Marly (KIDS&Adults)

Thank you Marly! We had an amazing lesson and I continue to learn and improve every time we meet. I always enjoy our lessons and love how fun you make the learning units.

Marly is truly the best at play-based Spanish lessons, while also making sure that my almost 8-year old is constantly reviewing grammar and learning new vocabulary, without realizing it. For the hardcore grammar exercises, like conjugations, Marly sends a worksheet to do as homework. She is truly a treasure in my daughter's life, and my daughter is always happy with her lessons, even if they are on the weekend or after a long day of other activities, since Marly is up-beat, positive, and very fast-paced (in a good way).

Incredible, fun, entertaining

Thank you for putting so much time and thought into each lesson plan! My daughter just thinks she is having fun with her friend Marly...you make learning conversation, and even textbook grammar so fun for her! You are so great with kids, and such a talented teacher to be able to pack so much learning into a lesson, and still get an 8 year old to laugh and giggle the whole time!

Marley was great with my son. She was able to review some items he already knew and teach him some new vocabulary and lesson plans.

After four years on italki—cycling through daily lessons with more than a dozen instructors in pursuit of DELE C1—I’d nearly lost my spark for Spanish, worn down by chronic lateness, unfocused screens, last-minute cancellations, perfunctory textbook pages, and the disheartening chorus of “no” whenever I slipped. Then I found Marly, and everything changed. From day one she has been impeccably punctual, laser-focused, and intensely observant, catching my tiniest errors, softening each correction with warmth, and following up with concise mini-lessons plus tailored homework beautifully graded and annotated within 24 hours. Over a decade of language teaching and teacher-training has taught me to expect these fundamentals, yet Marly surpasses them: she wields advanced vocabulary, nuanced grammar, and DELE C1 strategies with the polish of a master coach, all while radiating an infectious energy that reignited my love of Spanish. Marly is the finest Spanish teacher I have encountered !
