First, thank you for taking the time to learn more about me.
My name is Dragana, but you can call me Gaga (yes, like the singer—but I promise I only teach languages, not dance routines).
I was born and raised in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, and now I live in a small town near the Hungarian border. I'm a language student too! I'm learning Hungarian. It's... let's just say it's keeping me humble :)
I started learning English when I was nine and instantly fell in love with it.
I'm genuinely curious about people—their cultures, and stories—and I truly respect and appreciate our differences.
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
I’ve been teaching English and Serbian to students of all ages—ranging from absolute beginners to advanced intermediate—for the past 6-7 years.
I worked as a marketing assistant for a Canadian software and medical device company (a fancy way of saying I wrote a lot of emails and survived more Skype calls than I care to admit— somehow Skype still existed!) 😄
That experience really boosted my confidence in using English professionally and helped me grow into a more resourceful and adaptable teacher.
I’d be more than happy to share what I’ve learned with you.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
The advantage of learning one-on-one is that methods and materials can—and should—be tailored to each student’s needs. We can use videos, audio recordings, articles, tests, and more.
As Aristotle said, “It is frequent repetition that produces a natural tendency.”
With that in mind, the best way to start a new lesson is with a review of the previous one—briefly, of course. :)
Dragana is a really nice and helpful teacher. She is also very patient and understanding. The lessons are always conducted in an interesting way. Dragana helps me improve my English, I'm always looking forward to the next lesson. I recommend Dragana as a teacher with all my heart!

Thanks for another great lesson, Dragana! I am truly amazed by how well you speak English, and even more so by your communication skills in general. You're so unassuming that it's only after I've spent a half hour answering one of your many great questions that I realize that you'd known the answer all along :) I'm on to your Jedi mind tricks!

I really enjoyed studying with Dragana – she’s very calm, professional, and it felt super comfortable with her. I also found it very convenient that she took notes in the chat, so after the lesson I could go back to them, write them down in my notebook, and review – that really helps. Overall, the lesson just flew by for me – it was really interesting! :)
