Our Teachers
Explorer Studio Director Meryem Jordan started her educator’s journey in a bright, progressive French immersion preschool in San Francisco. There she was immersed in the Reggio Emilia methodology of child-led and child-centered experiential learning.
After relocating to Brooklyn, she became the founding teacher of a new French immersion elementary school, and was instrumental in its success and growth over her ten-year tenure. As the school grew, Meryem became the beloved director of its preschool, earning praise from families for her warm, nurturing teaching style and diligent attention to safety, as well as excellent communication and partnership with families.
At Explorer Studio, Meryem is an integral part of shaping the program, assembling and training our wonderful faculty, and yes, teaching the children.
About our program
Explorer Studio teachers use the target language to interact and communicate with children and each other 100 percent of the time (except for critical safety instructions, to comfort a distressed child, and to support beginning learners).
Our preschool immersion model helps children achieve fluency in the target language in a nurturing and supportive environment. Our approach ensures that regardless of prior exposure to the language, children begin immediately to use important everyday vocabulary and structures. They quickly gain the tools to communicate comfortably, and learning is reinforced through music, role-playing, games, meaningful play, storytelling, and conversation.
