Testimonials

Our kids truly enjoy going to Chinese school at West Valley Chinese Academy. I understand that young kids can often be difficult to wrangle in a classroom setting, so I appreciate the effort and hard work put in by the teachers in the "Mommy and Me" class.

Natasha S., Los Angeles, CA

The small class sizes that West Valley Chinese Academy offers have been perfect for our son, and he has gained skills in both speaking and writing Chinese. The cultural experiences and events at the school have also been a nice bonus.

The administration and teaching staff at WVCA are wonderful. I have an excellent teacher who is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, helpful, understanding and passionate about teaching her native language.

Ryan P., Tarzana, CA

West Valley Chinese Academy is truly the best Chinese language school in LA. The teachers are very attentive to the students and both of my kids have been students at this school for over three years now. I am very happy with their progress.

The staff, students, and parents are all very friendly at WVCA. The great ambiance makes having to study on Sundays tolerable and even enjoyable!

Chunyi D., West Hills, CA

Overall, I think this is a good school because they teach a mixture and hybrid of Chinese language and culture to Chinese American as well as American children.
