Dragana has been great to work with. I spoke French fluently 30 years ago, but I rarely used it in the last 20 years, so my skills were rusty. I was preparing for the DALF C1 and I needed someone to help correct my speaking and writing. Dragana was able to adapt to my level and to my particular needs/ challenges. After just a few lessons with her, I passed the DALF C1, so I am very happy. She provides appropriate feedback and encouragement, and she is very professional. I definitely recommend her.

The lessons are always very engaging. I learn a lot throughout the lesson. Dragana is very flexible in terms of what each lesson consists of and is very creative with the ideas she proposes. She provides a safe and supportive environment during the lesson. Her friendly and kind demeanor has made the learning process very enjoyable and comfortable. I look forward to learning more French with Dragana.
