Little Estrellas is a wonderful way to introduce your child to a second language while his or her brain is most receptive to language acquisition. Children will learn vocabulary, hear and understand Spanish spoken by fluent speakers, and develop an appreciation of other cultures through fun, engaging activities. Our awesome teachers make learning Spanish fun for young children. Kids love “Nacho el Leon” the lion puppet, our courageous class mascot. They also love the songs, games and art projects that are an integral part of each class.

- Have enhanced memory, planning and multi-tasking skills
- Often perform better than their monolingual peers on standardized test, including all sections of the SAT
- Have greater opportunities for college careers
- Can easily acquire a natural-sounding, native-like accent
