Welcome to Global Minds Preschool
Where Learning Foreign Languages is Child's Play
At Global Minds Preschool, from the moment your child enters until the end of the day, they will experience a language-rich environment where Spanish and Mandarin are seamlessly integrated into all subjects.
Building Bridges to a Multicultural World
Our comprehensive curriculum goes beyond mere language proficiency, integrating languages into subjects like math, science, art, and music. With our native-speaking educators leading the way, your child will not only achieve fluency but also gain cultural insights and a profound appreciation for both Spanish and Mandarin throughout their preschool experience.
Alongside this immersive language adventure, we prioritize nurturing essential social and emotional skills, ensuring your child’s success and meaningful connections throughout their life journey.
How Do We Teach?
Our teachers are all proficient at teaching preschool aged children in Mandarin or Spanish. With their ability to use body language, hand gestures, facial expressions, role play, and with their classroom materials as a tool box, our teachers are able to convey a second language to children effectively and effortless! Their ability to express various emotional messages vocally and visually allows the children to understand their intentions. By the time children graduate at Global Minds, children will have been introduced to the basic reading/writing and phonetics in Spanish and Mandarin (through pinyin). Each teacher has a passion for bilingualism and for the children that they teach!


Our Mission:
Our mission at Global Minds Preschool is to provide a transformative early learning experience that seamlessly integrates language acquisition and holistic development. We empower children with the fluency and cultural understanding of Spanish and Mandarin, nurturing their social and emotional growth, and preparing them for a lifetime of meaningful connections and success.
Our Vision:
Our vision is to be the cornerstone of a global community of polyglots, where children develop not only multilingual skills but also a profound appreciation for diverse cultures. We strive to become the premier language immersion institution, enriching young lives and fostering a generation of open-minded, globally aware individuals.

After only a few Chinese lessons our daughter is hooked and has given all of her dolls and stuffed animals Chinese names. It is amazing seeing how quick she has picked up the new sounds and how much she loves practicing her Chinese. We love Global Minds!

Our daughter attended summer camp at Global Minds having never been in a language immersion school before. She was in both Mandarin and Spanish classes and all the kids and staff were very welcoming to her. And patient with her, too, as she didn’t always know what the instructions were! She always came out at the end of the day with a smile and new knowledge. She brought home interesting and engaging projects. It was a great experience for our whole family. lydia wilson30/03/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Global Minds is the place to send your children to start them out on their journey to understand the global landscape. This is the place where you can find a caring group of teachers who are actively teaching your children two languages - Mandarin and Spanish. Additionally because of the scope of the school you find an amazing community of parents who share an equally great view of exposing their children to the wider world. Global Minds is an outstanding example of the great landscape of education evolving in the state of Arizona. Danyelle Huegerich29/08/2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Global Minds is such an amazing school and so unique to the North Scottsdale preschool landscape. My son started a year ago and always comes home with a smile, and continues to gain traction in both Spanish and Mandarin. Love the staff, location and facility. 10/10! Ryan Lanning10/08/2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After avoiding it for months my wife finally got me to go look at some preschools(even thou I think it’s a year premature). Out of the language immersion preschools I looked at Global Minds seemed to be the one that made the best impression. The staff all were professional and seemed to be native speakers of the languages they were teaching. The school had a good balance of kids learning and having fun doing so. I also liked the fact that the owners are so hands on. Erica Lau09/08/2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the best preschool! This is our 5th year at Global Minds. My son did Mandarin and Spanish for 3 years and my daughter is starting her third year doing only Spanish (her choice). My kids are always excited and happy to go to school. They love their teachers and the other kids. As for the language, my daughter comes home speaking Spanish words. She isn't speaking full sentences, but she's working on it. My son was able to understand most of what was spoken to him in Mandarin and was able to respond to teachers and peers in Mandarin! Since we don't speak a foreign language at home, this has been great! I can't say enough good things about this school. The admin and teachers are so loving and thoughtful. They truly care about your family. Adam and Chi have been lovely. Parents can get involved with weekly reading or cultural studies. The end of the semester singing recitals are always cute and fun. Personally, I have also made many friends through other parents at this school through drop-off/pick-up and birthday parties. As there are no officially arranged social events outside of school, this is the only real way to meet other parents. Since we were new to the area 5 years ago, this has been a huge help! I would recommend this school to anyone!!! Angela Pon31/07/2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so glad we found Global Minds! The staff are fantastic, supportive, and caring. My kids have grown so much in the time they've been at this school and are exceling in all areas, including speaking Spanish. The curriculum is wonderful, the kids enjoy going to school every day and love their teachers like they are family. We couldn't ask for a better experience starting out our kids' educational journey!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
