About Me
italki teacher since Jul 7, 2016Interest topicWritingMusicFilms & TV SeriesReadingTravel
Apart from teaching English, I am also an editor and published fantasy author. I spend my days teaching, writing, and editing.
I have a Bachelors with Honours in Fine Art, and have completed a Masters in Creative Writing. I have been writing fantasy and sci-fi for over a decade and more recently I blog about fantasy and editing.
When not at my desk proofreading and writing, I enjoy walks with my wife, Dungeons & Dragons, reading, and cooking Indian, Chinese, and Thai food.
I have lived in China and Poland and travelled widely, especially around Northern India. I love applying all I have experienced to my classes to help my students progress on their English journey.Me as a Teacher
I teach adults (18+) only. I aim to give you confidence with speaking, plenty of practice in class, and feedback on your grammar, spelling, punctuation, and pronunciation.
I am friendly relaxed and my classes are always fun. I love to share hints and tips about learning effectively and talk about topics that interest my students, using the knowledge gained from being a professional writer and editor.
I'm a CELTA certified and have been teaching since 2011. I 've lived and taught in both China and Poland and have met all kinds of people since I started teaching, picking up valuable experience and tips from students and other teachers along the way.My lessons & teaching style

I had a very good experience with Marek editing my speech. Marek not only taught me useful writing concepts and techniques, but he also gave me great feedback on how to make the speech better. He is a great writer who understands not only the core message but also the underlying emotions I want to convey through my speech.

I had a couple of proofreading sessions with Marek for checking my lyrics/poems, and it was an inspiring experience! I have to say that Marek is a meticulous and caring professional. The sessions were both enjoyable and thorough.
