About Marina Alix
Hello! I'm Marina, and I've always believed that education is one of the most powerful gifts we can give another person.
My passion for teaching comes from a very personal place. During some of the most difficult years of my life, I had a teacher who changed everything for me. He believed in me, stood up for me, protected me when I needed it most, and helped me discover a strength I didn't even know I possessed. Looking back, I realise that so much of the confidence and courage I eventually found within myself grew quietly through his patience, kindness and guidance.
**He didn't just teach me. He helped me find my voice.**
I've always loved learning, expanding my mind and discovering the extraordinary beauty of language. I would fall in love with new words, their meanings and the endless possibilities of how they could be woven into my writing. But language gave me something even more valuable: confidence. I discovered that being able to express yourself eloquently, communicate your thoughts clearly and speak with both intelligence and compassion is its own form of strength and grace.
With my Cambridge English qualifications and Montessori teaching background, I bring both academic knowledge and a genuine understanding of how differently people learn.
I'm also an avid reader, illustrator and aspiring novelist, so creativity and storytelling are naturally part of who I am.
To me, teaching is so much more than passing on information. It's about encouraging curiosity, nurturing confidence and helping someone discover what they're truly capable of.
If I can make even a fraction of the difference in someone's life that my teacher made in mine, I would consider that an incredible privilege.
And perhaps, along the way, I can help someone else fall in love with the wonderful world of words, just as I did.

I firmly believe that everyone learns differently, and that the true art of teaching lies in discovering how each individual learns best and adapting your approach to suit them. No two students are the same, and I believe education should be as unique as the person receiving it!
With a background in Cambridge English Language and Literature and Montessori education, I combine the best of both teaching philosophies. My lessons encourage curiosity, creativity, independent thinking and confidence, while maintaining a structured approach to developing strong language skills.
My teaching style is friendly, patient, encouraging and adaptable. I aim to create a comfortable, supportive environment where students feel confident asking questions, making mistakes and learning at their own pace. I believe learning should be enjoyable, engaging and something students genuinely look forward to!
What you can expect from my lessons:
- Personalised lessons tailored to your age, learning style, abilities and goals.
- English grammar, vocabulary, spelling, reading comprehension and creative writing.
- English Literature, including poetry, novels, literary analysis and critical thinking.
- Conversational English, pronunciation and communication skills.
- Assistance with schoolwork, assignments, examinations and academic development.
- Interactive discussions, practical exercises, creative activities and constructive feedback.
My lessons are taught in English and are suitable for children, teenagers and adults, from beginners to more advanced students.
Each lesson begins with understanding what you would like to achieve, followed by activities and explanations adapted to your learning needs. I regularly assess progress and adjust my teaching methods to ensure you feel supported, challenged and motivated.
Above all, my goal isn't simply to teach English, but to help students develop a genuine love for learning, build confidence in their abilities and discover just how much they are capable of achieving.

English used to be a subject I found intimidating, especially when it came to grammar, writing and understanding complicated texts. Marina helped make everything feel much easier by explaining concepts in simple, practical ways and allowing me to learn at my own pace.
She never made me feel uncomfortable about struggling and always encouraged me to keep trying. Her enthusiasm for language is contagious, and she has a wonderful sense of humour that makes lessons enjoyable. More than anything, she helped me feel confident enough to participate, ask questions and believe that I could improve.Marina has an incredible way of making even the most complicated subjects feel manageable. She is patient, encouraging and never makes you feel embarrassed for asking questions or making mistakes.
She explains things clearly and always finds a different approach if you're struggling to understand something. What I appreciated most was that she genuinely wanted me to succeed and helped me develop confidence in my own abilities.
She doesn't just teach you the answers; she helps you understand how to find them yourself.
