Welcome!  歡迎

Premier International Language Academy is a unique, year-round, private day school located near Cupertino and Saratoga: the heart of Silicon Valley. Our school serves Preschool through Grade 8. Our Chinese curriculum is a balanced instructional program in Mandarin with a strong focus on math and science. We effectively utilize technology to teach and learn. As a high performing Chinese immersion school, we provide the advantage of small classes, highly qualified credentialed staff, differentiated instruction for each child, and an international educational perspective. 

Why We Offer Chinese:
  • A Mandarin Immersion curriculum is cutting–edge.
  • There are many Chinese bilingual schools in Silicon Valley, but PILA is the only one offering an immersion program, established by credentialed educators, rooted in sound pedagogy, and based on the pioneering Canadian immersion model.
  • Chinese is a practical language to learn, given that China is the world’s most populous nation and it is spoken throughout Asia: Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong.
  • Being bilingual in Chinese and English will open many doors for our students in the future.
  • The U.S. State Dept. considers Mandarin a “Super Critical Needs Language”.
