We love TSA, the teachers genuinely care for my little girl. She looks forward to every single day she has at school. They offer such a warm, positive and educational experience for her. At almost 2 strangers are impressed that she is already bilingual. Thank you TSA, I recommend them to other parents and parents-to-be!

I have been so pleased with my family’s experience with Texas Spanish Academy. We have had experience with both campuses and each one upholds the owners’ standards of safety, professionalism, cleanliness, and overall well-being for my child. We have had the most experience with the infant room, where they intentionally keep the numbers low, and I cannot sing enough praises about the teachers in that room. As a first time mom, I consider myself very blessed to have had this smooth experience with a daycare.

We love Texas Spanish Academy. The teachers and the owner/director, Edina, are amazing. Since the day we did our tour, it was clear that they were very caring and had a passion for education. My toddler who is very, very attached had a little bit of trouble acclimating to being away from home, but his teachers were so warm and welcoming and made an extra effort to help him through the transition.

I have never been around more loving and devoted people before we brought our daughter to this school. I always felt comfort that my child was safe. The teachers are absolutely incredible and my child was described as fluent in Spanish after almost 3 years at this school. I highly recommend TSA and am forever grateful for the impact that they have made in our lives.

Speaking as an educator, this is the place for evidence-based language immersion. The teachers receive professional development to implement research-based instruction that maximizes student acquisition of Spanish. Additionally, they are the kindest, most loving teachers my children have ever had. The director is charming and always available. They deal with discipline with positive behavior strategies. I cannot say enough good things about this school. We will miss it when our littlest one goes to kindergarten in the Fall, but we know she is prepared to transition into Round Rock ISDs dual language program.

My husband and I are so happy to have found this gem. We always wanted our children to be bilingual, because neither of us had that opportunity. My son is in the preschool class and I can not believe how quickly he is picking up the songs, the words, and even the dictation. The owners have been wonderful and the all of the teachers have been incredible. Our little girl is in the infant room where I have never seen such peace- always someone singing.We read, sing, and talk to our children at home in English and I absolutely believe that my children will be well above their peers when they go to school.We love it and we are so happy to be able to offer this extra education to our children.

If you are looking for a truly excellent preschool program (or full time childcare!), which will not only prepare your child for school, but also immerse your child in a second language during critical formative years, check out Texas Spanish Academy!!! This Spanish language immersion school is unique & awesome and comes with my full recommendation. Do some research on the brain benefits of early exposure to a second language, not to mention all the future opportunities that come with being bilingual. Our son is doing fabulously here.

Me and my wife love Texas Spanish Academy and talk about it all the time with other parents. They are amazed at our sons Spanish speaking skills and the teachers really do care. Even though hes a handful, they are very patient and caring. It fees great knowing he is safe, having fun and learning so much at his age. I would highly recommend TXSA to any parent.

I love Texas Spanish Academy. They are like a family to me. Its teachers and staff are always happy and in a great disposition to teach our kids while they are having fun. My family has been with them for almost 3 years and I am proud to recommend this school for all families that are looking for bilingual atmosphere for their kids.

I think this is a good school for a lot of kids. They are especially adept at helping children learn Spanish---my child was starting to speak Spanish at home after only a year. But, overall it wasnt a good place for my kiddo. It was loud and chaotic in the classroom when he was there. After a year, that took its toll. He started being defiant with the teachers---due to anxiety and overwhelm--and they never found a way to help him calm down. The administrator asked us to leave in August. While that was a difficult experience, it was a tremendous blessing. Ive learned a lot---chiefly that all behavior is communication. If a child is acting out he is trying to tell you something. What our child was communicating was that he didnt feel safe or good @TSA. We took a good, honest look at our parenting, our childs personality, and at the school environment. We consulted with a play therapist throughout that time. And four months later I can honestly say it was mostly the school environment. Within a week of leaving the school and starting at a new one my kiddo stopped chewing on his shirt (a habit he had developed to deal with his anxiety at the old school). Hes done great at his new school so far. When I was visiting other schools I told them frankly about all the difficult behaviors he was exhibiting @TSA. The school I chose was warm, loving, structured and the director said, We are committed to kiddos. We love them and we dont kick them out for ANY reason. That, my friends, is where its at. Thats what real love looks like. And I am so thankful for this change. I am writing this long review in case any other parents who read this (at any school) have experienced being asked to leave. You are not alone. If they dont want your kid there---if they arent equipped or committed or creative enough to figure out what their behavior is communicating---then dust your shoes off and find a better place. Our kids are worth the very best. Sometimes TSA is the very best---but sometimes its not.

My son started recently at TXSA, the past weeks have been great. The staff seems very loving and attentive to him, he has not cried since the first drop off. I was very nervous putting him into a facility since he had been at home for so long, but the transition has been more than amazing. I feel truly blessed to have found such a great place for my son and would recommend TXSA to any parent out there. Ill do another update in a couple of months, but so far a dream school.FOLLOWUPAfter just four weeks at TXSA I was called to withdraw my son. Prior to this my husband and I were called what seemed like every other day to go and pick up my son b/c he had bitten another child while the teachers back was turned. One two separate occasions I was told he was suspended for 2 days. At the time my son was only 17 1/2 months old. Very typical behavior for his age group (although he had never had the issue before or at home) but they seemed very very rude and it always happened when the teacher back was turned. I couldnt believe about the suspension, and was even more upset when they said he couldnt return. Since then I enrolled him in Stepping Stone and we have not had any issues. They said he is a sweet boy with no problem playing with others. I did notice a change in his behavior after a couple of weeks with TXSA but didnt think much of it, now I have a feeling the staff either ignored or didnt pay much attention to him. I feel horrible I left him at such a place with no love or comfort. Im couldnt be happier with the move to Stepping Stone, the price is more affordable, they provide lunches and snacks and my child is much happier!

As a first time mom, I had no idea what to expect when it came to leaving my child in someone elses care. I quickly learned I had high expectations when things werent so great at our first childcare location. When I heard about Texas Spanish Academy and met the family who created this amazing school I knew I had to get my little girl in! The idea of my sweet girl learning duel languages as she grows up is incredible and the fact that the school district has strong programs in place to continue fostering what she has already learned and to continue learning helped us to make this decision a no-brainer when deciding to invest in our childs future at such a young age. While the program is amazing, the incredible caregivers are what make this place worth everything to me. My 8 month old is taken care of by every single person that is employeed at this facility. They greet her every morning and love on her like she is their own. My daughter has several people looking out for her during her day at school. They care for her, teach her, and comfort her. I feel as though they are an extension of myself. I never worry if she is in good hands. Her teacher can get her to eat her food better than I can. They communicate effectively on what changes are happening while Im away and pay attention to the changes in her development. What more could a mom ask for? Well, then I was introduced to events that the school puts on: visits and photos with Santa, school pictures, Spanish Fun Day, Parent Night Out (one of my favorites), holiday parties, Family Night Out. This school has a facebook page for all the parents and it creates a community outside of school. Edina and Matt Morrison have literally thought of everything. Every detail and time put into this school is what makes it amazing. There is no other place for my little girl and future kiddos to spend their days before starting school than at Texas Spanish Academy.

We moved our daughter to Texas Spanish Academy when they opened. Going from 20 kids to about 5 has helped our daughter come out of her shell and has given her the more personal attention needed to focus on getting ready for preschool. I love how the teachers are native speakers - it helps a lot with proper pronunciation. We also enjoy the feeling of family Sra. Edina and Sr. Matt convey through Parents Night Out and Family Night Out. Its hard to find a preschool that teaches the kids what they need to know and also gives you the warm fuzzies. We are so glad to have found TSA!!!!

Not advisable place to take your children, the address is not would be, when a teacher leaves you are paid less than you should (maybe part of your business is staff instability ...) even if you try to give an impression of cordiality have in He says that whoever does this with their workers may fool the parents. On the other hand, the reference I have is that children become violent, teachers do not remain and so there can be no systematic sustained work.

Review №15

I understand that many workers quit. No one lasts long. It is very unstable and when a teacher decides to leave they do not get paid what they work ... it is extremely unfair that they are paid less because they decide.
