Viviana Vasquez, Valparaíso Resident Director
- WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT BEING A RESIDENT DIRECTOR?

- HOW DID YOU FIRST BECOME INTERESTED IN WORKING WITH U.S. COLLEGE STUDENTS?
- I went to the U.S. to teach Spanish and Chilean culture to college students with the intention of improving my English. I barely practiced the language because I was teaching Spanish and having conversations in classes all day. However, I had such a wonderful experience and such a great connection with the students that it was all worth it.
