Learn English Through Art: Sessions for Kids to Play, Create & Build Confidence 🎨

From 76 C$ /h

**Art Classes for Kids in English 🎨**

Hello! I’m Emma, an art teacher with training in art therapy offering private, in-home creative sessions for children (ages 3+). My classes combine art, play, and English in a relaxed, pressure-free environment where kids can explore, create, and express themselves freely.

**What to expect**
Each 60-minute session includes:
• A short chat to connect and warm up in English.
• A creative process with art-making, games, and exploration.
• A closing moment to reflect and share about what we created.

Some sessions follow a fun theme (like building an underwater world and learning related vocabulary), while others are open-ended for free expression and play.

**My approach**
Guided by my background in art therapy, the sessions focus on:
• Building confidence and self-expression.
• Learning English through natural conversation and listening.
• Developing creativity, curiosity, and emotional awareness.

All materials are provided, kids just need their imagination!
Classes take place at your home and last 1 hour.

If you’d like your child to learn English through creativity, play, and exploration, I’d love to hear from you 🌸

About Me

I'm an English teacher and art therapist based in Barcelona. I work with children (ages 3+) through private, in-home art sessions where they can play, create, build confidence, and integrate English learning naturally.

I believe creativity is one of the best ways for children to learn a language. When kids are focused on making something (painting, building, experimenting), they absorb English without even realising it. It's learning without pressure, which is especially valuable for children who already spend so much of their day sitting, writing, and studying at school.

My sessions give children the freedom to experiment, make mistakes, and express themselves. Some sessions follow a theme, while others are completely open-ended. Either way, kids are practicing vocabulary, conversation, and listening skills in a relaxed, joyful environment.

With my training as an art therapist, I place a lot of emphasis on building trust and connection with each child. Once that relationship is established, children feel comfortable taking risks, trying new things, and really opening up creatively. These sessions are especially wonderful for children who find it hard to try new things, open up, or get messy. I create a safe, supportive space where there's no "wrong way" to create, just room to explore, grow, and build confidence at their own pace.

In a world where screens dominate so much of childhood, these sessions offer something different: a chance to slow down, use their hands, discover new materials, and feel proud of what they can make.

(I speak Spanish, so I'm happy to communicate with parents in either English or Spanish.)

Experiència de més de 20 anys donant classes d'anglès i català a grups reduïts d'ESO i Batxillerat i classes de repàs en el sector de les Humanitats.
Doy clases de inglés desde hace muchos años. He impartido a grupos reducidos y a particulares de repaso (ESO y Bachillerato). Me desplazo. Busco estabilidad y continuidad para todo el curso. Enseñar es mi vocación.

Por las mañanas trabajo en una empresa de telemárketing en BCN en un ambiente multicultural donde el inglés es nuestra lengua vehicular y a partir de las 16h tengo disponibilidad.

Actualmente soy profesor de inglés en la Academia English Studio, en Cornellà de Llobregat en turno de tardes. Todos los niveles y edades. Barajo la posibilidad de dedicarme a la docencia también en horario de mañana, siempre y cuando la oferta para este horario fuera de mi interés. En el turno de tarde soy autónomo. Busco estabilidad y continuidad en Academia o similar para todo el curso y en verano.

My name is Xavier.
I was born in Barcelona... a long time ago. I grow up in this town, but now I live a bit far from here. I studied at the University of Barcelona and in Huddersfield (near Shefield, Halifax, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool,...not very far from York: quite nice places and better people), and I've been teaching Catalan, Spanish, Phillsofy, History and English for a long time...since I was 16. What happened? Very short, I promise: I was walking down the street two years ago, from just opposite this private school, and I thought myself: well, you might enter this place and see. I like English language very much... and the UK,... but I don' t have a poster of the Queen on my bedroom's wall. It was a sort of a blind date. And there she was: her smile, her diligence, effectiveness. Eva listened to me. And after two weeks she was texting me for a class. Please, Xavier, can you cover for some classes? And here I am. English Studio, Academy of English in Barcelona, where I used to be a teacher until Covid 19 knocked at the door of our lives, and teachers and students had to be at home.

Professional Objective: English teacher.

Morning shift:

Professional experience
More than 15 years in several Contact Centers as an Agent or as a Team Leader or Supervisor. Companies: Teletech, Telefono Permanente, MST, Teleperformance and Promofon.

And last but not least, every day monitoring work, keeping an eye on the activity of premium learners, ensuring the team was taking the necessary proactive action, either by phone or email.
I had to support very often other colleagues in accordance with business needs and to share ideas to improve business practices and the quality of the service.

My style of teaching focuses on conversations based on everyday situations. I think that conversation, whether with beginners or with more advanced levels, is a very effective way of facing grammatical and pronunciation challenges. Each class is personalised to the needs and interests of the students.

Along with grammar and conversation classes, I prepare students for official Cambridge exams. These classes are focused on understanding the format of the exam, the requirements and tips for passing each section.

All my lessons are created to be 100% adapted to your specific needs.

I use the immersion method of teaching, which is an incredibly effective way to improve your level of English and fluency in the language.

One main focus of my lessons is conversational fluency, where we will focus on pronunciation and practice speaking.
From beginning to end, our classes will be filled with interesting conversations and activities, and we will only speak in English, about topics that you have chosen to discuss.

My students have described my lessons as interesting, inspirational and motivating; this makes learning and using the English language easier and more rewarding.

I am an experienced and certified mathematics tutor specializing in a range of curriculums, including AS and A-Levels, IGCSE, GCSE, SATs, Edexcel, and the International Baccalaureate (IB). With a proven track record of guiding students to success in these rigorous exams, I understand the unique challenges each curriculum presents. My approach is designed to meet each student's individual needs and learning style, ensuring that they receive the tailored support necessary to excel.

Mathematics can often seem daunting, but my goal is to help students build a deep understanding of mathematical concepts. I believe that a solid foundation in the basics is crucial, and I work to ensure that students grasp fundamental principles before moving on to more complex topics. This method not only boosts their confidence but also prepares them for advanced problem-solving scenarios. I utilize a variety of teaching methods, from visual aids to interactive exercises, to cater to different learning styles and make the subject more relatable.

In my sessions, I focus on developing effective problem-solving strategies. I guide students through step-by-step processes for tackling various types of mathematical problems, helping them to analyze questions critically and approach solutions systematically. This analytical skill is invaluable, not just for exams, but for future academic pursuits and real-world applications. I encourage students to ask questions and engage in discussions, as this fosters a deeper understanding of the material.

I also recognize that exam preparation involves more than just understanding the content; it requires familiarity with the exam format and types of questions they will encounter. I provide targeted practice using past papers and mock exams, which allows students to hone their test-taking skills and time management. This practice is essential for building the resilience and confidence needed to perform well under exam conditions.

Whether you're looking for support with fundamental concepts or advanced topics, I am here to provide clear explanations and structured guidance. My lessons are designed to be engaging and interactive, ensuring that students remain motivated and focused. I believe that learning should be a positive experience, and I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable expressing their concerns and challenges.

Throughout my tutoring career, I have seen firsthand the transformative impact of personalized education. Many of my students have achieved outstanding results, including high grades and scholarships, thanks to the tailored support I provide. I take immense pride in their accomplishments, and my dedication to their success is unwavering.

In addition to my expertise in mathematics, I emphasize the importance of a growth mindset. I encourage students to view challenges as opportunities for learning and growth. This perspective not only helps them in their studies but also equips them with resilience that will serve them well in all areas of life.

If you're looking for expert tutoring that delivers outstanding results, I invite you to book a lesson today. Together, we can embark on a journey toward academic excellence in mathematics. I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and unlock your full potential. Don't hesitate to reach out; I am here to support you every step of the way!

Ceramic is a natural and ancient material. Connect with the pleasure of clay modeling and shape utilitarian pieces such as bowls and vases, accessories or characters and countless decorative figures.
I am a professional illustrator with more than 15 years of experience and ceramics have captivated me. I tooked classes with the artist Lusesita (Laura Lasheras) and then continued self-taught.
We will go at your pace and you will walk your own path. Mud is for all ages and times. The frequency of classes is once a week, one hour, an hour and a half or two hours. If you need more frequent or intensive classes, please don't hesitate to ask.
I recommend the one-hour in-person class for the little ones, an hour and a half for when they grow up, and the two-hour class for adults, to go without rushing. If it is online, in both cases I recommend an hour or an hour and a half.

Hello!

Languages aren't easy to learn, especially in large groups, but with small classes, you can improve a lot in just a few months. As a teacher, I believe the most important thing is for students to have someone who can give them confidence so they don't get overwhelmed by the material at school.

-I can give review and reinforcement classes (primary, ESO and Baccalaureate) adapting to the needs and personality of each student.
- In the case of primary school children, I introduce games so that they associate English with good experiences, so they don't develop a dislike for it, etc.
- With teenagers, it's about connecting the content with their daily lives and interests, so they see its usefulness and it stops seeming like a waste of time.

This is my training and experience as a teacher:
-Two years as an English teacher in an academy (The Orange Tree, Valencia) for groups of children aged 5 to 16.
-One year of individual reinforcement classes for primary and secondary school children, adult groups and companies.
-I have a Master's degree in Teacher Training specializing in English, and I am familiar with the curriculum for primary, secondary and high school.
-I am a philologist and have a very high level of English (I have lived in Ireland for 4 years, I have worked in the USA and I have always worked in international environments).
-I am a patient and cheerful person who connects easily with children and teenagers.

Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.
See you soon!
