The Paza de Paula has a community of more than 80,000 teachers and families. Behind the board is Paula, a Valencian teacher with the firm conviction that it is possible to learn by playing. In their social networks, books and website share resources, ideas and learning tips for children. Today we have the opportunity to meet her a little more. I encourage you to read your interview and follow it in networks because you share very interesting content! 🙂
First of all, tell us a little about you.
What barbarity! An interview with me… (nor be Beyoncé's cousin) hehe
If I am sincere, I did not imagine that any of this arrived someday. Am Primary teacher, I graduated 2 years ago and I have always found a peculiar tad. I say this because I always liked it do things differently (And I think that is what has most caught attention to the people of me).
I do a little of everything (I'm not going to lie to you)… I started my 12 years doing gel nails, I went to create lipsticks, I continued riding my beauty company and now I am trying to dance salsa. A most common teacher! What yes?
To all this, I love exercising, traveling and enjoy life. What do you hear, I have my finishes to be released 23 years old… What not everything is working! And yes, I spent the day recording here, editing over there…
This year I continue with the preparation of oppositions… Although I also tell you… I don't know what will happen from here to date.
How was your personal brand, Paula's board?
Does the story of Jeff Bezos, the owner of Amazon, who launched his company from the garage of his house? Well, something like that happened to me.
One day, while exercising in a friend's garage (of course, I was mounted in the elliptical and bored me beautifully) I decided to make a logo in Canva and upload a teacher profile picture to social networks. Total, what could happen?
I have to say that La Paza de Paula He was inactive for a long time. I climbed almost anything and when it really began to take traffic it was last year that I said to myself: "Paula, stop doing fool on Tiktok and use it for something productive". And I did that.
What kind of contents do you share and who do you go?
At first I focused, above all, on professors. I lent them my funds and taught them to use the techniques that they worked so much so that my kids were motivated to learn. Why teach reading comprehension in a traditional way when you can wear colored sticks? Or, who would not have learned to add and subtract through a mystery of Egypt? Well, so I worked.
But then something happened that did not expect. Many parents contacted me so that you were oriented to teach their children with my innovative techniques from home. And that's when Paula's board took a 360 degree turn. I started teaching Learning tips for children with difficulties, I created books (we'll talk about that later), I rode the web And much more.
But, in general, many parents follow me, many teachers and many who are the two things.
In addition, you are the author of two books: Learn by playing y Ethical explorers. Tell us what we can find.
Of course, these books perfectly reflect the two times through which Paula's board has passed.
Initially, I created the book of Learn by playing For other teachers who would like teach through innovative techniques. In this book I speak of different Methodologies and ideas for each of the subjects taught in primary.
Ha! And how happy my dear grandmother was put when I told her I was going to publish my first book?
Learn by playing He had a lot of impact and in a short time he became one of the best selling in Amazon.
And then the second stage came. And from there he was born Epic explorers A book designed to teach study techniques To the kids between 8 and 12 years (who, my poor people, always tell me that of: "I do not be worth studying"). There is no thing that I hate in this world. Everyone can be the best in whatever they want, but they have to know that Not all of your heads learn the same.
After having investigated a lot about the forms of learning of our kids, this book came out. With study techniques for all, regardless of the way each one has to learn. In addition, to do it more in my way, more motivating, I raised it as a real adventure in which they had to look for objects as authentic explorers, investigate online… What is what an epic adventure is said of what they cool 🙂
You have a great community that follows you through your social networks, how do you live it?
I have not realized this until a couple of weeks ago. Let's see. My total community of people on social networks are 80,000 right now. I saw other influencers and said… "Paula, he doesn't know you even the neighbor in front." Until one day I went to dinner with my friends and stopped a girl of the most excited: «Are you Paula, right?». I thought: I have already taken the car, the crane. Well no. The girl followed me and told me how much my videos liked. That day I didn't sleep from illusion. Really. I excite myself with everything. For the rest, I carry it Guay. There are people who love you and people who hate you because they hate to the noise of the bell of their house.
Any new project you have in mind or dream that you would like to achieve?
Oh, Lord. Do you want to be the first to find out? Alright. In a couple of weeks "the Paza de Paula" store is launched. Although I still cannot reveal what you can find, I already anticipate that it is not a tent of keychains and bolis for teachers. I'm sure you will love it! It's so unique! (And done by me :-)).
Like other projects, several important companies have contacted me. Events, presentations, trips… These months will spend everything on Paula's board. If you want to gossip everything that happens… You know where you can find me.
It has been a pleasure to do this interview 🙂 A suuuper kiss!
