care of a great team of loving and dedicated teachers. We can't thank them enough, and highly recommend Ready Preschool!

He started…read morewhen he turned 2 and was a bit apprehensive and now he's super comfortable and he's about to graduate from the program. He's been in 3 of the 4 classrooms and all his teachers have been wonderful. While he was in the orange room, Ms Miriam and Ms Van took great care of him. He was still in diapers and we partnered with the teachers there to get him potty trained. In the green room he had Ms Priya and Ms Anna and they had to be his favorite teachers there. Currently he's in the red room and his teachers are Ms Zhila and Ms Ma. He's learned so much in a short time, he's doing addition, teaching me about matter, and planting vegetables. His teachers are so kind, dedicated, and caring. One of the biggest perks is that the provide lunch and snacks. My son always finishes his lunch and we're told he asks for seconds. We receive the monthly lessons and weekly photos. There are also activities happening every month, in addition to music class and kung fu. They also still continue nap time even in the red room so your child gets some rest after lunch. The school provides a great balance of academic and social skills. The students are majority Chinese and there are daily Chinese lessons. Even though we do not speak mandarin at home he's picked up mandarin in class and was able to sing us songs, speak some phrases, and count to 10.

    This is the second year my daughter has attended BCS for Cantonese and our experiences have all…read morebeen positive. The teachers and staff all genuinely care about the success of the students and in helping them learn Cantonese and the Chinese culture. The teachers use fun and engaging ways to teach the material, and it's definitely made my daughter enjoy going to school on a Saturday a little more. I also really appreciate that the teachers are very open to feedback from the parents, and am always looking for ways to improve the classroom. In terms of academics, besides learning to read and write Chinese, my daughter has also had lots of opportunities to practice speaking Cantonese in the classroom as well. This was especially important for me, as we don't speak Cantonese much at home, and am always looking for opportunities to have her practice. It's becoming increasingly hard to find Cantonese schools in my area, so it's been really great having found BCS and being around like-minded parents (and teachers) who all work hard together to pass on the Cantonese language.

    After reading through all the enthusiastic, highly rated reviews, (no review less than 5 stars!) I…read moredecided to reach out for more information--and I'm so glad I did. Carla was incredibly professional and responsive from the very start. She answered all my questions and provided detailed information right away, making the entire setup process smooth and stress-free. The tutoring sessions are held via Zoom, and Carla (or sometimes one of her team members) works one-on-one with your student, accommodating your child's schedule. What really stood out to me is how much care they put into understanding what your child needs. The approach is highly personalized, with a clear goal of setting students up for long-term success. It's also very clear that Carla is passionate about what she does--and based on both my experience and the many other glowing reviews, she's also truly excellent at it. My only regret is not finding this service sooner. Bottom line, highly recommended.

    Last year in Sep/16 we enrolled our son to the Hindi classes, who could only understand Hindi but…read morecould never speak. The classes are run at San Jose center by Mr Kamal. The teaching concepts are very simple and precise, and the best part is parents involvement. At least one parent is required to attend the class along with the kid, to ensure that everyone is on same page and parent understand the strength and improvement area for their child. From the very beginning itself, my son has shown tremendous growth. In fact each and every child in the class had similar growth. By the end of first quarter, they were up to reading and writing Hindi alphabet. In second quarter, they were taught some special letters, 2-3 letter word formation. This was followed with half letters and special case of 'R' usages, along with sentence formation, numerals, family relationships, body parts, etc in the third quarter. The classes are held once a week at a very convenient time of 11-12 in the morning. Each week is exciting and my son has always been super enthusiastic to attend the next class. Three quarters down since this started, today my son can speak and talk in Hindi. He can read write Devanagiri script (though fluency is desired). Overall the change is beyond expectation, since we always believed it will take few years of persistent effort from our side to even get him to converse in Hindi. I have a lot of appreciation for Mr Kamal and his team, who came up with this idea of Hindi classes and built a solid teaching concepts around it. It does require parent's involvement and about an hour every week, but it is all fun to see the transformation. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who is looking for the same. They also have center in Hayward, if that is convenient.

We have successfully helped native Tamil, Telugu, Punjabi, Gujarati, Fiji, Hindi and English speaking students develop Hindi language skills. The society was founded by alumni from Stanford and IIT (Indian Institute of Technology). Learn Hindi reading and writing skills within one year. We maintain a good teacher- student ratio to make sure we can pay personal attention to each learner. We are a non-profit organization. The suggested donation is $125 per quarter (3 months) and it covers 10 - 12 classes conducted over the weekends including books and other learning materials. We are driven by our desire to teach kids hindi and not by money.
