California Learning Center is an excellent resource for children of all ages. Run by an outstanding teacher. If you believe your child could use extra help OR your child could use a challenge, CLC is the best option. All teachers are certified, licensed educators in the state of California who are dedicated and hope to see your child thrive. As a long time student of CLC, I know I am the student I am today, receiving my Doctorate in Physical Therapy because of the skills and knowledge I received from California Learning Center.

They have a small parking lot, a couple of spaces for teachers and a couple for those early bird students as this lot will fill up fast! Luckily there is a lot of parking nearby and one can usually find a decent spot. I came by this shop to pick up supplies for one of the online classes they were hosting. Due to covid they are hosting all classes online, which is mostly made up of language classes. You might still have to come by to pick up your text book though so please call ahead before you stop by since their office isn't always open. It was super easy to pick up my items and the young man kept his mask on the whole time which I appreciate. They have so many items for sale in the front part of the school, it was so colorful. I loved the earrings the most! (I wear clip on earrings though- bummer for me!) Outside is a mural of Frida and since I had some falsies on I wanted to mimic her beautiful face in the mural. The class online was so cool and informative- I learn a lot about mexican culture and how to make the sugar skulls from the class. I don't know if they will do this event for the public next year but it cost me only $5 for the skull kit and I bought two so my boyfriend could also make one. We had a great time and truly appreciate this small business.

I was really, really hopeful that this program would work for my children. I initiated contact…read morethrough the email provided on the website, and received a response from the admin. assistant a few days later. I had a variety of questions that the website did not answer for me, such as.... Is my child assessed for their current Spanish comprehension prior to being enrolled in one the programs they offer? How is that done? Formal assessment? Is the current class offerings full, or is there a certain enrollment period? For private lessons, do I pick a time, does the teacher pick the time? I find these questions to be simple enough, but sadly it took over a month of ME pursuing this business with phone calls and emails to get all questions answered. I think it odd that I had to go to so much work to try and give them my money. Eventually, 6 weeks later, I was paired up with a Tutor who I thought was going to assess my daughter and determine a class placement and provide me with more information (curriculum, assessments, contracts, commitments, etc.) While she was extremely nice to me, interactive with my daughter and cheerful.... she knew close-to-nothing about The Spanish Immersion Program. According to her, I would be paying Spanish immersion a lot of money to have her come over once a week for an hour and hang out with my daughter speaking conversational Spanish. I don't expect or need a textbook for my kid. But for it being a business that provides a professional service, I was expecting a little something more. To show that I was getting my money's worth. A Pre & Post evaluation that says, "look, we have goals and guidelines and your child is reaching them. See?" Maybe something that says the tutors are background checked, formally trained, and come with prior teaching/tutoring experience. something. anything. I made one last attempt to speak to the Director, who couldn't remember off the top of her head what the rates were for classes PLUS tutoring (because I really don't think the cost and time for one hour a week would be effective). She never followed up, so I ultimately took my business elsewhere.

Are you looking for childcare with a truly caring staff and nurturing environment? Look no further…read morebecause L'Academy is the place! I haven't stopped raving about it since my daughter started a few months ago. Ms. Quynh was incredibly professional and guided me every step of the way through the enrollment process. She was always quick to respond and thorough in her communication, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The environment felt safe, clean, and welcoming from the very beginning. The cost also felt very reasonable and huge bonus is you work for the state or healthcare as there is a discount (not sure if they are still doing this but I was able to get the discount when my daughter started). One of my favorite features is the app they use to track the children's daily activities. I love being able to see photos and videos of what my daughter is doing throughout the day--it gives me peace of mind and helps me feel connected even when I'm away. The teachers are so warm and attentive. On the rare occasions when my little one is having a tough morning, they were patient, creative, and compassionate in helping her adjust. Knowing she's in such good hands has been a huge relief for me as a parent. Earliest drop off was 7:30am and latest pick-up was 5:30pm. What really sets L'Academy apart--beyond the amazing staff--is their language program. They teach Spanish and Mandarin, which has been a wonderful way for my daughter to learn about different cultures while also stimulating her intellectual growth. In the short time that she was there, 4 months, she learned how to count and say certain animals or objects in Spanish and Mandarin. I can't recommend L'Academy enough to my friends and family. It's truly a gem!

The school was amazing at incorporating the Japanese culture in all the events and in the classroom. My daughter really really really loved her teacher. Her teacher was very kind. It seemed like they had about 4 - 5 events within our 6 month attendance. This allowed us to learn so much about the Japanese culture. I would attend their events again. They ask for parent cooperation. It's not required though. Parents have a say (vote) in a lot of aspects of the school, which is nice. They are a pretty transparent school. We might return in a few years. Check out their website for events and fundraisers. I hope this review was helpful

It is her first language. She teaches AP French at a local private school and has taught college French. She even has a doctorate degree in bilingual education! Wow! She is such a gem. The class is complete immersion. The kids begin the class sitting in a circle and singing French songs and saying greetings. They do a physical activity after circle time. An example is to search the room for certain colors the teacher asks them to find, Ect. The next part includes a coloring activity. The teacher actually goes through every item they are coloring (a bear, a horse, a flower, a carrot, Ect) and questions them about it in French then has them color it with a certain color. The kids are learning while they color. She also has toy visuals of the items that she is having them color. After that, they take a 15 minute break. Later the teacher reads them a story. I sat in with my daughter one day and my daughter understood everything the teacher said. She answered the questions (in English) and even translated for me. This was the first time I realized that my daughter was really learning French. In the beginning My daughter told me it was too hard and she didn't understand. At this point it's a little too easy for her. Her teacher will be moving her to a more challenging class next month. :) Ps. we have no background in the French language. I still get hello and good bye mixed after 6 months. Yikes! Wish I had a young mind. I hope this review was useful
