About Me
italki teacher since Aug 11, 2018InterestsMusicTravelFood
Hi, I am Marija.
I have a Bachelor degree in English language and literature.
I was the owner of Foreign Language Center in Serbia for 6 years.After attending English language courses in Bedford, Bedforshire, England I decided to start teaching online. Until now, I have had more than 2000 lessons online.
My passion is traveling and teaching English.Me as a Teacher
I've taught English to students of various language levels, individually and in groups ( in a language school, high junior school, grammar school, and online).
My aim is to motivate my students to study English. I inspire them to be persistent in studying English. I can help my students to reach their goal of fluency, but I also give them techniques to have better language skills so that they aren't dependent on me or any teaching materials.My lessons & teaching style
We can practise speaking in my lessons, but also we can practise grammar, vocabulary expanding and listening. If you are A Level Beginner we can do more grammar, affirmative and negative sentence construction and listening exercises.
But if you are B or C Level we will practise more vocabulary expanding, speaking and listening, we can discuss challenging topics, reading news articles, and less grammar.My teaching material

I have been taking classes with Marija for a year now, and I cannot express enough how helpful, supportive, and informative she has been. She truly ensures that we grasp the material/books and stay on track with our lessons. After taking a break for a few months, she was incredibly attentive in helping me catch up and refresh my understanding of the subjects. I wholeheartedly recommend Marija; she is an exceptional teacher, and I always look forward to our classes together! Hvala puno Marija!

Marija is always so patient and helpful, and has a brilliant way of correcting my mistakes without derailing my speaking confidence. She will speak in Serbian for the whole lesson if you require this so you can practice your listening skills and learn many new words, she’s a very natural and interesting teacher and I love my lessons with her.
