About Marina Alix
Technology, IT and Computer Science are not simply subjects I teach – they are something I have lived and breathed since childhood!
My passion for computers began at a very young age, and I have spent most of my life studying, exploring and working with technology. What started as a childhood fascination developed into a lifelong passion for understanding how computers work, solving technical problems and continuously expanding my knowledge.
Over the years, I have gained extensive knowledge and practical experience across numerous areas of IT, including computer hardware and software, operating systems, networking, troubleshooting, computer maintenance, programming, web development, digital design and advanced software applications.
My educational background includes studies and training in Information Technology, CompTIA A+, Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Office, programming, web development and various specialised software platforms. I have also spent years applying these skills professionally, giving me valuable real-world experience beyond textbooks and theoretical learning.
Technology is constantly evolving, and one of the things I love most about this field is that there is always something new to discover. I genuinely enjoy learning, experimenting with new technologies and finding creative solutions to technical challenges.
As a tutor, my goal is to share that enthusiasm and knowledge with my students. I understand that computers can seem complicated or intimidating, particularly for beginners, which is why I believe in teaching with patience, encouragement and clear, easy-to-understand explanations.
Whether I'm helping a young student understand Computer Science, guiding someone through their very first experience using a computer, or assisting a learner with more advanced technical concepts, I aim to make every lesson enjoyable, practical and rewarding.
I believe that anyone can become confident with technology when they have the right guidance, support and encouragement.
For me, teaching IT isn't just about explaining how computers work. It's about helping others discover the possibilities that technology can offer and giving them the confidence and skills to explore those possibilities for themselves.

I offer comprehensive, structured online courses in Computer Science and Basic Computer Skills, covering all South African school grades (Grades 1–12) and Cambridge International curricula. Lessons are suitable for students of all ages and experience levels, from complete beginners to those looking to develop more advanced technical knowledge.
My Computer Science lessons follow a full course curriculum tailored to each student's grade, educational level and learning requirements. Course content and difficulty vary depending on the student's grade and school curriculum, ensuring lessons are age-appropriate, engaging and aligned with their academic goals.
I also offer a complete Introduction to Computers course, designed specifically for absolute beginners with little or no previous computer experience. This course starts with the fundamentals, including understanding computer hardware, using a keyboard and mouse, navigating Windows, managing files and folders, using the internet and email, and learning essential software such as Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
Lessons are delivered step by step, combining clear explanations, practical demonstrations and hands-on exercises to build confidence and develop useful, real-world computer skills.
All courses are adapted to the student's individual learning pace, existing knowledge and personal goals, with a strong focus on developing practical skills and a thorough understanding of the subject.
Recommendations

English used to be a subject I found intimidating, especially when it came to grammar, writing and understanding complicated texts. Marina helped make everything feel much easier by explaining concepts in simple, practical ways and allowing me to learn at my own pace.
She never made me feel uncomfortable about struggling and always encouraged me to keep trying. Her enthusiasm for language is contagious, and she has a wonderful sense of humour that makes lessons enjoyable. More than anything, she helped me feel confident enough to participate, ask questions and believe that I could improve.Marina has an incredible way of making even the most complicated subjects feel manageable. She is patient, encouraging and never makes you feel embarrassed for asking questions or making mistakes.
She explains things clearly and always finds a different approach if you're struggling to understand something. What I appreciated most was that she genuinely wanted me to succeed and helped me develop confidence in my own abilities.
She doesn't just teach you the answers; she helps you understand how to find them yourself. I would highly recommend her!Marina is an exceptionally knowledgeable, creative and dedicated educator with a genuine passion for teaching. Her understanding of English Language and Literature, combined with her Montessori training and adaptable teaching methods, allows her to approach education with both structure and imagination.
She recognizes that every student has different strengths and challenges and takes considerable care in making lessons engaging, accessible and meaningful. Her professionalism, communication skills and commitment to individual development make her an excellent choice for students seeking personalised academic support.If you're looking for someone who can make English interesting, Marina is exactly the kind of teacher you want!
Her enthusiasm for books, creative writing and language really shines through. She has a lovely sense of humour, endless patience and a gift for making lessons feel like conversations rather than lectures.
I particularly appreciate that she treats students as individuals, encouraging them to think for themselves, express their opinions and explore their creativity.
Marina genuinely loves what she teaches, and that enthusiasm makes such a difference. She's approachable, knowledgeable and encouraging, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!
