Certified TEFL teacher with an academic background Growing up in a very diverse country cultivated a love for cultures and different languages. A passion to interact with and learn from other cultures inspired me to become a language teacher.

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!

Some delays, but adequate. Probably the tutor was not aware of the student presence on time.

Maryna is an excellent teacher. She was able to quickly identify my needs and structure the lessons accordingly. It was challenging materials in terms of new words, but easy topics that I could easily relate to - a great way to learn new language.
