About Marina

Bringing the Spanish spirit straight to your screen

Hi, my name is Marina! In Spanish, my name means “of the sea” — which feels symbolic, because I’ve loved the sea and the sun since childhood.
Although I come from Northern Europe, my personality turned out to be anything but “northern.” From a young age, I was drawn to Latin American music and dance. I would sing along to world-famous songs like Bésame mucho , Historia de un amor etc…, and later I discovered my true passion — flamenco. This traditional Spanish dance became a part of my life for many years.

My stories is like yours

Through dancing, I began to dive deeper not only into the language of movement, but also into the Spanish language itself, its culture, and traditions. I wanted to truly understand the people around me — both on stage and in everyday life. That’s why, alongside my career as a choreographer and dance teacher, I decided to study Spanish Philology at Vilnius University. To this day, I believe it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Over the years, my academic studies combined with my artistic background, shaping me into a unique kind of teacher. I don’t just teach Spanish from a textbook — I share the living culture behind the language. I know how Spaniards think, feel, and see the world, and I bring that into every lesson.In my classes, I always adapt to each student’s personality and goals. Together, we go beyond grammar and vocabulary — they’ll find itself immersed in the spirit of the Spanish-speaking world, learning not just to speak Spanish, but to think and feel in Spanish.

In the past five years, many of my students have achieved their dreams: moving to Spain, making new Spanish-speaking friends and even meeting their soulmates, boosting their careers, or simply enjoying the joy of connecting in the world’s second most spoken language. Spanish brings together nearly half a billion people, and my goal is to help my students not only gain confidence in communication, but also feel part of this vibrant and inspiring community.
