Inspiring Confidence Through Language – Not Competition

At Mariposa Languages, we believe every child can achieve fluency in a second language — and it starts with confidence.

That’s why our classes reward bravery, not perfection. We celebrate children who take the leap to speak out loud, try new words, and express themselves — even if they make mistakes. It’s about building the spark, not chasing grades.

Our Spanish Clubs are filled with joy and discovery: games, role plays, stickers, songs, and exciting hands-on activities that bring the language to life. We don’t just teach — we create a space where children feel free, happy, and inspired to speak.

Who Are Our Classes For?

We teach Spanish (and some French) to children of all ages:

Spanish for Nursery & Reception – Early Years Language Learning

Music, movement & play for early Spanish exposure

Spanish for little learners through music, movement & play
We support nurseries and preschools with 1-hour Spanish workshops full of songs, rhythm, dance, and games. Children absorb sounds naturally at this stage, making it the perfect age to start exploring a second language. Early exposure helps with listening skills, memory, and confidence — and most importantly, it’s fun!

After-School Spanish Clubs for Primary Schools

Fun, curriculum-aligned Spanish lessons in Hampshire & Sussex

After-school Spanish clubs & curriculum support
Our interactive Spanish clubs are designed to follow the national curriculum but with a fresh, child-friendly twist. Every year we bring a new structure with games, music, role play, crafts, and movement, so children stay excited and engaged. It’s the best way to start learning Spanish at primary school — through fun, consistency, and creativity.

GCSE Spanish Support & Private Tutoring

One-to-one Spanish lessons tailored for exam success

Spanish tuition tailored to your child’s needs
From GCSE Spanish students to small private groups, we offer personalised lessons that target specific goals — whether it’s exam preparation, grammar support, or simply improving spoken confidence. Our native-speaking tutors adapt the pace and content to each learner, making sure every student feels supported.

All ages welcome – Whether your child is a total beginner or bilingual at home, we support their journey

Spanish Classes for Beginners & Bilingual Children

Spanish lessons designed for every learner’s journey

Spanish for beginners, bilinguals, and beyond

Spanish Classes for Adults – Learn at Any Age

Private Spanish lessons & conversation practice for adults

Leo’s Story

“One hour a week changed the way he sees his future.”

Meet Leo, a 10-year-old boy who joined his  first Mariposa Spanish Club in Year 2. From the very beginning, his enthusiasm was clear — he was a natural!

Recognising his growing love for Spanish, his parents decided to support him further with private tutoring through Mariposa. Over nearly two years, Leo’s confidence has grown enormously. Today, he’s writing in Spanish with ease and dreaming big.

Leo’s plan? To travel to South America during his gap year, improve his Spanish even further,
and use it in his career one day. All of this started with a spark in his primary school classroom — one hour a week that changed his view of the world.

    We saw his potential. Now he sees it too

Thanks for everything - Leo has learned so much and will always remember his lessons with you. Muchas gracias for inspiring him! - Liz
