A programme made for your child

We start by finding your child's level, then plan the lessons around it. Games, songs, reading and writing in Spanish, with a twist of maths and geography.

  • A lesson plan sent to you before each class
  • Regular updates on how they are getting on
  • On their own or with a brother or sister
  • At your home, anywhere in London

Little hands, real food

This isn't a cooking class. Children explore flavours from Latin America with their hands, and pick up the Spanish words as they go.

Hola, I'm Tatiana

I'm from Bolivia and I've taught for 18 years, from nursery to university, and above all in primary schools.

So I know how children learn at every stage. I can find your child's level quickly, build on what they're learning at school and keep older kids motivated. From a toddler's first words to a 14-year-old reading and writing in Spanish, I'll know where to start and how far they can go.
