L'Academy Language Immersion Preschool & Infant Daycare SOMA San Francisco — Languages

We enrolled our 4-year-old at L'Academy Language Immersion in SOMA, San Francisco, and overall, it has been a positive experience. The staff, especially our son’s teacher, Maria, was very engaging. They introduced him to simple phrases in Spanish through fun songs and activities, which he has loved. One of his highlights was building a small model of a house and sharing it in both English and Spanish — a great way for him to apply what he learned. The snacks provided were healthy and well-balanced, which was also a relief. However, I did find the pickup process a bit chaotic at times, with long lines forming in the afternoons. While it could use some organization, the benefits of his language development and socialization far outweigh the inconvenience. I would definitely recommend this program for kids who are ready to learn in a nurturing environment.

My daughter attended L'Academy Language Immersion Preschool in SOMA for a few months, and overall, it was a positive experience. The staff, especially our main instructor, Maria, was incredibly engaging and made learning languages fun. Each day, my daughter would come home excited about the creative projects they worked on, like making puppets and practicing vocabulary through play. However, I did notice that pickup times could get a bit hectic, and we often faced long lines, which was frustrating after a long day. My daughter is a bit shy, so I appreciated the small group sizes, which helped her feel more comfortable participating. I would recommend this program for parents looking for a nurturing environment that helps children learn languages through play, but just be prepared for some wait times during pickup.
