About Marie
Standing in my first classroom 13 years ago, I realized that language learning is deeply tied to how our brains organize information. My degree from UBC in Vocal Performance and TEFL allows me to blend linguistic structure with the rhythmic nuances of speech. I have worked with everyone from Grade 3 newcomer kids to adults finding their footing in Canada. My approach prioritizes clarity and nervous system regulation to ensure you feel secure while building your English.
The focus remains on functional communication for business travelers, absolute beginners, and IELTS candidates. I have supported countless learners in finding their voice through steady and patient guidance. Seeing students gain confidence in their ability to navigate complex social interactions provides me with the greatest satisfaction.
My professional identity is rooted in the idea that your unique brain is an asset. You are welcome to reach out if you would like to begin this process together.

Silence rarely fills the space during our time together because we prioritize active, meaningful participation. My 13 years of experience have shown me that consistent, low-pressure exposure leads to the best results for language acquisition. Having earned a degree in Vocal Performance, I treat pronunciation as a physical skill that responds well to specific, manageable adjustments.
We will navigate idioms, phrasal verbs, and everyday conversation at a speed that fits your personal comfort zone. Developing your speaking confidence often relies on these small, iterative steps rather than memorizing dry grammar rules. I bring a structured yet flexible methodology to our interactions to ensure you stay engaged. It truly is a pleasure to watch these connections form in real time.
