Learning a language can be frustrating. Especially if you feel like you’re not making progress. That’s why I make my lessons fun, interesting, and logical. I structure my lessons in a way that helps you build upon the vocabulary and grammar that you already know. I also provide resources and written transcripts to help you review. That way, you can look back and see your progress. I use scientifically proven study methods, such as spaced repetition and active recall to make our time together efficient and effective.

Marco Academic EP
Cambridge C2 Proficiency, grade A & Cambridge TKT, Band 4, top grades.Postgrad Diploma in Psychology 40 years blending principles and techniques to produce exceptional results. In 1984 I started teaching English privately. Early in my career I was trained in the audiolingual method, and afterwards in the direct method at Berlitz. I also studied French, German and Italian using different methods. Later, I was trained in the Communicative Approach. All methods have strong points and weaknesses. Some techniques work better in a group and need to be adapted for individual lessons. Over the decades, over thousands of lessons and with inspiration of ideas from psychology and applied linguistics, I have learned to blend different principles and techniques to produce exceptional results .
