Maleta School

We are so lucky to have found Alicia. I cannot say enough positive things! She is a wonderful, caring and kind person that my children adore. They have learned so much Spanish with her and also to love the language. Alicia is a superb teacher with a great intuitive understanding of children . She immerses the children in the language and culture all while using the best teaching practices. Your kids will learn in an inspiring, creative and play focused environment and her selection of Spanish books is amazing. Highly recommended - you will not be disappointed!

At this school you will only find love and respect with greatest dignity for your child. The activities are well selected and prepared for children. My little one who started to attend the school since he is 2.5, looks forward every day to go to Learning Spanish school. On the weekends he asks if he could go to school!
I noticed big changes in my child’s behaviour, and he gained more confidence, patience, and fluidity to his movements.
At school, kids learn practical life, which means at home he wants to help you in the kitchen and clean the house.

I love the fact that the class is small and mixed age. We definitely picked up only good habits from this school.
It’s Spanish immersed program, which is an added bonus if you wish to raise a bilingual/ multilingual child. We don’t speak Spanish at home, and my little one sometimes would say words in Spanish if I have not taught him the word in English.

The school also offers music lessons and book readings which I highly recommend as well.

My 3 year old daughter attended summer camp last July and she absolutely loved it. Alicia is an incredible maestra! She really puts a lot of effort preparing each day with new activities, games, new materials, books, and most importantly understanding each kid’s needs. My daughter was such a happy camper, at pick up time she always had stories about new things she’d learned that day at Alicia’s school and how much fun she had with her new friends. We will be back next year!

My little boy did Spanish summer camp in 2021. And he absolutely loved it. He was a happy camper, every morning he would wake up with a smile on his face because he was going to see Alicia and his new friends, every time I picked him up he was telling me all about his day in spanish. He really enjoyed it. I really recommend it.

One of a kind daycare. The kids feel like home and learn while playing. The classroom and the backyard are great spaces with different areas so the little ones can explore and develop their interests. A caring, respectful and playful teacher makes it perfect for the kids to feel safe and happy. All in a Spanish speaker environment. My kid loved it and he is always enthusiastic about spend time with Alicia (the teacher) when we can join her in the rest of the activities that she offers now that he is not in preschool anymore.
