Very knowledgeable, dedicated, enthusiastic and patient! Excellent volleyball coach 🙌🏽🙏🏽
What Viviana was able to do in a short amount of time was amazing. She simplifies all of the techniques so that we can learn them, repeat them, and soon apply them naturally to the game. We were left with take-aways like the basics of serving, passing, hitting, and footwork, to continue practicing on our own. We look forward to our next lesson on our next visit to San Diego. We are prepared to continue practicing what she taught us, as she left us with many practicing techniques and resources to follow. She’s a patient and very dedicated volleyball coach, with over 30 years of experience with the game and lots of coaching experience with different age groups and levels. Excellent!! 🙌🏽🙏🏽 🏐

The best tutor I've had to-date!
Martha Viviana Z. helped me more than any other Spanish tutor I've had in the first hour and a half lesson I had with her. I learned more with her in that first session than I've learned in months in the classroom. She gave me practical tips and study topics that were highly relevant and will accelerate my learning and fluency in Spanish. I plan to stay with her for the long haul throughout my high school years. Thank you!

Well organized and knowledgable!
I really enjoyed our first tutor session! She had a well planned lesson plan and powerpoint, and was very patient with me. She would be a great Spanish tutor for any level!

Great Teacher
My son, high school freshman, started taking Spanish lessons with Martha Viviana. He is taking Spanish 2 and needed help with school work and test preparation. He absolutely loves these lessons! Viviana always comes well prepared and has great tools to help my son learn the language. She is very patient and explains material very well, going back if needed and refreshing areas that are not clear or forgotten. She always leaves visual notes of the lesson and supplemental online material to review and listen to. Even after a couple of lessons my son feels more confident and understands more material. It was very easy to contact Viviana. She is highly responsible and accommodating. She is a great, enthusiastic teacher who wants to help her students and has expertise in the subject. I give Viviana excellent score.

Viviana is very energetic and fast paced. She comes prepared with lots of fun materials, songs and games, so my kids are excited about learning Spanish.

Very professional, knowledgable tutor
My daughter and I were both very impressed with Viviana's professionalism and wealth of teaching experience. She is encouraging, supportive and uses multiple methods to present the material so students can learn the way that suits them best. She provides helpful study techniques and resources. We feel very lucky to have found her!

5 Stars
Viviana is wonderful! She is smart, patient and diligent about making sure that my son understands what she is teaching him. She pays attention to all the details (like accent and how to achieve it), and she always has a plan for what my son needs to learn. She also uses all the resources that are available to her and her students to reinforce what she teaches. She is aware of all the websites that are helpful, and other media as well. She isn't just teaching my son to translate; she is teaching him to converse as well.

Outstanding Tutor
Mrs. Z was very helpful after just one lesson. She loves to teach and has a very easy going approach. She provides power points to go over when she is not teaching you a lesson, this helps you to retain what you have learned and practice. I have never taken Spanish classes before and I was struggling in my class. She has restored my confidence to learn Spanish. I am able to read and write Spanish more clearly in just two lessons.
