About us

A leader in bilingual education, The French American Academy offers students a private education in both French and English in New Jersey (USA). The positive, nurturing, and creative learning environment blends traditional and progressive approaches with newer teaching techniques in order to promote greater cognitive and social growth, multi-cultural understanding, individual confidence and self-expression. An early and continuing bilingual education has been proven to strengthen a child’s fundamental ability to listen, reason, focus, multi-task, and communicate better. It also helps children perform better in non-language courses, like Math and Science. Finally, it promotes cultural fluency which helps children adapt more easily in today's global community. The French American Academy serves students from Pre-K through 8th grade. The Academy also hosts after-school activities in French, enrichment classes, summer programs for children, and language classes for adults. The French American Academy has three campus locations: Englewood, Hoboken, and Jersey City, New Jersey.

  • Last week, our school welcomed Dr. Monica Neagoy, an accomplished author, international consultant, and a renowned keynote speaker on mathematics. Over the last three years, Dr. Monica Neagoy has been working with our school, offering training and guidance to our teachers on effectively incorporating Singapore Math into our curriculum. Additionally, we have integrated the Singapore Math textbooks, authored by Dr. Neagoy, into our classrooms. Her expertise has played a pivotal role in the seamless integration of the Singapore Math method into our bilingual educational program. We invite you to watch her interview, https://buff.ly/3UBR1bj . We are proud to be at the forefront of educational innovation, especially as the French government has recently announced its plans to gradually introduce the Singapore Math method into all primary schools across France. This decision aligns with the approach we have taken, and we are excited to witness the benefits of this innovative approach to mathematics education. If you're interested in learning about the implementation of Singapore math in France, we suggest you check out this blog, https://buff.ly/3wjE0sQ . Please note that the blog is in French.
