Marianne G.

Hello! I'm Marianne. I have a CELTA teaching designation and a Masters Degree in Librarianship and more than 10 years international teaching experience. I have a proven track record of success helping students learn English in Thailand, Chile, Canada, Saudi Arabia, China and Mexico. First of all, I ask what your goals are, what your interests are, and what you find hard to learn, and what you find easier to learn, and how you learn best. This will help me make lessons that meet your needs exactly. I use interactive activities, games, role plays to make learning FUN and memorable and give you all the practice you need to gain confidence, accuracy and reach mastery of the English you are learning with me. I use Spaced Repetition, and a system of learning using guided learning, freer and free practise, and include activities to help you learn listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. My students talk 70% of the time, and I only speak 30% of the time, so you are guaranteed enough time to repeat and move things from short term into long term memory. I know my approach works well. Here's the proof. In Chile, I won awards for my teaching three years in a row, for being in the top 10% of all the English teachers in the CORFO English program, based on student TESOL test score improvement.
