My lessons are always planned with the specific needs of my students. We will run a needs analysis at the first meeting and then I create a program of study tailored to your own needs.
The lessons are planned with interactivity and engagement in mind. You will practice in a safe and comfortable environment under my guidance.
My online lessons are through Microsoft Teams. I use different types of technologies to make my lessons more engaging and interactive. I use quizzes, virtual board/Padlet and many more. Each lesson has an accompanying PowerPoint presentation with handouts to which you have access to through MsTeams.
I have 12+ years of experience of teaching English as a second language (2 years of experience) and teaching English for academic purposes (10+ yearsin total - out of this 4 years of teaching online). I also have just started to prepare my students for their IELTS exam. I have experience of taking the exam myself and of being an IELTS examiner, so I decided to expand to share my knowledge and experience in this field too.
Currently, I am a part time lecturer at the University of Southampton where I prepare students for their studies here in the United Kingdom.
I have a PhD, a Masters and a BA in applied linguistics/English philology. All focused on English language teaching. I use my extensive knowledge and apply it in my virtual classrooms. Come and join me for a fun filled lessons where you'll be learning and reaching your goals under my gentle guidance.

I got to know Marta for the first time in June this year, when I attended an online pre-sessional course in the University of Southampton. Marta was my listening and speaking tutor. During the whole 11-week learning process, she never showed impatience in class or when I asked questions, and she was always very friendly. The most important thing is that she always encourages us positively, finds our good points and makes us more confident. Plus, I also noticed that after each of our online classes, Marta always waits for the students to leave and then leaves, which makes us feel really good. We all love Marta. (Please remain anonymous)
