Welcome to LAFA, a community where language, culture, and creativity come alive!
What started as a small afterschool program has now blossomed into a dynamic network serving over 200 families each year across 3 campuses, including our brand-new Ninou Preschool and our valued partnership with Richland Avenue Elementary. Backed by a team of 15 passionate educators, we’re proud to offer immersive French programs for everyone — from toddlers to adults, from beginners to bilinguals.
At Los Angeles French Academy, we do more than teach French, we live it. We celebrate francophone culture through play, music, laughter, and friendship. Whether it’s a reading clinic, an improv night, or a themed summer camp, every experience is crafted to build language fluency through joy and connection.
In addition to our creative and play-based approach, we also support academic achievement. Our team proudly prepares students for official French exams, including the brevet and the baccalauréat, helping them build confidence and meet international standards.
Our mission is rooted in academic excellence, cultural immersion, and emotional connection. We combine the best of traditional education with the freedom of games, creativity, and personal expression. We believe bilingualism is a shared journey, one we’re honored to walk alongside each family.
Thank you for choosing LAFA. We can not wait to keep growing, dreaming, and learning together, en français, bien sûr!
Warmly,
Owner & Director
