🌟What is the Spanish with Littles Way? 🌟

📚 Early Language Exposure – We take advantage of the critical window for second language acquisition before age six, maximizing children’s natural ability to learn Spanish effortlessly.

🎯 Proven Teaching Strategies – Our approach includes research-backed methods such as Total Physical Response (TPR), Modeling, Scaffolding, Comprehensible Input, Reducing Incidental Language, and the use of Props to enhance learning.

🗣️ Supportive & Student-Centered Learning – We respect each child’s individual learning pace, allowing them to begin speaking when they’re ready while gently encouraging participation with multiple opportunities to engage in every class.

📝 Building Real-Life Language Skills – Rather than just introducing vocabulary, we prioritize real communication by encouraging sentence formation and modeling common sentence frames, helping students gain independence in speaking.

📚Profe Victoria 

A little about our founder, Profe Victoria and what brought her to start Spanish with Littles. 

Victoria grew up in a bilingual family- her dad was from Quebec and his first language was French. He never spoke French with her growing up though so she missed out on the opportunity to learn French.  Even more importantly, she missed out on having a close relationship with her grandparents and many aunts and uncles because of the language barrier. Fast forward, and she was homeschooled but second language classes were not available. she was very interested in other languages and pretended to speak them all the time from a very young age. When she started public school in rural Vermont there was still no opportunity to learn a language. It wasn't until she was 17 that she finally was able to start learning Spanish and fell in love with it immediately. Even since that first Spanish class she has sought to learn more and more Spanish and finds so much joy in helping others learn too! 

Profe Victoria, has been teaching since 2015. Victoria has a degree in Spanish with a minor in ESL. She worked as an ESL instructor at a community college from 2018-2019 and has taught language students online since 2018. She has been teaching on Outschool since 2021 providing Spanish lessons for ages 3-9. She also has experience coaching adults, which set her up for success as a leader at Spanish with Littles. Outschool families like yours have been learning Spanish with Profe Victoria for the last three years and their children love the energetic classroom environment she has created!
