Philosophy

Experience Español’s philosophy is based on a belief that children discover and deepen their passions through exposure to different ideas, perspectives and activities. It is important for children to spend time in nature, develop projects that align with their interests, and have opportunities to give back to their community. We also believe that an immersive environment that promotes the use of Spanish in all language skills (speaking, listening, reading and writing) is best especially for young children’s language and cultural acquisition. We highly value literacy development in Spanish as a means of uplifting the perception of the Spanish language as not only an oral but also an academic and prestigious language with many benefits. We also believe that foundational to students’ development is guidance in their socio-emotional learning. Children will be guided to work on problem-solving and listening skills to promote prosocial, community-building behaviors.

Founder and Educator

Ariel Schindewolf Miles

I hold a PhD in Hispanic Linguistics and have taught all levels of Spanish classes at the university level for over 15 years. I have been a mom for 6 years and have completed multiple early education and parenting courses. I am inspired by Reggio Emilia, Montessori and Forest School pedagogies that believe in a child-led approach to learning and teaching for young children. I believe experience is the best teacher!
