About Me
italki teacher since Sep 4, 2017
I am a professional English teacher :-) ! I like teaching English and meeting new people :-) ! I like travelling, too :-) ! And reading books...Louise Hay, Joe Dispensa, Robin Sharma and Jay Shetty are some of my favorite authors !
I can help you improve your fluency and pronunciation and develop your ideas into a logical and natural-sounding phrasing.
Me as a Teacher
I have been improving my teaching methods through years by attending seminars in different fields and trying to find the easiest possible way to help my students learn a foreign language effectively.I like being a teacher because at the same time I teach my students and learn from them as well. There is nothing more valuable for me than seeing a happy smile on the student's face after having some difficulties while learning a language and finally managing to overcome them.
My lessons & teaching style
I use interactive materials during the lessons. I will always try to adjust the lessons to your needs. My lessons are fun and effective, you will enjoy them :-) !!!!

Maria was really good at finding out the right method to make me communicate in a relaxed way, I enjoyed her lesson and I think i am definitely going for other lessons.

Maria is great. She is friendly and easy to become comfortable with. She was able to remain patient with me through a long introduction. I look forward to the next session... I happily recommend her!
