Our Services
At Language Leap Consulting, we provide customized consulting and educational support for Mandarin Immersion and Dual Language programs. Our services are designed to help schools, educators, students, and families succeed in building vibrant, high-quality bilingual learning environments.
Curriculum Development & Design
At Language Leap Consulting, we design customized Mandarin immersion curriculum that supports both language development and academic achievement. Our curriculum aligns with Common Core, ACTFL, and NGSS standards, ensuring students receive a well-rounded education while building proficiency in Mandarin.
We believe effective Mandarin immersion is more than direct translation — it’s about creating meaningful, content-rich learning experiences that connect language, culture, and subject knowledge. Our approach integrates best practices from American education, including AVID strategies, GLAD strategies, GATE differentiation, EduProtocols, and Bloom’s Taxonomy. These frameworks allow us to create curriculum that fosters critical thinking, creativity, and student engagement.
Every resource we develop is thoughtfully crafted to meet the needs of your students, teachers, and program goals. From unit planning and lesson design to differentiated learning activities and language scaffolds, we provide schools with the tools to create immersive classrooms where students thrive. We also offer bilingual parent communication resources to help bridge school and home, ensuring families stay connected to their child’s learning journey.
Teacher Training & Professional Development
We offer hands-on professional development designed to empower teachers with the tools, strategies, and confidence to lead successful Mandarin immersion classrooms. Our training goes beyond theory — we provide practical, classroom-ready strategies that support language acquisition, student engagement, and culturally responsive teaching.
Through customized workshops, coaching sessions, and modeling, we guide educators in building lessons that balance academic rigor with language development. We train teachers to incorporate AVID strategies for organization and student agency, GLAD strategies for language scaffolding, GATE strategies for differentiation, and EduProtocols for maximizing student participation. Our professional development focuses on helping teachers create student-centered learning environments where students take ownership of their language learning and academic growth.
Family and Community Engagement
We believe that family engagement is essential to student success in Mandarin immersion programs. Language Leap Consulting offers parent workshops, family education sessions, and bilingual resources that help caregivers understand how to support their child’s language learning at home.
We also provide guidance to schools on planning cultural celebrations, parent engagement events, and community-building activities that honor language diversity and strengthen school-family partnerships. Our goal is to help families feel connected, informed, and empowered as active participants in their child’s bilingual journey.
RTI (Response to Intervention) for Language Learners
We provide customized RTI solutions to support Mandarin immersion students who need additional academic or language help. Our intervention strategies focus on meeting students where they are — providing differentiated instruction, small group support, and language development tools that help struggling learners build confidence and make progress.
Whether supporting students with literacy development, content comprehension, or language-specific challenges, we design intervention plans that align with your school’s goals and immersion model. Our RTI services ensure that every student has access to the resources and support they need to thrive.
Mandarin AP Exam Preparation
Our Mandarin AP Exam preparation program is designed to help high school students succeed on the AP Chinese Language and Culture Exam. We provide writing workshops, exam strategies, practice assessments, and skill-building activities that focus on real-world language use and cultural competence.
Our approach emphasizes authentic communication, advanced literacy development, and test-taking strategies that prepare students not only for the AP exam but for continued success in academic and professional settings where Mandarin is used.
Tutoring & Student Support Services
In addition to school-based consulting, Language Leap Consulting provides individualized tutoring and student support services for Mandarin immersion learners. We offer one-on-one or small group tutoring sessions designed to build language proficiency, academic confidence, and content knowledge.
Our tutoring services support students in developing listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in Mandarin. We also provide homework help, content-specific support for subjects taught in Mandarin (such as Math or Science), and intervention services for students who are new to immersion programs or need extra academic support.
Additional Services
Additional consulting services are available upon request, including program audits, Mandarin immersion program start-up guidance, parent communication resources, and customized resource development for schools or districts.
