About The CatVana Team

Our Philosophy

We are a forward-thinking learning hub for ages 3 to 103, set in the heart of our beautiful village of Sant Pere de Ribes.

We are at the heart of the community offering a space where you can learn, relax, explore and grow whilst being immersed in English. We are fully qualified British Teachers with a wealth of knowledge and experience, who have worked in many different places and with many different people.

At CatVana Learning Centre every child and adult can find their favourite way to learn and grow in knowledge, understanding and confidence. Whether you are looking for discrete lessons, language exchange, to learn through games, homework help or would simply like to enjoy our English Library, our doors are open to you.

Meet Cat

As a co-founder of CatVana Learning Centre and a passionate educator, I'm committed to making learning a delightful adventure. I believe in tailoring education to each student's individual needs, ditching the traditional textbook approach in favor of fun, interactive experiences.

“If a child finds the way we teach difficult, we should change the way we teach!”

Meet Ivana

With over 15 years of experience as a qualified British Teacher, I believe that every child deserves a nurturing and supportive learning environment. Each child is unique, and my approach is to create personalized learning experiences that foster curiosity, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.

“CatVana is our baby, born from our belief in creating a space where children can truly thrive. We wanted a place where they feel safe, supported in their growth and development, and provided with the care and environment they need to feel confident, loved, and free to be themselves. ”
