About Me

italki teacher since Feb 28, 2019

Growing up in a very diverse country cultivated a love for cultures and different languages and this passion to interact with and learn from other cultures inspired me to become a language teacher. My curiosity about the world around me made me an eager traveller and explorer. I've travelled to many countries on my own continent and in Asia, living out my explorative, adventurous genes while connecting with as many people and humanitarian organisations as possible. Community development, empowerment and healthcare improvement are issues close to my heart and things I pursue whenever I am given the chance. Teaching language is an extension of doing what I love, helping people excel.

Me as a Teacher

I worked at a multicultural language school and taught many different nationalities from a beginners level up until advanced and have experience in teaching both group and private classes. In addition to this I've taught private classes in various subjects like mathematics, science, biology and languages to secondary school students for the past three years. I am fascinated with learning on a neurological level and always try to take into account different learning styles when I teach, trying to deconstruct a problem when a student is stuck in his/her learning curve.

My lessons & teaching style

I have an informal, conversational teaching style. My lessons will be structured around your needs so please feel free to communicate with me beforehand if you have specific expectations. I teach from a beginners level up until advanced, but to access your level I will send you a quick quiz before our lesson, which shouldn't take more than 10 min to complete. Please note that this is only to make sure you get the most out of our lesson. At the moment I offer conversational lessons about a text/ video that I will send to you beforehand. This will soon be supplemented with specific grammer and vocabulary lessons so please watch this space!

The conversation with Maryna was wide ranging and interesting under many perspectives. We touched on many topics and the lesson was so interesting that I went well over my comfort zone and forgot the usual fear to make mistakes. It should also be highlighted her patience and kindness.Well done!

The trial lesson was great, Maryna prepared great article and exercises about terms and phrases. She understood and could explain in the simplest way the English grammar.
