TESTIMONIALS

We really appreciate all the incredible work you have all done with Logan and Grayson over the past years !

Thank you for all the years of wonderful support and education.

Bonjour Madame Essia,

Today I will be backpacking while French class is going so I won't be able to make it to class today. (Fritz won't either). Thank you so much for being an excellent teacher  throughout COVID and I will miss having French classes every day during the summer.

Merci beaucoup! Thanks for the nice note, I am so glad to learn that Tibby is doing well in the French class as I think language is truly important to help expand our life, giving us more opportunity to connect with more people and gain more perspective, to make us more open minded and connected.

Thank you for giving your heart to teach those students!

Please thank Ms. Gracie for all of the amazing work, lessons, and support she has provided me so far. She has impacted my learning experience in such a positive way and I am extremely grateful.

I wish you both all the best, and thank you again for everything!

I liked the Tuesday class and I felt it was a slightly better pace for me. I am trying to find my rhythm with an at home practice still and so a slower pace is best for me right now. I can not thank you ladies enough for listening to my concerns and being so supportive. I felt understood and cared for and I really appreciate that form you both and look forward to continuing my lessons.

Thank you for a great semester of tutoring - you were a lifesaver! The girls are now much more comfortable speaking freely in French and for the confidence they have gained, I have you to thank.

Thank you for your extraordinary leadership and support of the students during this challenging time. I really applaud you and your teachers' dedication in keeping the classes going so consistently during this prolonged shelter in place period.

Hello. Just a quick note to say that Selig is enjoying the classes so far. They are engaging and move quickly. It makes us hopeful of success. Thank you very much l! Catherine G

Loving French.  Yes, to fall.  Remote class works great. My son got up this morning (on a Saturday) to attend French. He wanted to read and answer more questions in French.  So sweet.  Love the Monday through Friday daily schedule.  Keeps us all on track and regular.

Thank you for a great opportunity.

I want you to know that both of my children love their French classes.

I hope that you are able to offer this format over the summer.  I would very much like it.  Same for the fall next year as I believe the schools are going to be on split schedules.  Even if you need to change the time of day....the daily 30-min with homework works great from our perspective.

Thank you for all of your efforts developing the new protocols that are required for the upcoming school year. I know it has been a tremendously difficult undertaking for you and the teachers.

Nicole and I would still like to have the Kids attend the Bay Language Academy next year. We are nervous about the in person classes, as additional classes and students means additional risk of contracting COVID. I imagine that many parents are in a similar mindset. However, we felt that the distance learning was very effective for the kids, particularly after you switched to the 5-day per week, 30-minute per session format.

We are most interested in the remote learning options that will be available to the kids next year.

I want to thank you and let you know that Alaia is loving Bay Language Academy Camp.   She had really missed interaction with kids and teachers. She is just loving it. She absolutely loves art, and comes home so excited. I hope she has been well behaved and a good listener.

You have a wonderful language program and aftercare set up. We are really excited for our daughter to participate in your programs.

J'ai été accepté, Mme Essia ! J'ai rejoint la Sorbonne dans le cours de lettres, j’ai été accepté en deux, mais je vais choisir Lettres Classiques ! Rien de tout n'aurait été possible sans votre aide pour le DELF!  Merci beaucoup beaucoup !!

I will highly recommend your Language Academy to anyone!

We appreciate the foundation you laid for her language skills. Sincerely

Thanks as always for your help and the great learning experience!

Warmly,

Sorry for the delay. The courses are great!

We have looked at several after school programs and really feel he would do best with you. You've created an amazing space to learn and grow.

Thank you so much for patiently working with this my son. I wish you and the Bay Language Academy all the best and hope that your programs continue to thrive.

Thank you for accepting my kids into your wonderful program, and showing them a lot of personal love and care.  When we come back from Taiwan in 2 years, I want to enroll them back in your program so that they can keep up their Mandarin! Thank you!

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to every staff at Bay Language Academy for the love and support you all have given my boys.Thank you.

Thank you for your kindness, making the adjustment, and reaching out. I think what you all do there is amazing.

So grateful i still have you !! And so happy to see you again tomorrow she was sad to leave today ...

Thank you for all

We've had a wonderful experience so far, and look forward to being back the rest of the week, and then during the year for TK. Thank you!

It was truly a pleasure to meet you and spend time talking with you. Reya and I continued to discuss your kindness and welcoming energy: we really look forward to being part of the community you have created at Bay Language Academy.

Je suis très très très heureux, madame Essia !!! Je n’ai pas de mots pour exprimer mon bonheur ! Il semble que tout est en train de devenir réalité ! Je sais que réussir le Delf B2 n’était que la première étape et j’ai encore beaucoup à faire, mas je suis très content hahaha Merci pour tout, je n’aurais pas pu réussir sans vous ! Merci beaucoup !

We are extremely pleased with our boys and their participation in the program.

He got a B on his most recent test so I could not be more grateful for your assistance and expertise. Best.

I want to thank you for the wonderful service you and Instructor Kim have provided to my children during their attendance to your Mandarin program . Thank you again, I wish you and your program much success.

Je me suis préparé pour l'AP dans ma classe de français, et j'ai de bonnes notes pour mes exercices d'AP (vous m'avez aidé pendant l'été!)

Grace is a fantastic instructor, and I enjoyed our group so much. Best

On est extrêmement content des progrès de Ryan

Tonight, when we went around the table highlighting what we are grateful for, Marguerite and Fritz are grateful for you for teaching them French.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. This helps considerably.  The fact they have actually completed assignments on time +/- a couple is hilarious. I guess they are growing up and don't need me as much. Now I am on the same page as you and them we are in good shape. Thank you so much. Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Ava greatly enjoyed her classes - she’s been teaching her little sister how to count to 30 & recite the days of week in Spanish! Thank you

This evening’s class was fun!

 I look forward to taking Spanish. Thank you.  Sincerely, Ann

Eti really loves Bay Language Academy and I appreciate all of the efforts you made to accommodate our family.

I am very happy with the progress the kids are making. Thank you.

Merci beaucoup pour votre aide. Je l’apprécie énormément! J’ai de la chance pour vous avoir. Merci encore pour tout :) Mes amitiés,

Alix just received her French SAT test score and the result was ........................................................... 800!  🤩

Thank you so much

It was a pleasure meeting you! I feel your language school will be the best place for Rosie. Thank you.

I just know that she really loves having an art class mixed in.

Thank you for welcoming our kids into the Bay Language community.  They seem to enjoy it.  Nora is very pleased.

Marg is speaking french - small but working towards it, and pushing her brother to do the same.  Its now clicking! So thrilled.

We are so excited to have Alissa back at Bay Language Academy!

She said she felt very good about the exam and that your practice tests were harder and prepared her well. I will let you know when we receive the score. Thank you for being so loving and kind to them. They have so much stress and your approach is effective yet does not add to their stress.  You were able to keep it light and they appreciate the lessons. With gratitude.

We are very excited to begin again with your program.  Thank you!!

I have enjoyed the past 5 months of Spanish with Suzy but am headed out on a 2 month road trip.

I will let you know when I want to re-register later. Thanks

Merci beaucoup pour tout! I appreciate everything you have done for me and my family.

Just want to tell you that I had 98% on my French final and 97% overall for the semester. Cannot wait to have the results for the AP and DELF exams. Thank you so much for helping me skip French 3 and still get those results !

Thank you so much for all you've done to help Emma and us.  We will miss you and all the great people at Bay Language Academy!

Thanks to your guidance. She did well in her final and was graded with 89 which equates to A for the final. So much thanks for all your help.

I shared with both children your feedback. Both were very proud of their work and acknowledged that with a firm foundation it was time to start using their skills outside of class. Finally, thank you so much for all that you do on behalf of our children.

As always, thanks for all you and your team do! Avery loves Bay Language Academy. :)  Warmly

Thank you and it was really lovely to be back in French class again. I have missed you, the fellow students, and the learning. Grosses bises,

They came home raving about the class too, and sharing what they had learnt. Thank you for the special welcome!

I really enjoyed the class and I think Susy is a wonderful instructor. (She gets an A+!) Thank you for your time and for putting together such a great program. Best regards.

Thank you for everything. I think I had her a  bit overbooked with activities and now that we dropped kung fu she has more relaxation time and might be able to continue with french. I know she really enjoys your classes and the atmosphere at the school.

Happy spring!

The girls absolutely love going to Spanish school!

Let me know your thoughts and thank you so much.

Both children have made great strides on their language skills this year- thank you for providing such high quality teachers.

Have a great rest of the day, and I sincerely appreciate everything you do for all  the children making the world a better place

The french intensive class that he took last summer helped him a lot in the fall. Thank you!

I wish you and your students continued pleasure and success. Merci beaucoup pour votre bonté - vous êtes très généreuse et un bon professeur.

We are very pleased with the quality of your program. Best. Thank you.

Thank you for all that you and the teachers continue to do for our children. They are happy and learning. And they are finally starting to speak Spanish outside of class. Small steps...

Have a wonderful holiday. Peace and blessings.

Thank you so much for your hard work with our daughter. We will do our best to encourage her to behave respectfully.

Thanks so much! Her grades are looking good!

As always, I continue to appreciate your flexibility, time and the quality of your teachers. I just love working with Grace so much -- my favorite part of the week. Thank you

Thank you, Matthew told me he really enjoyed his Spanish class!

We appreciate your generosity and support. Thanks

I appreciate you and your school. You run an amazing program and the boys are lucky to attend.

Sam is truly enjoying his classes and is learning a lot already!  Thank you

The knowledge she is working on with her tutor on Tuesdays will give her me more confidence when the regular teacher returns, she will be keeping up and  less intimidated at her school.

Thank you so much for having us over to visit your beautiful school on Friday. It was real nice meeting you and getting familiar with your and your school's philosophy. My husband and I are so thrilled to have him attend the Mandarin class at Bay Language Academy.

We are sad to leave Bay Language Academy and the Bay Area. We will miss you all. Thank you!

Mateo really enjoys learning Spanish classes. We appreciate all your kindness and support and we are grateful for what he was able to learn at Bay Language Academy. Kindly,

I made a note of the procedure regarding pick up. I appreciate the email. The boys absolutely love the school. - Alina

We love the Bay Language Academy program, staff and the experience has been wonderful. We cannot thank you enough for your kindness and support you have given over the past two years.

I feel I have made a lot of progress over the last several years. Thank you so much as my trip to Peru was incredibly rewarding and I was thrilled with my ability to communicate effectively with everyone I met.  -Mike

So glad to see you have so many "families" enrolled in French.  Great to see and a huge testament to your great program.

We have just returned from our travels and have been hearing from Alexandria how much she is enjoying her French camp.

I wanted to let you know that she LOVED your class and said you were a fabulous and fun teacher and that she learned so much!

Thanks the syllabus is very helpful

Thank you for all you have done so far for my boy. We greatly appreciate you and your staff. He is speaking Spanish with so much more confidence now and we owe this all to your program. We hope to keep a strong relationship with your facility with hopes my younger son will be attending the Academy as well.

Thanks so much for this booklet.  Our class is fun and Grace is a very good teacher.

Thank you so much for such an enriching program.  Ava has enjoyed her French class at Bay Language Academy. Thank you again, Beth and family

We can't thank you enough for your understanding and flexibility. Ryan loves French classes and looks forward to it,  as he moves to 1st grade he will be able to attend your Summer Camps in 2018 and that will be a wonderful additional exposure to your outstanding Multicultural program.

Thank you! For everything!! She's grown a lot under your care

Paige very much enjoys French. Thank you for all your support in her first exposure to French!

Thank you for everything. You have been great, and your program has really been a positive experience in Siri's life. Talk with you soon

I have really appreciated these past three years ! I know she has been well cared for and loved, and that is all I could hope for.

We will definitely try to continue learning French.  Thanks again, we enjoyed your class very much!

Thank you so much for all you have done for our family and for treating Alissa as part of your family.

Best regards

Thanks so much! You have such a great program! Naomi loves it.

Thank you so much!  They had a great time yesterday.  The hats are adorable too. I so appreciate you! Best.

Just want to say thank you for the service you provide. Nia talked about her new teacher during the entire drive home. She said that she really likes her teaching style.  Thank you.

My children are really enjoying their Spanish classes. Aniya is embracing it with amazing amount of gusto. Elijah is progressing but struggling a bit  at the moment. Thank you for all your efforts.

I am a parent to two small children.  I took french for many years and want my children to have a strong and academic French language experience.  I searched all over the bay area, even going to the French Alliances and French Government supported language programs to find one that fit my needs. (Many started as after-school programs in 1st grade, however, science shows that as kids age, especially after 8 years old, their ability to learn other languages diminishes - its a brain synapse function.) I found Essia after much researching and offered a class that suited my daughter, and the eventually my son, as he became old enough. Essia is one of the most amazing people I know.  She is compassionate and firm, sympathetic and smart.  Has an incredible world view, and love of language and culture (and science). If you are lucky enough to be enrolled in her caring, and thoughtful program, consider yourself has a wonderful gift. Both my children love her classes and think they are "too short" :)

We are excited to have Owen in your program because we both feel that this is the most enriching program for Owen and his personal development.

I really enjoyed taking your French class and was surprised at how much I was able to speak while on my trip. Thanks so much for your help!

Thanks a lot for sharing information and helping Vanessa. I'm so glad to hear about this. Learning a language is hard and I also hope Vanessa will be better in future. Please let me know if you guys need me to do something and help me to say thank you to Ms Karen too.

Again, thank you and have a nice weekend Essia!

Sincerely,

We very much appreciate you and your school! All the best

A few years ago, my children took your wonderful summer camp!

This year. I would like to take lessons myself. Thank you

Thank you again for giving my daughters a wonderful camp experience this summer.

BTW the girls love your place!  Have a great weekend :) Best

Thanks for all your warmth and support last year as we transitioned to Alameda. It meant a lot.

Thanks again for taking Uma today. She loves Bay Language Academy and was proud of her artistic mirror!

I have to work late and won't be able to make my last class. Estoy muy triste!

I hope there will be more adult Spanish classes offered. I had a great time with the instructor and the classmates!

You have a wonderful school!

Best Wishes!

It has been such a wonderful year for Isabel at Bay Language. She truly enjoys her Spanish class and always leaves with so much joy and excitement. I am also very grateful for all the support you have rendered my family throughout the months.

We very much have enjoyed the Korean class and really like the teacher !

You simply have an awesome program!

The care and classes that Lucille has been receiving at BLA are much appreciated - her Spanish vocabulary is impressive!

Vous êtes comme notre famille - Sophia a commencer avec Bay Language Academy il y a deux ans et a fait beaucoup de progrès. Merci.

I was struck by how passionate you are about bilingual education and meeting the needs of the families. With opportunities like your language school, I feel as though parents who are raising bilingual children have a great resource that my parents didn't have when they were raising us. It is very important for me that my children be able to communicate in my native language and learn to appreciate my culture as well.

We love that her skills are improving and she is more confident using the language. We also want to thank you and the staff for your hard work and dedication to her success.

I must say that I did learn a lot during over the summer during our private sessions. I'm trying to retain it as much as possible. The class is fun and I like all the students, I just didn't say much because trying to process and learn. My regards to all.

Both girls recite a little of what they learn in class so we were aware that they has been learning Spanish as well.  I saw that she was learning to write her numbers in Chinese the other day, and I was very impressed with what she had learned.

Yes, he loved it.  He wants to take the Japanese class. We are officially committed. Thank you.

I am excited to help reinforce what she will be learning with you. I am confident she will excel under your curriculum and ecstatic to officially be part of the Bay Language Academy Family! We're so excited for her! We know she will blossom within your system! And thank you for all you've done already. Have an excellent day.

hank you for sharing this picture. Alissa said she had a fantastic day at camp :-)

Thank you so  much for all of your effort. I really loved your program. I think it would be great for the boys, especially Matthew. And I truly appreciate the time you took to accommodate our schedule.

We were playing bingo in Spanish with Zoe this weekend and her vocabulary was amazing.  Kim and I are amazed at how much she is learning.

We have decided to continue with the French for Audra.  I am very impressed with what she has learned so far and definitely want to keep that going!

Vous êtes comme ma famille.  Je vous remercie pour tout.  Vous êtes toujours dans mon coeur. :) Christelle

Je pense que les enfants sont très contents. ils ont appris pas mal de mot. C'est bien pour un début. Après comme toute langue, il faudra passer par la grammaire, beaucoup moins drôle. Encore merci pour votre aide. Je suis super content de vous avoir trouvé.

We are sending our soon to be Kindergartner to Bay Language Academy on Bay Farm. It seems like a great place. I think they have two day a week options and arrange for pick-up from Bay Farm school as well as Otis and Edison I believe.

C'est vraiment sympa de vous occuper si bien des enfants.  Le but étant de se familiariser avec la langue et de développer leurs connaissances culturelles. On voit que vous aimez vraiment ce que vous faites, j'ai eu de la chance de tomber sur votre école lors de mes recherches. Bonne journée.

This is an absolutely wonderful after school program. My daughter has grown so much since attending this program this past school year (and she was in TK). Not only do they learn another language (Spanish, French, etc...), but they really work with the kids on their reading and writing. My daughter went into the school year not knowing all of her letters. Now she knows all of her letters, can read some words, and sounds out words. Sure, TK had something to do with this, but the after school program here really, really helped. I can't say enough good things about this program. And Essia is wonderful with the kids; very loving and nurturing. The kids absolutely love her.

Thank you for having the party early. She had fun! We really enjoy having Her at Bay Language Academy. She looks forward to going :) Thank you again.

I sincerely appreciate the time you have always spent with us explaining how your Spanish and French programs work, and discussing Ella's language development. It is wonderful to see how passionate you are about language, culture, and language instruction.

I am very happy to have an after school option to teach Timothy Korean. We would love to be able to have Timothy attend for that week. After that we will be flying to Korea.   I always look for Korean language learning materials when in Seoul at Kyopo bookstore when I am there. If  Bay Language Academy is interested in, I am happy to look for books.   Thank you again. Timmy really enjoyed challenging himself with the materials at the Academy.

I agree Is really hard to make Tom sit down but most of the time once he sits down and there isn't a lot distraction he can finish fast . Thanks and let me know if I can help

We are starting to think about aftercare options for next year, and are interested in sending our boys back to Bay Language Academy again since I really do think it's a great program where they will likely learn more than at other places.

Thank you so much for you time.  I was VERY taken by the academy. The smiles on the kids faces as they arrived was very impressive!

You've been wonderful and we're very excited at how happy Phoebe seems to be with your program.

I am sending you pictures of  the girls taken at Bay Language Academy. They had a really good time there. They go to a language school in Hsinchu twice a week now. I have been trying to build a English speaking environment at home but is yet to be successful. I’ll keep trying… At least, they are a lot more interested in learning English than they were a year ago and that is good. Thank you very much for your patience and encouragement for my daughters. Have a great school year and I hope to see you again.

I am very pleased with  my son's language abilities, these couple of years going to the bay language Academy were really good.

Thank you very much, I truly appreciate your help. Sincerely

Thank you for everything over the camp.  Audra had a wonderful time!

Isabel enjoyed the class very much and was especially proud of her tutoring responsibility! She came home each day saying vocabulary words as she came through the door, and was eager to teach them to me. I would like her to take the Korean class, and she is adamant that she must take that class. I really want to support that!

My daughter, Anna, has been enjoying the Korean class. What are the options during school on an on-going basis?

Also, I have another daughter,  who is more intermediate in that she can read the whole alphabet and knows much more extensive vocabulary, although she cannot say complete sentences.

Thank you so much for the good week.  Lucy had a great time this week- she seemed much more comfortable and motivated than the previous week. could you please remind me the time and dates of the French class.   I can tell she is learning a lot because she's talking a lot of French at home!  Thank you so much.  :)

Layla certainly seems to be speaking more French at home, so I think that's great progress.  She also seems to really enjoy going to camp every day.  Layla still talks about you and French camp, she says that you are "strict but nice", which I think is a wonderful compliment!  We're excited that she'll be back in mid-August, and we're also looking toward the Fall. Bien a vous.

Essia, thank you for everything you've done for us. Our time at BLA has been wonderful and provided us with a good foundation for the future. Soon, you have been such a wonderful teacher and we've loved seeing you every week. Please keep in contact with us! :)

She had a wonderful time during her French camp - she was so excited to tell me everything that she did.  Thank you so much for the experience, and we are looking forward to the week in August.

First of all, let me say that Soon, you and your Academy have been wonderful. Not only have you introduced me to the language and some of Korean culture, but Soon encouraged me to inquire more than I thought I would and it's already been incredibly eye-opening. I only wish I had known about this group sooner!

Obviously, I will highly recommend your school to my colleagues. It has been a wonderful experience, and really, a life-changer.

Please let me know if you need anything further from us. Many thanks for everything.

You took excellent care of my children, and I cannot thank you enough

Mes filles ont passé de très bons temps avec vous au'jourdhui. Zoe n'a pas voulu partir! Elles ont regardé les trois présentations ce soir et garde leurs dossiers près d'elles tout l'après-midi.

I have to tell you that I was making Maggie do language camp very much despite her protestations.  She was grumbling and complaining about having to do French camp ever since I told her she was doing two weeks this summer.  You can imagine my delight when I come home today and she's eagerly showing off what she learned, asking me to speak French with her at home, and showing all of us her binder from today.  Based on what all the great things I've heard about Bay Language Academy, and given that her dad and I both have an ear for language, I expected she would enjoy it once she started.  But I didn't expect her to turn around so enthusiastically so soon.  Great work! Thanks again.

I am impressed by what I hear from your school. We are looking forward to attend the Summer Intensive in June.

Both my son and daughter take French from Essia and I couldn't be more confident in recommending her summer camps and her regular classes. I am a teacher myself, with very high expectations, and have looked far and wide for a solid French program for my children. We have gone so far as to take our older child into the city for French programs; honestly, she didn't learn as much at these other programs as she has from Essia. I think the difference is that Essia's camps and classes are cultural and linguistic and so it's the whole picture. The kids walk in and it's as if they are walking into another country, so they learn the language and the mannerisms and the nuances of the language and culture. I like too, that there is work she gives them to reinforce the materials and that she stays in regular contact with the families, so we know what our child is learning and can help reinforce the lessons at home. I haven't specifically checked the Mandarin program know that Essia runs true language classes and like the other parent said, holds a very high standard. Essia too, is such a warm and welcoming woman. Even my son, who is quite shy, warmed up to her and felt comfortable with her right away. I appreciate too, that she is willing to make adjustments as needed to suit the needs of the individual student.

My son has been taking French for the past two years at Bay Language Academy. He is young - 5.5, he loves his class and his teacher, Essia (the founder). He also went to summer sessions there last year. While he's not in the Mandarin class I can tell you that Essia has very high standards for content and truly loves children so I know the additional teachers she hires will have a similar approach. Call her and get more details. We could not be happier.

All these glowing reviews of Bay Language Academy are spot on, and the enthusiasm for the director is more than legit as my children have been attending for a couple of years. The program that Essia has created is high-quality at a reasonable price.

My daughter (9) has attended Bay Language Academy for 2 years now and I cannot recommend it enough. She loves going there because they teach in a way that is fun they don't even realize how much they are learning. The director, Essia, has created a warm, positive, learning environment with wonderful teachers they provide weekly updates on what they are learning (that helps us out because we do not speak Mandarin).

We have also had a great experience with Bay Language Academy over the last almost two years. The classes are well thought out and organized, and Essia the Director is very committed to a positive and successful learning experience for all children. In particular, activities for kids are fun, engaging, and age appropriate, and regular communication with parents is excellent. Wonderful program!

When I approached Essia about taking an adult French class, she spent a lot of time evaluating me and coached me to make sure I was entering at the right level. Our classes were very fun and comfortable. Essia loved teaching us so much that every week our classes ran overtime. We had a lot of fun learning and the breaks were great - delicious with beverages, baguettes and fromage. Essia even made crêpes for us.

My daughter loves taking French classes there!

My 5th grader and a few of his friends are taking Spanish at the Academy.  It is a great value, convenient, and they are having fun while they learn. Highly recommended.

The founder of Bay Language Academy, is an incredible woman in my book! She started this business as a way to help others since language is one of the most important ways we connect with one another. My youngest son has been taking Mandarin for about a year now and he just loves it, which amazes me since he's usually so particular, but he adores his teacher (even the new one) and the curriculum is both engaging and interactive, which has helped him retain what he has learned. Now my oldest is also taking the same class, and his review of his first day was "awesome!" This is a high quality program at a very reasonable rate. Your child will benefit so greatly from learning any of the many languages they offer (I know they offer French, Russian, Korean, Spanish, etc.), and even you and other adults would also greatly benefit to learn a new language or refresh an old one. Lastly, their location is just breath-taking as they're situated within the Harbor Bay Business Park that oversees the tranquil ocean and beautiful San Francisco skyline, which is just icing on the cake.

We love Essia and Bay Language Academy. Great teachers and beautiful facility. Very highly recommended. My daughter loves Matt, the Spanish teacher. Very friendly atmosphere and kid friendly.

We have your picture with Jenna on the wall so that we talk about you and the school from time to time.  Jenna has learned her first sentences while in your  French immersion classes and progressed so much since then. Do we have to wait until Jenna is 9 years old to attend the linguistic trip? We'd love to go now! Lol. Anyway, we'd love to tell you more in person.
