Viviana: Western Springs tutor

Certified Tutor

In my 15+ years of teaching experience with students PK-12, I have had many opportunities to help future generations learn from the many subjects I have taught. I ensured all students felt secure, comfortable, and confident in diving into new, familiar material and content.

I am passionate about helping students because I enjoy assisting others in achieving their academic and personal goals. I am grateful I can help my students be better people and learners and make the world the best place possible.

I received my Bachelor of Science from the University of Central Florida. I majored in Art Education and double minored in Psychology and French. I currently tutor AP Studio Art: 2-D Design, AP Studio Art: Drawing, Art, Science, Elementary School Writing, English, Math, PRAXIS Art, Reading, Science, TEFL, TESOL, Visual Arts, and Writing. My tutoring style aims to make students feel comfortable self-navigating and letting me lead them with new information. Before we can learn anything, structure must be used to organize the content to be more digestible for the student to receive and be prepared to learn. All lessons are custom-made, for each student has different, unique, and individual traits and needs in their sessions with me.

My favorite subjects to tutor are art history, painting, Spanish, English, and French because these are the subjects I have the most knowledge and experience in. I am confident in all the subjects I teach, but the ones above help me be more creative and flexible due to the freedom to be subjective in how the content can be taught. There can be many ways to learn and interpret all the information learned in these topics, even foreign languages.
