Testimonials

We've been fans of Jump for 2 years now. Immersion is the best way to learn a language, and it's not scary for kids. We don't speak Mandarin at home, and we as parents are even learning a little. It's just a great way to learn for kids in this young age. I'm confident that this will set them up for success in later years. The academic curriculum is incredibly strong but most of all the teachers are so warm and nurturing. The staff is what really sets Jump apart from others. While I loved our prior daycare facilities, this is much more like a school. The Jump team is responsive to any communication, proactive in anticipating students' (and parents') needs, and flexible to unique circumstances. They transitioned seamlessly into high quality virtual programming with materials that we picked up every few weeks to supplement the live online learning. We've been back in person since September, and their safety protocols have kept my kids safe and engaged - I'm just so thankful for the Jump team this year. They have a great before and aftercare program as well, with a mix of activities and unstructured play. The summer camp is incredibly thoughtful with the combination of fun and intellectual activity - my girls loved the space weeks. And back pre-COVID they took them on really fun field trips. For two working parents who wanted their kids in a challenging yet nurturing environment, Jump is the perfect choice.

We have been a part of the Jump family for 2.5 years now and it is the best choice we have made for our daughter. As parents who neither speak Mandarin, it was a worry of ours that our daughter would not be able to speak with her own grandparents. Our daughter is 5yo now. She is now able to speak, read, & write in both Mandarin and English and communicates with her grandparents beautifully. She even understands all her math, science, and history concepts in Mandarin! Jump is a compassionate organization and really get to know your children’s strengths and weaknesses on an individual basis. It is a high-quality education mixed with a whole lot of engaging, fun activities for the kids as well as for parents!

My daughter attended the mandarin program at Jump Immersion School from Pre-k 4 - 1st grade. We had an over whiningly positive experience and the school quickly became a second home to my daughter. She received an excellent education, became fluent in mandarin ( it is not spoken at home) and was given the emotional support needed during a challenging period of her childhood. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about the school and their staff. This is a hidden gem in the Westfield/Scotch Plains area.

My child has attended this school for 3 years. The school is well managed with constant communication to the parents. The teachers are caring and nurturing. The curriculum is on par to children's level. The school fosters a sense of community to the students and their family.

This school is amazing! Our 3 kids have been in the school for 2 years now and we absolutely love it! All the teachers are fantastic. Ms. Gabriela the kindergarten teacher is sweet with the kids and so organized in the classroom. She pays attention to the smallest details with each and every student. Ms. Claudia the pre-k3 teacher is super fun, sweet and amazing with our child in her classroom where they are learning so much everyday. The school director Ms. Duve is really accommodating and flexible with any parent concerns and/or questions. Overall, we are just really satisfied with the learning environment and experience that our children are receiving at Jump and grateful to all the teachers and staff that have made it possible. We would highly recommend it to any parent considering the program for their child.

My son has been attending Jump for 2 years both Pre-K and Kindergarten. Our experience has been extremely positive. The personal attention and warmth the staff offers each child is evident. Our son is speaking and starting to read in Spanish. The teachers work with each student on life skills, math, Spanish, English and art. He loves school and the friendships he has developed and it is a community. The parents I have been with both years have all been extremely supportive and engaged and that adds to the incredible atmosphere. We drive 45 min.to bring him because we love the school and we see how much he has advanced in the language and social skills.

Wonderful environment for my son's education! Attentive and nurturing teachers and caregivers, well planned curriculum, and informative weekly newsletter summarizing activities. My son loves going to Jump!

Jump school is amazing! We love the philosophy of the school!. The location and the teachers are great, my son comes home happy and talking about the activities, and also, the communications and administrative support are excellent and very valuable.

Both my son and I love Jump! He loves having his friends and teachers there and I love knowing that he is being immersed in another language and culture by dedicated teachers and staff. The program is great and the people who work there really make the difference. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking to have their child learn another language from a young age.
