About Us
Our Mission
Our mission is to advocate for a more inclusive, multilingual and multicultural community.
As certified educators, we teach language through animated storytelling, engaging music, visuals, movement, creative repetition, and authentic Spanish resources.
Our teaching is based in language acquisition research with a focus on building biliteracy, not just bilingualism.
What Do We Offer?
We provide a range of engaging Spanish Immersion programs for young children in Annapolis. Our offerings include:
🌟 Spanish Immersion Program for Preschoolers
Our part-time childcare program for ages 2–4, aligned with the AACPS school calendar (August–June). We’re open M-F from 8:30AM - 11:30AM with 2-, 3- & 5-day options available.
👶 Spanish Immersion Play & Learn Program
A caregiver-and-child program for ages 0–5, featuring Spanish Storytime + Immersion Playtime, offered Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings (September–June) from 10:00-11:30.
☀️ Spanish Immersion Summer Camp Program
A fun and immersive summer experience for children in early childhood through early elementary, running June through August 2026.
Why Choose Us?
At ¡Hola Amigos!, we offer more than just Spanish classes—we provide immersive language experiences designed specifically for young children and their families. Our Spanish Immersion Drop-Off Program gives little learners the consistency and structure they need to thrive, while our Play & Learn Program (with caregiver) offers meaningful connection through songs, stories, and guided play. Grounded in early childhood best practices, our programs use language-rich routines, engaging materials, and lots of movement and music to help children build confidence and develop Spanish naturally—one laugh, song, and story at a time.
More About
Us
At ¡Hola Amigos!, we offer engaging Spanish Immersion programs for children ages 0–8, including daytime, family options, and summer programing that support language development from the earliest years. Our approach is grounded in language acquisition research—including the Comprehensible Input theory—as well as early literacy practices aligned with the Science of Reading. Through play, storytelling, and hands-on learning, we create a nurturing, language-rich environment where children thrive. We also offer private Spanish tutoring for learners of all ages, from young beginners to adults building fluency.
