After Torrado died, Prat returned to education, working as a Catalan language teacher in Font de la Pólvora. [1]

She studied Teaching and Music, and she worked as a teacher in several educational centers. Her father and uncle were music teachers and encouraged her from a young age to cultivate the art of music.
