Over Fifty Years of Inspiration

Our Story, Your Journey

Photos 1959 To 1960 Jerry And Barbara With Daughter Elisa2

Rooted in a Journey of Discovery – Over fifty years ago, our founders, Barbara and Gerald Guidera, embarked on a road trip adventure to Mexico with their baby and a 1951 Ford. What began as a humble sojourn sparked by curiosity and genuine human connections, blossomed into SSA – a testament to their belief in the transformative power of cross-cultural education. 

From that serendipitous stop in a town fragrant with lilies, to empowering hundreds of students across Spain, Argentina, Cuba, and Puerto Rico today; we hold true to our family tradition of nurturing global citizens. Delve into our story and see how personal care is at the heart of every student’s journey with SSA.
