About Darina
I learned English during my studies, including university, and I lived and worked in Ottawa (Canada) for 18 years. I speak six languages so I have experimented and developed several techniques to encourage language learning, word memorization methods, and tips for language maintenance. Thanks to the 15 years that I spent as a private math teacher, I have ample experience in teaching and in finding the right method to give each type of student the best possible results.

In the first class we will determine your current level of English and talk about your goals. Assessment consists of reading, speaking, listening, and writing and writing exercises. So, I can plan the classes to work on what you need, be it conversation, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Each lesson will be focused on a topic that will include new vocabulary and some grammar. The material already covered will be reviewed in several exercises using different situations. We will also practice impromptu communication, which will happen to you very often when traveling / working abroad, and for that reason it is very important to know how to do with confidence.

Darina is very experienced and a skilled teacher. She includes various topics useful for real life in her classes, so I’m able to start using what she teaches right away. My main reason for learning is to connect with my Slovak relatives, and Darina keeps me motivated to continue. I’m seeing real progress with her, and I couldn’t be any happier. Thank you Darina!
I’m very happy with my Slovak lessons with Darina, she makes it a real pleasure to learn! She’s attentive to my needs and weaknesses and adapts the lessons to match. I never feel rushed or too slow with my learning, she’s very patient and creates the perfect atmosphere to learn! I’d recommend Darina’s lessons to anyone.
I’ve been taking Slovak lessons with Darina for a few months now, and I’m already seeing progress! I feel more confident, and I’m starting to text and speak with my Slovak boyfriend in Slovak. He’s super impressed that I’m putting in the effort to learn his language and culture, and I’m super impressed with Darina’s ability to help me learn it! I got really lucky when I found Darina, I would definitely recommend her over anyone else!
Darina is definitely what you can call a “super” teacher, she takes the time to make sure I’ve really understood everything and know how to use it. Her exercises for oral practice are the best, so many teachers focus only on theory but fail to actually make the student communicate! Darina’s approach is totally the opposite, she focuses on the goal of real-life communication and everything we do in the lessons helps me achieve this goal. I’m very motivated, as I’m seeing real progress with Darina! I think she’s one of the best teachers you could possibly work with.
Darina is definitely the BEST teacher I’ve ever met!!! I’ve tried studying Slovak on my own for a long time, but I was always frustrated because the grammar is so complex and I could never understand the rules! Darina knows how to explain it so that everything makes sense, and she has excellent speaking exercises for us to practice everything it so that I turn my knowledge into skills. Now I can actually speak with my Slovak girlfriend in Slovak! Something I had only dreamed was possible before! If you want to learn Slovak, taking lessons with Darina is the best decision you could make for your goal.
I really wish I had found Darina earlier — she would have made learning Slovak so much easier, faster, and more fun!! I wanted to learn Slovak in order to be able to communicate with my husband’s family, who are all Slovak. I tried with self study methods, textbooks, and a few other teachers, but I couldn’t progress. When I started with Darina, she perfectly understood my needs and she makes the best lesson plans for me to reach my goals. Thanks to Darina, I’m able to have basic conversation in Slovak in less than a year of lessons with her!! I couldn’t be any happier with the classes. I don’t know about you, but I’ve definitely found the best teacher!
Darina is one of the very best teachers out there. She is always prepared for our lesson with material adapted to my level and goals, and her lessons are both interesting and effective. She focuses on communication, not just doing exercises, so there is a lot of interaction. By the end of the lesson, I feel like I’ve really learned the material well, and Darina gives me exercises so I can review outside of class too. I’d recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Slovak in order to really use it and communicate with ease!
"Darina was my son's tutor for 3 years during secondary school for several complex and advanced math courses. Darina is an impressive mathematician and an excellent teacher. She was able to break down math concepts into teachable components and ensured that my son fully understood the math concepts. In fact, my son often mentions that he continues to use the reasoning skills Darina taught him to understand and solve other problems. These are invaluable skills to have.
Darina is also patient and extremely conscientious. She always made herself available if my son felt he needed extra tutoring before a test. Importantly, my son enjoyed working with her. Darina cares, teaches well and really knows the subject matter. I would highly recommend her. "
Darina fue tutora de mi hijo durante 3 años en la escuela secundaria para varios complejos y avanzados cursos de matemáticas. Darina es una matemática impresionante y una excelente maestra. Ella fue capaz de romper conceptos de matemáticas en los componentes de enseñanza y se aseguró de que mi hijo entiende completamente los conceptos de matemáticas. De hecho, mi hijo a menudo menciona que continúa usando las habilidades de razonamiento que Darina le enseñó para entender y resolver otros problemas. Estas son habilidades invaluables para tener.
Darina también es paciente y extremadamente concienzuda. Ella siempre se hizo disponible si mi hijo sintió que necesitaba tutoría adicional antes de una prueba. Es importante destacar que mi hijo disfrutó trabajando con ella. Darina se preocupa, enseña bien y realmente sabe el tema. La recomiendo encarecidamente.Darina is able to encourage and promote understanding of mathematical concepts. She is patient and knows how to find where a student is at, building on their knowledge and understanding. She is able to identify what exactly needs to be worked on if a student struggles and builds progressively on their knowledge.
We were delighted to have Darina tutor our Grade 11 son, who had always struggled with Math. We saw him grow in confidence and take charge of his own learning. I would highly recommend Darina."I would highly recommend Darina as she is a very gifted teacher. Darina explains difficult math concepts to the student so they can understand math and apply the concepts they learn. I still remember telling Darina that my son had memory problems and that is why he had a hard time remembering math formulas. Darina told me she taught math like a chef teaches a student - she teaches her students to cook, not to memorize recipes. And my son did in fact learn how to do math very well with Darina. He always enjoyed the classes. His love of math returned. And I attribute that all to Darina."
Recomiendo encarecidamente a Darina, ella es una maestra muy dotada. Darina explica conceptos de matemáticas difíciles al estudiante para que puedan entender las matemáticas y aplicar los conceptos que se aprenden. Todavía recuerdo haberle dicho a Darina que mi hijo tenía problemas de memoria y por eso le costó mucho recordar fórmulas matemáticas. Darina me dijo que enseñó matemáticas como un chef enseña a un estudiante - enseña a sus estudiantes a cocinar, no a memorizar recetas. Y mi hijo de hecho aprendió a hacer matemáticas muy bien con Darina. Siempre disfrutaba de las clases. Su amor por las matemáticas volvió. Y lo atribuyo todo a Darina."Darina is an excellent teacher. She understands adolescent development and is quickly able to ascertain the difficulties an individual is having with mathematical concepts. She listens well, and is supportive and encouraging of her students and also ensures that they get their work done. Darina focuses on learning and the task at hand. Both my son and daughter received improved grades following on their sessions with Darina, she set them on a solid course for success in mathematics at university. I would not hesitate to recommend Darina as a teacher, and have done so when Darina was still living in Ottawa. Darina excels in her field of mathematics and knows how to teach the subject in a very understandable manner. She receives my highest recommendations."
Darina es una excelente maestra. Ella entiende el desarrollo adolescente y es rápidamente capaz de determinar las dificultades que un individuo está teniendo con conceptos matemáticos. Ella escucha bien, es de apoyo y alentador de sus estudiantes y también se asegura de que consigan su trabajo hecho. Darina se centra en el aprendizaje y la tarea a la mano. Tanto mi hijo como mi hija recibieron mejores notas después de sus sesiones con Darina, ella las estableció en un curso sólido para el éxito en matemáticas en la universidad. No dudaría en recomendar a Darina como maestra, y lo he hecho cuando Darina todavía vivía en Ottawa. Darina se destaca en su campo de matemáticas y sabe cómo enseñar el tema de una manera muy comprensible. Ella recibe mis recomendaciones más altas."I highly recommend Darina as a teacher. She tutored two of my children for two years, for their senior level high school math courses. They both graduated with excellent grades. Darina is very positive and instilled confidence in both children. Her structured approach based on logic and understanding rather than just "memorization" resulted in a strong foundation in math. It enabled both students to then be highly successful in their university level math courses for their science and engineering degrees. "
Recomiendo encarecidamente Darina como maestra. Ella enseñó a dos de mis hijos durante dos años, para sus cursos superiores de matemáticas de la escuela secundaria. Ambos se graduaron con excelentes calificaciones. Darina es muy positiva e infundió confianza en ambos niños. Su enfoque estructurado basado en la lógica y la comprensión en lugar de simplemente "memorización" resultó en una base sólida en matemáticas. Permitió a los dos estudiantes a ser muy exitosos en sus cursos de matemáticas de nivel universitario para sus títulos de ciencias e ingeniería.Darina es una gran profesional, tanto en la docencia como en el conocimiento de una materia tan compleja como las matemáticas. Posee mucha experiencia y facilidad para explicar el temario, hace que lo difícil parezca fácil.
Ha conseguido conectar con mi hijo y está siendo de gran ayuda. Estoy encantada con los resultados.View more recommendations
