About Vidiana

I'm a native Spanish speaker with a strong academic and real-world background in language learning and teaching. I hold a bachelor's degree in Spanish Literature and Human Development from UC San Diego and a Master of Public Health from Harvard University, where I also served as a teaching assistant for graduate-level finance courses. I have several years of tutoring experience in Spanish, English, and math, and I specialize in helping students build confidence, fluency, and practical communication skills. My teaching style is structured yet conversational, and I tailor each session to individual goals--academic success, professional Spanish, travel preparation, or conversational fluency. I've studied abroad in Costa Rica, Cuba, Mexico, Spain, and Australia, allowing me to incorporate cultural context, regional differences, and real-life language use. I work with middle school, high school, college students, and adults, supporting both short- and long-term language goals.
