I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. The entire staff treats my granddaughters like their own children, and you can see that care reflected in everything they do each day. The owner is on-site and very involved, which gives me so much confidence as a grandparent. I am absolutely amazed at how much Spanish my granddaughters, ages 3 and 4, understand, speak, and even write in such a short time, especially since English is their primary language. The communication from the staff is excellent, and they are always kind, responsive, and easy to work with. It is an amazing environment filled with love, structure, and strong adult supervision. Watching how much my granddaughter has learned and grown in Spanish has truly impressed me. I highly recommend this place to any family looking for a caring and enriching experience for their children.
Our two boys both went here over the course of five years - they were so well-loved, thoughtfully prepared for kindergarten, and they made some incredible friends (same for us as we met other great parents). And… it was great hearing their Spanish emerge as they got older/more comfortable with it. Highly recommend this Georgetown gem.
All three of our children have attended the Georgetown Spanish Academy, and have had an absolutely wonderful experience. Patti and the teachers create an environment where the kids feel safe and loved. The approach is play-based learning, which allowed our children to both have the time and space for free play and more structured learning.

The approach is play-based learning, which allowed our children to both have the time and space for free play and more structured learning. Our two oldest daughters are now at Purl Elementary in the dual language program, and the foundations they built through Spanish immersion at GSA were excellent. Lastly, when our middle daughter was 15 months old, she had a seizure while at GSA. I will never be able to thank Patti and the teachers enough...they took amazing care of our daughter, did exactly what they were supposed to do during the seizure, and got her emergency care immediately. Patti followed the ambulance to the hospital to meet us there, and the other teachers made sure our oldest daughter (who was also still at GSA) was taken care of and didn't get scared. We could not have made it through that traumatic experience without the love and support GSA provided. Can't recommend Spanish Academy enough. Great learning approach for the kids, caring and talented teachers, creative art projects and educational activities, and a great overall environment!
My son attended the Spanish Academy from age 11 months to 4 years old. Patti, the director of the school, provides a loving environment and hires teachers who truly care about our children. Patti is an experienced educator who has worked in various educational institutions. As an educator myself, I trust her to provide both academically enriching activities along with fun outdoor play as well. The Spanish Academy offers Spanish-speaking teachers who instill a love for language and culture. I highly recommend the small classroom sizes as well, as this allows your child more attention throughout the day. We love the Spanish Academy! If I have more children, I will be bringing them here as well!
My experience with Georgetown Spanish Academy has been nothing short of amazing. As a parent, finding a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for my child was my top priority, and Georgetown Spanish Academy exceeded all my expectations. From the very first visit, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff is incredibly friendly, professional, and genuinely cares about the well-being and development of each child. They took the time to understand my child's individual needs and interests, which made the transition into this center smooth and stress-free. The facility is clean, well-organized, and equipped with a variety of age-appropriate toys and learning materials. The daily schedule includes a perfect balance of structured activities and free play, promoting both social and cognitive development. My child has learned so much and looks forward to going to school every day.
