I was lucky enough to get an appointment with Mrs Mei last year October, when everyone seemed to have registered their kids somewhere.I like that Mission San Jose Children’s Center is in line with Montessori method of teaching. And I especially love that Mrs Mei is such a loving and caring teacher! There were kids eagerly waiting in line to enter the classroom on the first day I dropped off my son. None of the kids were crying nor having a hard time saying goodbye to parents. That is how I know for sure this is the right place to go!And thank you Mrs Mei for all your holiday gifts. We love the sunglasses and candies.I highly recommend this place!

My 3 year old daughter has learnt a lot while she has been here. Most importantly she looks forward to going to school everyday. Highly recommended school. Was very happy with overall experience here.

We were worried about our son’s social skills, that’s why we sent him to school at an early age. Before we found MSJCC, we’ve tried other preschools. One is also Montessori, but we didn’t see much improvement in him and the teachers were not giving enough feedbacks. The other one has a large scale regarding the campus and number of students, and is more academic-oriented. However, through the communications with the teachers, we can tell that the teachers there only want “good students”. They indicated that our son is not quite “behaved“ because he loves to explore around and wouldn’t sit still and stay focused. I mean, by that time he just turned 2, curiosity is his nature.Last year, we decided to send our 2.5 year old kid to Mission San Jose Children’s Center. We love everything about the school and it’s definitely one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. The teachers are more than responsible. Ms Mei gives us feedbacks every day. She also found out that our son had a rather late development in social & language skills, and had a short attention span. Instead of judging our son, she gave us a lot of advice on his development, and meanwhile appreciated the potentials in him. Other teachers are nice too, and my son likes his teachers! They truly know the concept of Montessori, embracing kids with different personalities and helping them grow in accordance with their aptitude.My son is now 3. It has been half a year since he started in MSJCC. It’s not a very long time but we are so surprised about how big progress he has made! Including but not limited to his language development, good daily schedule, social skills, ability to keep focused, etc.

All 3 of my kids went to or are still going to MSJCC. The teaching staff there are really caring and friendly. Miss Mei is really great. Even after graduating from preschool, Miss Mei welcomes my older kids to visit their younger sibling still at MSJCC when picking him up at the end of the day. Glad we found this little gem in the neighborhood.

MSJCC is an excellent Montessori school for kids. My son went this school for last 2 and half year. I can see clear transformation in him. Best part is Miss Mei and her staff focus on basic etiquette and all around development. It helps us lot as parents. I would highly recommend.

My first impression of this preschool is clean and tidy. It is a big classroom, but organized very well. So many education toys for kids to learn and a big playground for kids to play. Mrs. Mei treated our daughter very well. My daughter learned many songs and math concept from her. We are very happy to see my daughter grow at MSJCC.

I googled for preschools in my area and got the "Mission SanJose children's center" in the list. My daughter going to this school from 6 months and we see lot of improvement in her academic and social skills. My wife and I are so happy about this school. At first we were skeptical to send our daughter to this school but we are very happy with her improvement day by day. Teachers are so friendly with kids and parents too. The curriculum is also good. Along with the academic and social skills they teach kids daily activities. Even in the weekends also my daughter asks for school. Teachers do something for very occasion. They make kids to do hand crafts for the occasion. Even my daughter is eating well after going to this school. I definitely recommend this school for the parents who are looking for preschool in Fremont, CA.

I sent my kids here when I first moved to Fremont 2 years ago and it is a great preschool, with warm teachers and friendly children. This is a child centered school where kids get to select activities that interest them during part of the day, and then there is also circle time where they sing songs and learn to follow directions. Outdoor play is very important for young bodies and this place has a safe and clean outside area with play structure and seasonal outdoor activities such as water play in the summer. Lunch is provided during the school year, and it's also open during long breaks and summer for working parents.

My family are grateful for all the staff at MSJCC. Ever since arriving at MSJCC, and especially through the help of Ms. Mei, the director, my son is happier, confident, and more cooperative in group learning and play. Ms. Mei is experienced and patient with the children and knows how to create an atmosphere of harmony. Every morning, soft music plays as the children settle and begin their work periods. Children model naturally formed social etiquette so the younger ones, including my son, can learn from. MSJCC also emphasizes personal hygiene and dignity of the person at a young age; each child is encouraged to brush teeth after lunch before they take their naps, and to practice buttoning own shirts, putting on shoes, or cleaning up after themselves, etc. I am touched that my son can demonstrate control over his own physical needs at such a young age. Besides harmony, good relationship, Montessori practical life materials and personal well-being, Ms. Mei has very creative and artistic ideas for the children. I am genuinely surprised at the carefully wrapped art work and projects (such as a toy sewed up by my own son) my son brings home. My son has learned much fine motor skills here that will surely prepare him for more rigorous Montessori academic work. The large, beautiful artificial turf in the back yard is my son's favorite too, where he can be seen playing hide and seek with older kids, a beautiful and truly harmonious picture. I recommend this place without reservation.

Having just moved to Fremont, I was looking for a preschool for my two year old son. I came across Mission San Jose Children Center. Ms. Mei was so friendly and answered every question I had.I love their curriculum and the fact that they also teach kids daily living activities in addition to learning. By the end of the first year, my son who was so shy was now very social and talkative, knew his colors, numbers and ABC, and was making great progress.I can never thank Ms. Mei and her staff enough. Especially Ms. Kendra and Ms. Soulie. Sadly our family had to move to another city and leave MSJCC.MSJCC was a blessing to my family.

I like the fact that MSCJJ teaches my kids a variety of skills from singing Chinese songs, reading them Diwali story, and doing map crafts to help them understand the globe. Not to mention the essential daily habits such as brushing teeth, correctly wiping/flushing after using toilet, etc.The only thing that I hope can be added on is some meat or more protein for lunch as it's currently served as vegetarian. But it's better than none, right?!

My son has been in this school for almost 2 years. He learned a lot and made many friends, and loved the school very much. During some vacations, the school provides camps which helps a lot when both my wife and I need to work.

I got hooked up to this place the first time I visited. Unlike other Montessori places I visited, all the children were very friendly and outspoken. Both my sons went to this place for their preschool. My second son just graduated today. Ms. Mei is super professional and loving. They not only flourish academically, but also built very good characters and manner. My second son was strong willed and I was so concerned that he would suffer a lot beginning school. Ms. Mei hugged him a lot at lunch, during activity, etc, during his first months to give him the sense of safety that he needed. She really cared so much. She also made a lot of very good recommendations to us as the boys grew. One example of her sense of love is she understand each child has their own schedule, and observes them very carefully to understand their readiness for potty training and napping. She trained my kids when they are ready, and the process went so fast and smooth. This is truly a place that both my boys and I will miss for a long time.
