I'm a teacher, linguist and facilitator with a passion for languages and fossils! I've been teaching Spanish as a foreign language for over twenty years. I'm a mum of bilingual children and I want to share my adventure with other families. Cuchipanda is my small contribution with a course I specially designed for the youngest learners.

​

Cuchipanda is a new method for learning Spanish written, illustrated and adapted by me. CUCHIPANDA is aimed at children (3-7) whose native language is not Spanish. Using the communicative method, children will be immersed in Cuchipanda's world singing and acting out stories in Spanish that highlight diversity, inclusion and respect.

Hi, I'm Kev! 

 

I'm an experienced tutor and youth worker with close to 10 years of experience. I think learning should be fun, interactive and memorable while embedding key elements of the Scottish Curriculum along the way! Having a background in psychology, my research was focused on the effects of self-perception and motivation on long-term academic achievement. Through the use of project-based learning practices my main goal is to facilitate young people in finding the methods that work for them while building their confidence at every step. 

 

What can you expect from a Kev's Class Workshop?

 

Each workshop is planned with both learning and fun in mind. Guided by the curriculum and my experience on what learners find the most difficult to grasp, I combine an engaging activity alongside a partner worksheet. The mix of independent and group activities in each session helps learning to be targeted to every individual while still being part of the group as a whole. 

 

You'll notice that I pair everyday situations with learning outcomes to instil the idea that what we learn has a use throughout our lives.

What is Capoeira?

Is it a game, dance or maybe fight? The answer is as interesting as Capoeira itself, because it is an activity that contains all these elements, and their proportions depend in a large extent on what we ourselves are looking for in this art and on our character and temperament. An experienced trainer will develop the skills of the participants in each of these aspects, with particular emphasis on the natural predispositions of the participant. That is especially taken place at our kids’ classes to make the class as open, interactive and interesting for everyone as possible.

This culture from Brazil attracts people not only with its sport aspect, but also with the culture of Brazil, the language, music and traditions of this colourful country.
