Language Immersion
Our dual-language programs teach Mandarin and Spanish through Montessori-aligned activities for children aged 2-12. Certified instructors use immersive techniques like cultural lessons, music, and interactive play to develop fluency. Students gain cognitive benefits from bilingualism while building global awareness in a supportive environment.
Infant/Toddler Program
Designed for children 6 months to 2.5 years, this program focuses on sensory development and foundational skills through Montessori materials. Small groups ensure personalized attention while nurturing motor skills, language acquisition, and social interaction in a secure, stimulating setting.

For ages 2.5-5, our curriculum combines Montessori methods with STEAM activities and language immersion. Children learn at their own pace through hands-on materials, developing literacy, math concepts, and cultural understanding while building independence and social skills.

This enrichment program supports K-12 students with homework help, academic reinforcement, and extracurricular activities. Bilingual instruction continues while fostering organizational skills and responsibility in a structured environment for working families.

My son has made great strides even though he's only been at Spring Academy for 4 months. He can now count to 10 and sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in Chinese. He is already starting to trace letters and having better gross motor capabilities. As a mom, one of the best things is when I say "mommy hand", he immediately holds my hand which makes me feel very safe with him especially when we are walking in busy intersections. Overall, my son has gained confidence and I can tell that the love that the devoted teachers have for him has helped him grow academically and socially. There have been times

I really appreciated what Spring Academy Westfield provided to my son! My son was a bit headstrong when he joined 2 years ago, the teachers and staff such as Ms. Cindra and Ms. Joy are so nurturing and ensures he gets great care and education that fits his personality! He is now so well behaved and doing great both academically and socially, he knows so much science and has such a broad knowledge span. I highly recommend Spring Academy Westfield to everyone who needs a preschool.

I have two sons attending, aged 2 and 4. My husband and I are very happy with this school and its wonderful, loving, and engaged teachers. Both of my sons get close customized attention and they get exposed to such a wide variety of things - - science, environmental consciousness, music, chinese calligraphy, math, poetry, spanish, yoga, art, tae kwon do, respect for elders, care and cooperation with friends chinese folk dance, english and chinese instruction. My husband and I do not speak chinese at home (I speak Cantonese and my husband is white) but my 4 year old is speaking and singing

This school is amazing! My son has been attending for 3 months now and he loves it. As parents we feel super happy to see how much he is learning every day. The teachers are GREAT!!! I can't say enough good things about Miss Vanessa and Ms. Maggie. They are caring, compassionate and lightly qualified. This school offers the opportunity to educate my child not only on the traditional school subjects; but they also have music class and martial arts. I LOVE IT!!!
