PIA SANTAMARÍA- LANGUAGE CLUBHOUSE TEACHER

My name is Pia Santamaría and I have been planning and developing learning materials for Language Clubhouse.  I was born in Espoo, Finland, but grew up in the city of Seinäjoki. I have always been interested in learning languages and I could say it is one of my passions. I have lived some years in Mexico and loved the process of learning a totally new culture. I studied Social Sciences in Seinäjoki University of Applied Sciences. During my studies I completed a specialization in early childhood education and criminology. I have worked for a few years in several kindergartens in Seinäjoki, Finland.  I have also worked with young learners in a children’s home in Helsinki, Finland and have experience with special needs children too.  I am patient and compassionate and create a positive and supporting learning environment for my students. I enjoy working with children and youngsters and I would love to be able to share my passions with children about languages and cultures and to help them learn more in a fun way. Finnish is my native language and I’m fluent in Spanish and in English. I also know the basics in Swedish and German.

GROW AND LEARN

A learning community-

Language learning develops in a safe and secure environment and the most important role in the development of language is played by safe interpersonal relationships with loved ones, in which the child can express himself or herself in a varied and free manner. Our clubs support the development of cognitive, language, gross motor, fine motor and social skills.  Social emotional development is crucial in early childhood that is why we pay attention to this area in our group classes. The children in the clubs get familiar with the other club members and the teacher and gain new relationships and friendships in a safe environment.  We strive to create a positive group spirit and the atmosphere is a warm and inviting one for all.  We also do close cooperation with the children’s families and support them in their children’s development.

Teachers give monthly reports to children and parents on their learning.  Parents can connect with teachers and email questions they have.  We answer our emails within 24 hours.  Also we provide webinars for parents every so often, and may hold live question and answer sessions.
