Mark is experienced, responsible and very friendly teacher. Our son enjoys the lessons with Mark, the topics are interesting and helpful. The lesson always continues 60 and more minutes instead 45. Thank you so much, Mark!
I really recommend him!
I have been teaching English for twenty years, in several different countries including Italy, Brazil and Hungary. I was also a teacher for 12 years at one of London's most respected language schools. So I have a lot of experience. I speak several languages, which helps me to communicate and relate to the issues of language learners.
Students enjoy my fun and lively approach.

Teaching Approach
My approach is fun and personal. I like students to talk about their lives and interests as this helps them to really express themselves in the language.
I have a good understanding of grammar and a lot of experience teaching it in a communicative way. I am also interested in pronunciation, and enjoy helping students with any problems they have.
