About Me

Hi! My name is Dajana, and I’m a language and communication coach with nearly 8 years of teaching experience, working with learners from diverse cultural backgrounds. I teach English and Serbian, focusing on practical communication, confidence-building, and real-life language use.
I’m TEFL certified and a final-year psychology student, which allows me to combine effective language-learning methods with a strong understanding of motivation, emotions, and learning styles. I love helping students feel more confident and express themselves clearly in everyday and professional situations.
Besides teaching, I’m a big animal lover, and I enjoy cooking simple meals, reading, and exploring!Me as a Teacher
I am an empathetic and student-centered teacher, creating a supportive space where learners feel confident expressing themselves. I focus on practical communication and real-life situations, adapting lessons to each student’s goals, pace, and learning style. I hold a TEFL certificate (2018) and use a communicative, coaching-based approach, combining structured guidance, role-plays, and reflection. With a background in psychology and ongoing education in psychotherapy, I help students overcome emotional blocks, build confidence, and learn effectively, engagingly, and naturally. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are practical, engaging, and personalized to your goals, pace, and learning style. I focus on real-life communication, role-plays, and interactive exercises that build both language skills and confidence. Using a communicative and coaching-based approach, I guide, encourage, and support learners, helping them overcome challenges and gain independence. With my background in psychology and TEFL certification, I create a safe, motivating, and effective learning environment where progress feels natural and enjoyable.My teaching material

I've had many teachers over the years, but Dajana truly stands out as one of the best. She consistently comes to class well-prepared, understands my individual needs, and creates a supportive learning environment. Her patience and encouragement have made a huge difference in my confidence and skills. Thanks to her, I've seen real improvement in my English. I’m very grateful for her dedication and guidance!

The trial lesson with Dajana was a great experience! From the very beginning, she was very pleasant, patient, and professional. She clearly explained the lesson plan, and we immediately focused on the areas that are most important to me – conversation and preparation for job interviews.
