  LePort has been excellent. The staff are very kind, attentive, and take great care of our kids. We are especially grateful for Ms. Chen and Ms. Li. They and the rest of the staff have helped our kids become confident and curious while maintaining a safe environment.

  Leport IM has exceeded my expectations for my child’s early development. We are truly satisfied with the care the teachers provide. Fang Fang Yang laoshi; If your child is lucky enough to be placed in her class as ours was, Her attention to the children with her teaching abilities combined creates a warm atmosphere for young learners. Yang laoshi has always been communicative and transparent with any situation that may arise. Grace Li laoshi; as gentle as can be. When she worked with our child as a teachers assistant, it was a relief to see her in the school yard interacting with students rather than just only supervising. She’s able to scan the yard and focus on her students safety and happiness. Students from any class can turn to her for comfort, she’s always very welcoming with open arms for any of them. She is currently a toddler teacher in her own classroom. Front Office; Extremely helpful and communicative. Understands the needs and wants of all parents and students that walk through those doors. Not limited to only phone calls and messages, Their attention to child safety is highly critical. Principal; For the time my child attended Leport IM, We are truly happy with the way the staff and children are treated. It is evident that there is a strong structure in place, and development days are crucial to ensuring all teachers are following guidelines and protocols correctly. Jackie Alderiso has always been above reproach when it comes to the children’s enrichment. She always listens to concerns and mitigates with ease. Leport IM is an easy choice. When the school is willing to work with the parent, just as much as the parent is willing to work with the school, The child will get the most out of it.

  We’ve had two kids attend Leport Mandarin Immersion and our family has had a wonderful experience. My oldest started in the Primary Class with Li Laoshi and she was able to adjust quickly. Li Laoshi was wonderful at communicating her progress and answering all my questions about the curriculum. My youngest started right at 18 months in Chow Laoshi's class. She was extremely patient and warm with my youngest as it was a difficult transition for her. Now at 2.5 years old she is independent and looks forward to being in class. The faculty is dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment. Ms. Jackie, the Head of School, is exceptional. She addresses any questions or concerns promptly and it's clear that she truly cares about every child. Our daughters have picked up Mandarin so quickly and it's amazing to see them using the language naturally in their daily lives. The school does an excellent job of incorporating language learning into everyday activities in a fun and engaging way. We also love the events throughout the year which has given us the opportunity to connect with other families. Beyond teaching important academic and life skills, the school does a great job of introducing Chinese culture. We are grateful to have found a place where both of our daughters are happy, supported, and excited to learn every day. We highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for an enriching environment for their children.

  We cannot recommend Grace Li Laoshi and Yolanda Yang Laoshi highly enough! The headteachers and assistant teachers at LePort Montessori Irvine Mandarin Immersion have an amazing gift for truly understanding each child’s individual personality and adjusting their teaching to meet specific needs. Yang Laoshi worked wonders with our oldest child, who has now moved on to a public immersion school. She is absolutely excelling there, which we credit largely to the incredible foundation Yang Laoshi built—nurturing her social skills, her love for music, and her early language development. Now, Li Laoshi is doing an equally phenomenal job with our youngest. Thanks to their patience and consistency, our youngest is flourishing socially, learning the language beautifully, and mastering big milestones like potty training and becoming more orderly. The genuine care and personalized attention both teachers provide is unmatched. Thank you both for giving both of our children such a beautiful, lasting start to their education!

  We have two kids enrolled here at both the toddler and primary programs and both kids are thriving here. After the initial weeks, they have never had a bad day and are always looking forward to school. It’s too bad we have to move because the kids are having so much fun here. The “work” that they bring home are also thoughtful. I like also that the teachers are not constantly taking pictures so they are actually engaged with the children more. Our kids are native Mandarin speakers and their Chinese language abilities are on track for native speakers. The administration team was easy and pleasant to work with and overall I would recommend the school to anyone looking for quality Chinese immersion program!
