I have been very happy with the immersion program that Mindbloom is offering at my daughter's school - I even have started encouraging other parents to join the program!
It had been three years since my kid was in a bilingual daycare, so I was not sure whether she would be able to pick it up again easily. And in the beginning, she was frustrated by the lack of English and how she couldn't easily understand everything that was happening. But very quickly, she began to understand her teachers based on context and other non-verbal clues. After 5 weeks in the program, she is now singing songs in Spanish every morning and she looks forward to the program every day. She really enjoys the various activities they do with the children - art projects that incorporate words, letters, colors, body parts, etc. She also likes to tell her little sister the Spanish word for different things and is now trying to get all of us to "roll our R's" in every word. I'm really looking forward to watching/hearing her learn to speak, read, and write in Spanish.
I also really appreciate that Mindbloom wants to engage with the parents and try to meet our needs as a group. Because it's a new program for our school, there are always going to be details that need to be improved. So far, we have found Mindbloom to be very responsive and willing to adjust when requested. My kid is enrolled for the rest of the year and I hope more families will join us as time goes on!
