A Bit About Me & My Background

Alex

Teacher 

‘‘Hi, I'm Alex, the teacher at Little Picassos, this exciting new language and arts club for kids! 

​

We started in the summer of 2025, and it was an epic first workshop full of fun! 

 

We're excited to start up again in the New Year and welcome the next group of Little Picassos to come and learn some Spanish and get crafty!''

A Bit About Me & My Background

My love for languages really started when I was 18 and moved to Spain to become an au pair. I lived with a family of three children and spent every day teaching them English. It was during this time, I discovered my passion for everything Spanish! So, I returned to the UK and did my degree in Spanish, Italian and teaching. I fell in love with the country, so much that I found myself living there again for a year after graduating. 

​

I’ve been teaching languages for over 10 years.  I work full-time as a private language tutor and teach both English and Spanish. I've worked with students of all ages and levels - from toddlers to adults, beginner to highly proficient, for casual, academic and business purposes. I'm fully certified in Paediatric First Aid and hold a fully Enhanced DBS certificate. 

How Little Picassos Came About

​Aside from languages, another passion of mine is art! I know that traditional language learning methods can sometimes feel a bit slow, outdated and boring - especially for kids. So, I really wanted to find a way to make it as exciting and crafty as possible for my students - that’s how Little Picassos was born.

​

My mission is simple: I want kids to fall in love with languages while having fun, making friends, and creating happy memories. I want Little Picassos to be that special club outside of school where children can explore, learn, and express themselves, while parents get a few hours to themselves, knowing their kids are in a safe, creative, and educational space.

​

For me, nothing is better than seeing a child’s imagination light up, whether they’re painting a box, putting together their first Spanish phrases, or proudly showing you what they’ve made at the end of the day. That’s what Little Picassos is all about, and I can’t wait to welcome your little ones to one of our sessions.
