Now, let me introduce myself—I’m Olivia D. Augustin, a civil engineer, expat, polyglot, and professional word nerd. I’ve walked the path of an engineer just like you, so I understand the challenges we face when it comes to mastering language skills. That’s why I created Marcode—to bridge the gap between engineering expertise and language proficiency.
I believe in a personalized approach tailored to match your goals and unique personality. I’ve combined my engineering and language teaching degrees to design the perfect course for you, providing the tools you need to excel in your field. Whether you’re tackling technical reports, giving presentations, or engaging in business discussions, I’ve got your back.
I value practicality, accessibility, and professionalism. I’m not here to lecture you on outdated grammar rules or bore you with endless exercises. Instead, think of me as your trusted partner, guiding you through the intricacies of Technical English and Business English. Together, we’ll dissect the English language, focusing only on the essential elements that engineers need to become skilled communicators.
I understand that true communication extends beyond words. That’s why I emphasize the development of your interpersonal skills as well, such as active listening, cultural awareness, and effective collaboration. I want to empower you to connect with others on a deeper level and forge strong professional relationships that will drive your success.
But my passion for education doesn’t stop at Marcode. In my free time, I dedicate myself to voluntary work, teaching and contributing to construction projects. Making a positive impact in people’s lives through knowledge-sharing is a driving force for me.
Now, let me share some testimonials from engineers like yourself who have experienced the benefits of my approach:
👉 ” In my line of work, I am in regular contact with customers. As a result of Olivia’s tutoring, my confidence grew, and therefore our customer service significantly improved.” –Michael K., mechanical engineer, about the 1:1 custom tailored lessons
👉 “Olivia is not a teacher who’s standing in front of me, shoving grammar down my throat. It’s more like she’s looking over my shoulder, helping me every step of the way. It feels more like a coffee break.” –Phil, HSE engineer, about the 25min conversational training
👉 ” I’m a non-technical partner in a software startup, and this email pack is seriously a life-saver. Ok, maybe not life, but definitely saves time & avoids miscommunications. It’s nice to be able to speak to the engineers in their language without having to constantly translate my own “business words” to technical English.” –Felicia, about the Emails for Engineers template package
In addition to personalized one-on-one lessons, Marcode offers a digital product called The Emails for Engineers Template package. This resource provides you with ready-to-use templates, enabling you to communicate effectively in technical English without any hassle.
