Orlando Montessori Bilingual Academy

OMBA has been a wonderful school for our daughter! Her teachers are caring and sweet. They have taught our daughter SO much! She is fully bilingual and loves going to school!

If there was a way to rate 10 stars for OMBA, I would! We were worried about sending our first child to preschool for the first time. However, OMBA made the transition very easy. The school is definitely a home away from home for our child. With only three months in, our child was becoming caring and protective of her siblings and being more independent around the house. Another hidden surprise was that she could already almost count to 20 and greet others in Spanish. Her teachers (Ms. Sonia and Ms. Eliana) are amazing along with the rest of the staff. We are glad that we found the school and we highly recommend OMBA as a school for your young ones.

What a great academy! It’s such a rewarding feeling knowing that my child is attending a school who truly cares for their students and takes the time to give them that one on one attention some need. This specific location ( Dean ) has been one of my biggest blessings for my children. As a father I am very protective and want my children to have the best of the best ( as we all do ! )  From the daily updates on things going on at school campus, to the specifics that have to do with my son in the class room. I love it and couldn’t ask for more. ( & I ask for a lot )  Their core values speak for itself because they hit on every single bullet point ( my child’s Movement and cognition, my child’s Choices,
My child’s Interest , Avoiding extrinsic rewards , Learning from and with his peers,  Learning in context, His Adult interaction with his teachers, even his
Order In Environment and Mind)  They truly believe and practice this every single day. My son is 5 and knows more Spanish than me, already! I want to really emphasize how awesome Ms. Denise & Ms. Ismaely has been. What a great team! Can I give 6 stars!? I hope as my child grows we encounter other teachers as awesome as they have been. I can’t wait for my daughter to begin next year, I really look forward to keeping my children in throughout the whole Montessori cycle.

I have so many wonderful things to say about OMBA. My son has been attending for two years now, and recently my daughter has started preschool as well. Both my kids are strong willed and and my son is also spirited. They use a learning strategy has really helped them blossom and come to love learning. I cannot rave enough about their teachers and their administrative staff... they truly have been amazing, being that my kids can be a challenge, lol.. the teachers have never come to me with judgmental nor critical comments, on the contrary, they have highlighted their strengths and have taken the time to implement different strategies to help cope with the challenges... and this 👆🏼rt here is really all that I can ask for. On the side of that, the creativeness of their festivals, their system of communicating my kids progress by text message and their focus on multi language skills are just a plus. 🙌🏽 We are extremely happy with the decision of enrolling them here. 💜

I homeschooled my son for kindergarten for several reasons, one of them being his significant separation anxiety. The following summer we enrolled him in OMBA’s summer camp program. He had such a smooth, seamless transition that we decided to send him there for first grade. All of the teachers there are so warm and friendly. They are truly invested in their students and they love and care for them as if they were their own children. Professional and loving, their excellent values are reflected in all that they do.  At OMBA they have mastered the delicate art of giving young people the firm guidance needed to develop morally and academically, but at the same time letting kids be kids. Learning is fun, hands on, and, frequently, child led. Students learn at their own pace and the focus is on mastery of concepts, not grades. There is equal focus on the critical task of socioemotional development. On top of all this, every day my son amazes me with how much Spanish he has picked up. We try to reinforce what he is learning, but he does not have any fluent Spanish speakers at home. Nonetheless, his understanding of the language is blossoming. My son has made so many friends at OMBA and he adores his teachers. Coming from a child who swore to me he would NEVER go to school, this speaks volumes. When I drop him off each day, I feel like I am leaving him with family. I recommend OMBA wholeheartedly, without hesitation.

My kids have been attending this school for several years now. I am always blown away at the level of care and attention they put in to their students. My son&#39;s confidence is a prime example of that. He went from not speaking to anyone to knowing and speaking to just about everyone. Also, I don&#39;t always speak Spanish with my kids at home, and without having a lot of family around, it means a lot that they continue to learn the language and heritage while at school. What a blessing to have this type of school in the community!

My experience at OMBA has left me heart broken and hurt. I was dismayed by the treatment I received and had hoped my children would end the year with a positive .note, instead it ended abruptly. It has left us with a bitter feeling for me and my children.<br>I am very disappointed I had a really bad experience In this school!!!
