The teachers provide an engaging and supportive environment for children to learn Mandarin through play and interactive activities. My child has developed language skills, an appreciation for Chinese culture and age appropriate skills.

We started our oldest daughter at ICC at four. Our only regret is that we didn’t enroll her earlier. She made lasting friendships that will continue to grow as many of her classmates have continued with her in elementary school. We have a younger daughter that we enrolled in ICC at two years old and currently attends.

My daughter started at ICC just this school year for pre-k and so far we are blown away by our child’s education! The teachers work very closely with the parents to make sure the students are progressing to the best of their abilities. The faculty as a whole has been great with my child(she talks about everyone at the school so much I feel like I personally know them too!) and work together to provide the best for the students. I highly recommend anyone looking for their child to not only learn Chinese but also looking to really enhance the students understanding in English and math as well to consider this fantastic school! I know they start at 2 years old and my only regret is not knowing about this place back then! 5 stars!

We are so grateful we found this place. When we enrolled our daughter our main goal was for her to learn mandarín Chinese. The ICC school had exceeded our expectations. We don't speak Chinese ourselves, but I have seen my 26 mouths old girl at home, counting in Chinese, calling out colors, singing (those are the things I can identify). I know she knows many other things that we don't understand. And more than the language itself, our daughter has been improving her fine/gross mottor and social skills as well. The whole staff is very nice and joyful. My husband and I highly recommend this school for early childhood education. We look forward to see our precious daughter become an independent, strong and multilingual young girl while having fun at the ICC school.

We enrolled our son almost half a year ago and I wish we would have found the ICC sooner! When he first started he could already understand Mandarin but did not want to speak it. Now, he can nearly complete full sentences and his confidence has grown exponentially thanks to his wonderful teachers and the amazing administration. I was so happy that their education curriculum continued through Kindergarten. I know we will be sad to leave after this year but the ICC School has been instrumental in him learning Mandarin and we will forever be grateful for such nurturing and caring teachers.

This is a little gem hidden in Chinatown and I wish I knew ICC school earlier when my son first started daycare. He experienced 3 different daycares and cried during morning drop offs for weeks/months. Finally, we found ICC! He walked in ICC on the first day felt right at home and didn’t shed a single tear. What a game changer! No more crying and holding my legs in the morning routines! All teachers and stuff are very professional and friendly, and he always asks me to pick him up the last so he can stay and play longer.He started with ICC barely knowing any Chinese words, and less than 4 months later, he can recite Chinese poems, sing Chinese songs, write Chinese words, and most impressively, he started to use simple Chinese sentence to express himself. I couldn’t believe how much he has learned and grown at ICC, and I want to thank all the teachers and staff again for creating such a welcoming & loving environment for kids to learn and play!

The best school experience for any child! From the start, ICC staff has been the most professional and accommodating. My daughter is always happy to go to school, and I get updates of her having fun and learning every time. They have a great curriculum, educating and celebrating all types of holidays/occasions and diversity. I love that about them. The kids get outdoor play too, rain or shine. I can't count the number of times they have helped me out as a parent as well. We will miss them. Thank you so much for all you do! :)

We have two young kids who have been going to ICC for a while now - long enough for me to be comfortable leaving a review.My wife and I both love the school and our kids do as well. From the beginning, the staff wanted to know how they can teach the kids to help them where they are at and get them where they need to be. They have tools to track progress and show you how they are doing.They also truly encourage learning Chinese Mandarin even when kids may be reluctant and want to speak in English. But it's not heavy-handed forcing, but just encouraging Mandarin - at least when speaking with the teachers. There's only so much you can do when kids talk to each other in English.My wife loves that we get a lot of photos and videos throughout the day to see how the kids are doing. That allows us to follow up with them after we pick them up, asking them what they did and learned. At our kids age, they don't remember everything (or sometimes anything lol), so that really helps.Bottom line is that the teachers really care about our children. They care about their intellectual and social development. It shows in what they do and the communication with the parents, which we really appreciate.

Our 4 year old daughter loves coming to ICC and adores her teachers. They are nurturing, kind and patient. I feel privileged to have such passionate teachers care for our girl. Their curriculum is well-rounded and the daily posts of their activities are helpful in keeping me involved throughout her day. Jade and her team's communication and safety protocols during the pandemic have been excellent.

My 4 year old son loves ICC. The teachers there are passionate and provide the Mandarin environment for my son. They also post many activities photos and videos during the day so I can see what is going on in the school. The teachers also communicate with Parents all the time and responsive. Thus, I highly recommend this school!

My daughter started the day care at ICC when she was right around 2 years old. The faculty here and the school app which shows daily activities (photos and videos) make us feel very professional and reliable. My son started going to ICC when he was about 18 months and he is very happy everyday!!!

We enrolled both kids at ICC after research. Within not even 3 month, my 5.5 year old girl started to read《Brown Bear Brown Bear》in Chinese! ICC teachers helped her with her confidence build up! She transformed from a shy girl who doesn't speak Mandarin to reading & talking! Now she is graduating ICC in 2 weeks, we already enrolled her to ICC Saturday school and of course we will come back next year for summer camp!

ICC teachers are kind, attentive, and caring. They have a great system to keep us appraised of the kids' activities throughout the day, teach them to write and speak Mandarin, and have consistently maintained cleanliness throughout the pandemic. The director is tremendously communicative. We're so happy to have found ICC after extensively searching for a language school.

Our twins have been at ICC since they were 18 months old. We don’t speak Mandarin at home, yet ICC has taught our kids to speak Mandarin in sentences and conversationally. We’re all quite impressed with how much they’ve picked up. The teachers are very kind, experienced, and patient. The activities are nurturing and the school teaches life skills. Student to teacher ratio is low, so our kids haven’t been ill like in typical daycares.
