Aleksandra Padua has thoroughly enjoyed sharing her lifelong love of art with the students at Providence Tutorials. She was born and raised in Poland, where she studied English Philology. Almost thirty years ago, she came to the USA and since, has received her American citizenship. She homeschooled her two kids for thirteen years and graduated the younger one in 2018. While homeschooling, she has been able to spend more time on her artistic pursuits, and, for the last six years, has been teaching art to elementary, middle school, and high school students. Aleksandra Padua lives in the Triangle area with her husband Tony, two grown kids, and a dog. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, studying grammar and foreign languages, but above all, engaging in creativity through drawing, painting, and photography.
