A leader in bilingual education, The French American Academy offers students a private education in both French and English in New Jersey (USA).
The positive, nurturing, and creative learning environment blends traditional and progressive approaches with newer teaching techniques in order to promote greater cognitive and social growth, multi-cultural understanding, individual confidence and self-expression. An early and continuing bilingual education has been proven to strengthen a child’s fundamental ability to listen, reason, focus, multi-task, and communicate better. It also helps children perform better in non-language courses, like Math and Science. Finally, it promotes cultural fluency which helps children adapt more easily in today's global community.
The French American Academy serves students from Pre-K through 9th grade. The Academy also hosts after-school activities in French, enrichment classes, summer programs for children, and language classes for adults. The French American Academy has three campus locations: Jersey City - Downtown, Jersey City - The Heights and Englewood, New Jersey.
