Your search is over.
Hi there! Kumusta? I'm Victoria—the tutor you've been looking for. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Secondary Education, major in Filipino.
Back in college, I served as a language buddy to foreign students at our university, teaching them Filipino in a fun and simple way. Now, I’m a full-time Senior High School teacher, guiding Grade 11 and 12 students in both Filipino and English subjects.
I love reading books, creating art, and making films. I’m a creative person, passionate about all forms of art—whether it's literature, visual arts, or performing arts.
How about you? I’d love to get to know you in our session. Talk to you soon!Me as a Teacher
1. Understanding
I know that learning a new language can be challenging, so I always meet my students with patience and encouragement. I believe in learning at your own pace—mastering one lesson at a time before moving on.
2. Well-Prepared
Each session follows a thoughtfully designed curriculum tailored to your goals and needs. I come to every class ready with clear objectives, engaging materials, and a plan to help you progress with confidence.
3. Highly Engaging
I bring positive energy, creativity, and interaction to every lesson. Whether through fun discussions or dynamic presentations, I make sure each class is enjoyable, meaningful, and productive. My lessons & teaching style
For new students, I begin by assessing their knowledge of the Filipino language to determine whether they are beginners, intermediate, advanced, or proficient. This helps me tailor the lesson to match their level and ensure we’re starting from the right place.
Beyond just learning the rules and structure of the language, I believe full immersion in Filipino culture is essential. Language is deeply tied to culture, so my lessons will help you connect with both. We’ll have conversation-based classes that feel like talking to a friend, practicing Tagalog on topics that are easy to start a conversation with. This allows you to learn exactly how the language is spoken by its native speakers.My teaching material

Teaching experience
2024 - Current
Senior High School TeacherI am working as a full-time Senior High School teacher, handling both Filipino and English subjects. Trained to handle large classes of up to 50 students, I’ve mastered the art of creating meaningful learning experiences even in the busiest of rooms.
Beyond the classroom, I am also a School Paper Adviser, where I mentor aspiring student journalists — nurturing their voices, sharpening their writing, and inspiring them to make their mark in the world of media.
2023 - 2024
Student Teacher InternI was deployed as a student teacher in a public school for four months, from October 2023 to January 2024. During this time, I taught the Filipino subject to Grade 8 level to five sections with around 50 students in each section.
Education
2021 - 2024
Bachelor’s - Major in FilipinoI proudly graduated Magna Cum Laude, earning my Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in Filipino. Throughout my four-year journey, I immersed myself in the vibrant world of the Filipino language, literature, culture, and communication. I unraveled the rich tapestry of our national language—its growth, structure, and deep-rooted connection to the soul of Philippine identity. Through this journey, I honed my skills in writing, translation, linguistics, and teaching.

I have had the pleasure of working with Teacher Victoria for over 9 months. Around the start of my Tagalog journey, I happened to stumble upon her amazing intro video.
Right away I knew from the way she expressed herself through her energy, creativity, and passion for teaching Tagalog that it was an absolute must for me to see if she was a fit. After completing our first lesson, there was no question at all on who I wanted to invest my time and energy with.
Over the course of my time with Victoria, she has taught me so much about Tagalog and Filipino culture. Whether it be analyzing trendy songs, watching YT videos, listening to her podcasts, or just having fun light-hearted chats I have gained so much knowledge and insight that I cannot thank her enough for all she has given me.
Teacher Victoria I believe is one of the best teachers on italki and I highly recommend her if you would like to learn from someone who is so kind, supportive, dedicated, and an absolute joy to work with.

Vicky is honestly my favorite language teacher I’ve ever had 🧡 I can definitely feel how much effort she puts into our classes and she is very present while I share stories. I also appreciate how many examples she gives me for new grammar/vocab so that I fully understand. In the short amount of time I’ve been taking classes with Vicky, I’ve already noticed so much progress in my Tagalog! ✨

One thing that I very much appreciate about Victoria's lessons is that she really genuinely enjoys listening to the stories you want to tell. Every lesson of hers, you'll always have many opportunities to talk about something fun and interesting going on in your life. In every lesson of hers, I always walk away with a smile and of course learn something new about Tagalog and Filipino culture.

Another great lesson with Vicky! We had some casual conversation in Tagalog about what we did for Valentine's Day and about my toddler refusing to go to bed on time, ha, and then we went over some Tagalog sentences I'd written for homework. Maraming salamat!
