Vash&Co offers lively educational and motivating after-school programmes for children. Our sessions are packed full of interesting topics, creative projects and inspiring ideas that contribute to the social and emotional wellbeing of a child.

Vash&Co was created by Polina Vashchenko who brings her love for the arts and education into her innovative, stimulating and fun after-school programmes.
Hello from Polina!
My name is Polina Vashchenko hence the name Vash&Co. I am very loving, curious and a fun person to be around. I am passionate about life and learning. Thus, I have been working in the educational sector for over ten years. I have taught a wide range of subjects at after school clubs, pre-schools and have been a private tutor in London.
I have a BA in Communications with Minor Sociology and Diploma in Montessori Pedagogy Birth to Seven years. I believe in personal and professional growth. Therefore, I am currently furthering my qualifications and doing a Masters Degree in Art Education. Thus, I can keep up with the ever-changing world of pedagogy and keep the standards of teaching high because I believe every child has a right to receive quality education.
As an educator I am humbled to be given opportunities to be a part of every child’s learning journey. I believe that the knowledge about the world is constructed in unity of different experiences, cultures and generations. Thus, I believe in a diverse classroom where everyone's experiences and thoughts are valued. I learn from my students as much as they learn from me and we create a positive, rich and safe learning environment together where people are free to be themselves.
Lots of love,
Polina xxx
