In my last review, I wrote that after this school, I could drop my kids off in Japan. As it turns…read moreout, my older daughter has worked for two Japanese offices in Hawaii where she had to communicate (writing and speaking) exclusively in Japanese. In both cases, she was the lone American in the department and she was able to function. I did drop my younger daughter off in Japan for college and she is now working in a Japanese office. Both of my kids have been able to function in a completely Japanese environment thanks to this school.

This is my second time taking Japanese lessons after I took it for two years at UNT in 2000. My…read morereview is for non-native Japanese lessons normally taught on Saturdays. I decided to start off with Level 1, the most basic course they offer. Coming back to Japanese in a non-graded and non-tested format is unusual because the class doesn't have all the testing normally associated with foreign language classes in high school and college in Texas. Japanese at a college level required that I learn hiragana and katakana over the span of six weeks, whereas this course gives you about 10 weeks for only hiragana, with katakana and kanji taught in later courses. The material has a strong focus on numbers early on in the course and the material has a business-minded bent for people who might go over to Japan for work-related reasons. Classes are easy-paced and instructors are patient with new students over pronunciation, character recognition and vocabulary drills. It is normal for classes to start off very crowded and to shrink over time. Some students just do not grasp the concepts taught in Japanese (different sentence structure, learning foreign character-based alphabets) and this was similar to what I experienced in college. Students who struggle are encouraged to attempt to take a class over again to reinforce the concepts and language. The classroom is a mix of different aged students from seniors in high school to actual seniors from a range of backgrounds, so classes are very diverse. Our instructor is a very nice and patient sensei who engages with the class frequently throughout each lesson. Portions of the class involve reviewing homework, doing vocabulary drills, playing "bingo" with hiragana characters, and question and answer worksheets where you talk to fellow classmates. Let me also state that the key to success in this class is through networking with the other students. Having someone else that understands the material from a different perspective can be invaluable when tackling a largely unrecognizable language like Japanese to a native English speaker. People who work alone seem to struggle more and drop out quickly, but if you're willing to work with your group or make a few friends, the class is immensely easier. I'm reviewing only the Level 1 class portion in my review. I will amend it later if/when I attend Level 2 courses.

This is an amazing library! And it's beautiful to look at too!…read more Anyone can get a card to use this library! Access everything on line or in person. It was time to get a library card that was mine! Was time to stop borrowing friend's cards. Why pay for books or buy books when your taxes, as a homeowner, offer you free book rentals! AMAZING!! I love to be read too and you can read a variety of books for free! The best bang for your buck! Really happy I discovered reading books again. Not sure why I ever slowed down. Collin County College is awesome! Simply need to go in person to apply for the card. It's so simple! It gives you access to ALL libraries in Collin county and the State of Texas. Everyone should have a library card! I wish more people would be interested in being part of a library. It's so cool to have access to knowledge. Be extraordinary and join any library across the country! The only draw back is they don't have audiobooks. Suppose students don't have time to read anything but text books! If you return the book late you will be charged late fees. Only fair. There are rules you have to follow. Others are waiting for that book: Be kind and return on time. July 2024

We have been incredibly impressed not only by how much she is learning, but by how thoughtfully the program is put together. The teachers create such fun and creative activities, and they make learning Spanish feel so natural and exciting for the kids. What we really appreciate is how the school balances strong academics with warmth, creativity, and genuine care. Our daughter is not only learning a new language, but is excited about what she is learning and happy to be there. It is hard to find a school that offers this kind of quality while also making each child feel so seen and supported. We are so thankful for Spanish Schoolhouse and would highly recommend it to any family looking for a caring, engaging, and enriching environment.
