Free Flow Marija

I have had conversation lessons with Marija for nearly two years now. As I live abroad and not in my home country a person who has also lived abroad - like Marija - will understand automatically what it means if you come to a new country. The challenges of the language, the customs and traditions, basically the culture. Apart from living abroad she has travelled widely which is an additional asset because it enriches our conversations when looking at Croatia because we are able to employ that outside look. Moreover, Marija is a resident in one area of Croatia, but originally stems from another area. This is very useful because it provides surprising insights. For me as someone who has roots in Croatia, but never has lived there this is a definite bonus because you can get to know different parts of the country in one person. If you are looking for an open-minded person with whom you can talk about almost anything then Marija is the perfect choice.

Lessons with Marija are thought provoking and open to a deeper analysis of the world around us. Allowing a learning of a language and culture of a higher standard and at the same time, stimulating the senses in our otherwise mundane lives. Bravo Marija!

I've been working with Marija for a little over a year and a half now and I really can't say enough good things about her. She is a clear and thoughtful instructor, and each lesson is carefully planned out and organized. I really look forward to each lesson, and they always seem to go by very quickly because I am enjoying each lesson. Thanks to her teaching, I've been able to have some basic conversations with my Croatian in-laws - something I couldn't do at all when I first started working with her! I look forward to continuing to grow my Croatian thanks to her, and I would highly recommend her as an instructor for anyone looking to learn the challenging and beautiful Croatian language.

Lessons with Marija are always an enrichment, academically and personally. She is definitely one of the best teachers on Italki.

Marija is an absolute pleasure - extremely friendly, interesting, and patient. Looking forward to many more lessons! 😃

Super helpful lesson as always! Made a lot of progress with Marija's support.
