Choose the partnership that best fits your needs:

  • On-Campus Instruction

    Mariposas has been teaching on campuses in the Austin area for over twenty five years, so we know what is required for a successful Spanish program. All you need to provide is the space and we provide the curriculum, teachers, materials, and communication with families.

    On-campus classes can be customized to fit your school schedule: length, day, and frequency are all taken into consideration when establishing school partnerships. Spanish can be integrated into the school day (contract based) or can be offered as an extracurricular (registration based). Reach out to find a class that works for your school!

Why Choose Mariposas?

Spanish is easy, engaging, and fun with us! Mariposas Spanish School has been teaching children Spanish since 1999. Our unique curriculum has shown that children learn a new language best when they’re engaged by their maestra (teacher) in a variety of ways. Music, art, science, literature, and the Total Physical Response (TPR) method make up the fabric of our Montessori-based curriculum. Students are not only acquiring Spanish language skills but are learning about other cultures and are gaining an understanding of other people.

By the end of a Mariposas sessison, students should be able to show off their skills in basic vocabulary, simple phrases, Mariposas songs, days of the week, colors, numbers, and the alphabet. We’re proud, not only to teach children Spanish but to be educating the next generation of global citizens.

  • Our Maestras are High-Quality Instructors

    Mariposas instructors go through a rigorous training curriculum when they join our team and are required to take continuing education each year. Our staff goes through background checks and are CPR/First Aid certified. We are 100% vaccinated too!

  • Custom Created Curriculum

    Mariposas’ curriculum is one of a kind. It has been lovingly crafted and fine-tuned over many years of research, trials, and success. We are proud to have pioneered an innovative approach to language learning with Montessori Method, Total Physical Response, the 7 Intelligences, and sign language. All lessons and materials are custom designed in-house.

  • Online Registration & Invoicing

    It's important to make the administrative tasks simple for you! For schools that use our program as an extracurricular activity, promoting online enrollment is easy with our materials. Once students are in the program we handle all tuition communication with parents. Classes integrated into the school day will be invoiced for at the end of the month.
