Experienced teacher of English as a Foreign Language. Speak better, pass your exams, enjoy life in the UK!

Martina has been tutoring our primary school aged son now for approximately 6 months and we cannot praise her enough! Aswell as really improving his maths and comprehension skills , we are also really delighted how she rewards the childrens learning and encourages areas to work on like patience or reviewing their work. She has a great grasp of children's emotions aswell as the learning aspect . I would strongly recommend her to anyone!

We were extremely happy with the choice we made when employing Martina to tutor our son. Our 7 year old was behind his peers and the coronavirus was potentially widening this gap, given the lack of time and resource we had to manage the rest of the family and work commitments. Martina was very thorough in identifying the gaps in his abilities and was able to manage this alongside another child with whom we shared the lessons with. We had constant feedback and updates on his progress and the work was very well structured and thought out. The resources we needed to ready for the week were all laid out at the weekend, so we just needed to sort this out once a week. Additional homework was provided to complete where possible. We would highly recommend Martina to anyone looking for a tutor and would gladly answer any questions anyone may have.

Hi Martina is tutoring my daughter for french GCSE, we have been bowled over with her organised and methodical approach to the lessons. She has a relaxed style and a positive attitude. I would really recommend Martina. Nicky lawrence-Gravestock

Martina is an extremely competent, dedicated, enthusiastic and knowledgeable all-round educator and teacher - she has been a huge asset to our team and has not only taught students but also assisted with materials development for young learners and teens. I would wholeheartedly recommend her as a language teacher or tutor for students of any age.

Martina hasn't taught me but she is a close friend and I can absolutely vouch for her passion and skill. If I were learning a language I can't think who I would rather have teach me!
Martina is enthusiastic, methodical and communicates very clearly. She has a talent for languages, and we have had many a conversation about how fascinating we find various words, phrases and language systems - I know this is not just a job to her, it's something she genuinely loves.

In the time I've known Martina, she has taught herself at least one additional language fluently (Spanish) and started learning a couple more on top of what she already knew. She never stops pushing herself and wanting to learn more.

Most importantly, Martina is incredibly friendly and understanding. As a person she will go out of her way to help people, and I know that she would be no different in teaching a language.

She has provided extensive tuition in the time I have known her, both privately and in schools, giving her a huge variety of experience which I know will have informed her teaching style.

I know Martina since childhood and I know that she is a passionate (language) teacher, this is why I asked her to help me on a very important project: my thesis. I wrote it in English and she was very patient and attentive in giving me suggestions and good tips about grammar and prosody. Moreover, she speaks my own mother tongue (Italian) so that she could help me advisedly because she knew Italian’s specific problems in learning English. I can’t recommend her enough for her help!
