About Marina

Asturias
Asturias, where I was born, is a green and beautiful region in the North of Spain which is full of contrasts: high mountains, valleys, forests, National Parks, traditional wooden houses and the wide Cantabric Sea.
In Asturias we enjoy nature, make and drink apple cider, have drums and bagpipes as local music and keep old traditions alive.
A deep interest in languages
One of the things I enjoy the most is studying languages, speaking them and reading English, Italian or French books.
Due to this love I have for them, I attend several language courses and teaching practice, enjoy travelling and get international certificates every once in a while:
English
C2 Certificate of Proficiency in English (CPE) by Cambridge University.
English Teacher Training Certificates by Cambridge Assessment English
Italian
C2 Certificate of Mastery in Italian (PLIDA) by Società Dante Alighieri di Roma.
Spanish
Spanish Teacher Training Certificate by International House
Accredited centre by the Spanish Instituto Cervantes
French
B1 Certificate of Intermediate level in French by Alliance Française.

A passion for travel
Having travelled around different places and countries over the years, I have gained a new perspective of life, languages and teaching.
It is thanks to all the experiences and people I have met on the way that, today, I work sharing all I have learnt about communicating in other languages.
