Hi, I'm Marina. I'm a qualified, passionate and experienced MFL Teacher. As foreign languages, and especially French, have always been my favourite subject, following a teaching career and working with primary and secondary aged pupils was to me a natural and genuine desire. I am fluent in Greek, French, advanced in German and with good knowledge in Spanish language being able to actively contribute to the improvement of pupils' listening, oral and written skills. As language and culture are intimately linked, the above language skills together with my familiarisation with the relevant foreign cultures during my school and academic periods of life made me a global-minded person respecting all ethnic groups and recognising the importance of designing opportunities for learners to experience better and appreciate the cultural diversity. I love working with primary aged pupils in groups or on an individual basis, aiming to cultivate an effective, happy and active learning environment by infusing French culture, using various resources and organising stimulating play and hands-on activities. I love also working with secondary aged students providing them the extra-support and adapting my lessons to cater for their individual needs. Throughout my teaching in a classroom and on an individual basis, I always establish great professional rapport with my students and create a trusting atmosphere through sensitivity to students’ strengths and weaknesses. I have always been fascinated in expanding my personal and professional experiences. So, I feel that my move to UK (in July '16) with my family - my husband and two children - offered to me a real enrichment of diverse professional environments. Joining the TSST programme at a Secondary Academy, which involved French and Spanish lessons observation, support to teachers, tutoring to KS3/KS4 students and delivery of parts of lessons, equipped me with the necessary knowledge of the national curriculum requirements and provided me with a priceless experience of successful teaching to the relevant age of pupils. As self-motivated, cheerful, punctual and patient individual I feel such personal qualities, along with respect and honesty when working in partnership with the parents and carers, have also enabled me to be an effective self-employed French Tutor for more than ten years. This was reflected on the excellent results which primary and secondary pupils with different levels obtained to their official French examinations recognised by the Common European Framework of Reference of Languages (A1-A2-B1-B2-C1). I am here to create the proper learning experiences for my students that will engage and motivate them and help them love the French language.
