Verónica Viola

Lessons with Verónica are always the bright spot of my week :) There is always a lot of laughter and light talk, so you don't even feel like you're in a language class. However, I can definitely feel the progress every time I try to watch the next new Spanish series. The lessons are also my gateway to the culture, literature, and slang of Argentina, all of which I adore! Verónica encouraged me to consume more native content and classic stories, of which I was previously scared. And last but not least, she prepared me for my trip to Argentina and to speak with natives with ease I never believed I could reach. Thank you for being here, Verónica!

Come for the Spanish lessons but stay for the spiritual journey. Veronica has helped me gain competence in Spanish and for this I am forever grateful. Do not hesitate you have found a teacher among teachers. Cinco estrellas, siempre.

Absolutely laaaaaav Veronica. She’s amazing. My Spanish has improved so much over the last year and went from 0 to being able to hold conversations with my girlfriend’s parents.

SIMPLY THE BEST. That is the headline for Vero. After nearly two years and more than 100 lessons with her, I still end every session saying "wow." I have learned more from her than I could have learned in 10 years with another tutor. Vero is so creative and supportive. And her teaching methods are unequalled. If you have a chance to select a tutor, choose Vero. I feel a sense of serendipity that I did. I went from knowing nothing to having fluid conversations with Vero in less than two years. And each session gets better. I am lucky to have her as a teacher; and you will feel that same sense of fortune when you become her student. The day I signed up with Vero is one of the truly great decisions of my life.

Veronica is fantastic. Her years of experience as an educator and her knowledge of the fundamental processes that support all learning shine through in every lesson. She provides excellent feedback on core aspects of language development (e.g., vocabulary, grammar) appropriate to the learner's level, while still maintaining space for her student to practice using Spanish organically. She's great at selecting materials that are both relevant to the student's interests, and that provide opportunities to discover the cultural and historical influences that shape modern Spanish and its dialects. Veronica is goal-oriented and continuously looking for the next step in her student's learning. She sensitive to when it's appropriate to provide a challenge, or spend extra time on a topic so the student can absorb it at their own pace. She's genuinely skilled at navigating the "zone of proximal development" for her students, a rare quality that makes her easy to recommend!

Verónica continues to instruct at the highest level, not only in Spainish but with broad knowledge which makes conversation informative and productive. I feel that my conversational skills are improving with every class.
