Welcome to Brooklyn Global Prep

We have an integrated curriculum that seamlessly weaves together the acquisition of social, emotional, and academic skills, learning of co-constructed content, and building of community in dual languages.

We provide a variety of innovative, language immersion school experiences for our youngest learners. Brooklyn Global Prep is a unique, Reggio-inspired Language Immersion Preschool in the beautiful Oosten building located in the Williamsburg waterfront district, just one subway stop from Manhattan, seconds from the East River Ferry and right at the base of the Williamsburg Bridge. We provide a variety of innovative, language immersion school experiences for our youngest learners. Children spend their day immersed in rich vocabulary in Mandarin Chinese or French. While our academic curriculum is presented by loving native speaking teachers, in an interactive and engaging way.

Our Space

Designed for children between the ages of birth and 7 years old the school is located in the beautiful Oosteen building on the waterfront at the base of the Williamsburg Bridge. Our learning landscape encourages freedom, creativity and socialization by emphasizing transparent and communal spaces, free flowing classrooms, flexible community space, art studios, music throughout, an indoor garden & playground. This environment better supports the energy of creativity and belonging. Our space encourages children to experience and grow from the environment around them.

Our Classrooms

A peaceful environment lies at the core of our classrooms. They provide our children with plenty of opportunities for hands on learning, creative play, imagination and socializing. Activities such as art studio, imaginative play, language and yoga not only build concentration and focus, they’re fun too.

Our Approach

By giving children the freedom to exist in a cooperative environment they learn how to respect each other, as well as how to work both alone and collectively. Serving children ages 6 weeks to 2nd grade.

The six pillars

Brooklyn Global Prep goes far beyond exploring academic subjects. The Six Pillars of Character are an integrated part of not only our curriculum but our environment and ultimately the heartbeat of our school. The Six Pillars include the universal values of Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship. These values are instilled throughout every aspect of our program from our youngest to our oldest learners.

Our Curriculum

Our unique progressive program was created for Brooklyn families who value an education that meets, supports and challenges students where they are, allowing them to grow in self-awareness, empowered to achieve and express their full potential in a bilingual environment.

Brooklyn Global Prep is an overall outstanding learning environment for children. Our son is in the French Waddler class, and we have found his teachers to be caring and attentive, the classrooms and facilities to be beautiful and conducive to learning/exploring/creating, and the school community to be wonderful to be a part of. I have found that everyone goes above and beyond for the care of our children, and that school policies are clear and reasonable. Highly recommend!

My son started at Brooklyn Global Prep at 9 months old in the infant classroom where he has been exposed to French and Mandarin daily. It has been a very positive experience for our son and for my husband and I. I love the language immersion as well as ratio of the classrooms. Our son has made strives in his independence and achieving milestones. I am very happy with the care and our choice in choosing Brooklyn Global Prep.

We are so happy BGP came to the neighborhood! We started with Saturday classes for our 3 year old and quickly fell in love with the teachers, director and the space. Our infant just started in the baby room in November and we couldn't be happier! The school is so bright, clean and welcoming. We highly recommend them! Thanks BGP for loving our babies while we are at work. The Sigala family!

My son Benjamin goes to BGP's Mandarin class on Saturdays and he absolutely loves it! The environment is well-designed and beautiful. The teachers there are very caring and the classes are fun and creative. We appreciate how they encourage kids to explore different tools and toys there. Astara is very helpful and we are telling all of our friends about this magic place.

Honestly, my husband and I didn’t know what to expect because we have only had experience with in-home preschool settings. We were more than impressed with every classroom and the teachers were so friendly. The director Ms. Astara gave us a tour and answered all of our questions. We can't wait for the school to open so we can send our girls there!

My daughter went to Brooklyn Global Prep for the weekend activities and had the most amazing time! The classrooms are magical! I am so happy I have found a space like this for my daughter to learn (without even realizing she’s learning). She has talked about this school everyday and cannot wait to return. I travel from New Jersey for her to be apart of the weekend classes and love that she gets exposure to other languages and cultures such as French and Mandarin. I truly wish I could relocate to Brooklyn to enroll her in this school because I cannot imagine a better place for my daughter to spend her days. The classrooms are clean and filled with the most unique, state of the art equipment. The Director and staff members are all wonderful people who are genuinely there to provide the students with a quality education that is engaging and fun! If you live in Brooklyn this is the school you want your child to attend!
