I’ve tried quite a few teachers on italki, and Mary really stands out. She takes her teaching seriously and has a very good sense of what I need from the lessons. She always comes prepared, but the classes never feel rigid, she’s natural, spontaneous, and professional at the same time. She starts and finishes on time, adapts quickly when something needs a different approach, and you can really see her experience in the way she teaches. I appreciate that balance of preparation and flexibility. She’s an excellent English teacher, and I genuinely recommend her.
