Me as a Teacher
So far I have prepared students for Toefl, Toeic, Eiken, Ielts, Versant, ESOL, and more... I teach everything, from small talk to correct intonation to complex writing and academic writing. My students come from different fields from business to creative arts and academia.
My lessons & teaching style
The first step in my educational technique is to make student like the subject they are learning, I always try to discover their interests and then we go on to learning English trough that, Grammar is the base of everything so I approach that first, and the everything else is a buildup. I am kind and not strict, but I often give homework and additional tasks student can work on.

Marina is a qualified and professional teacher in TOEFL training. I could not image there is such improvement I could get during such short period without her expertise.
Thank you! Marina
