Hi everyone, I’m Tihana—a nature-loving, book-obsessed English and Serbian tutor with 8,000+ lessons under my belt! 🌿📚
I specialize in **conversational English** for adults (A2-C1), helping you speak confidently through relaxed, real-life discussions—no grammar intimidation here! When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me hiking, devouring Nordic thrillers, or laughing with childhood friends (who swear I’m stubborn but a great listener).
Let’s turn your language goals into joyful progress—**freedom to speak, freedom to smile!** See you in class! 🚀Me as a Teacher
Who Am I?
I am a TEFL-certified teacher with 6 years of experience in online teaching and over 8,000 lessons conducted.
I focus on real, everyday communication—whether we’re working on Business English or just casual conversation. We’ll talk about the kind of things you’d actually say in real life, not the awkward stuff from textbooks.
During our lessons, I’ll point out your mistakes and help you say things in a more natural way—without breaking the flow of the conversation.
My lessons aren’t strict like traditional school classes—but that doesn’t mean we don’t have tasks to finish in every single lesson!
You don’t want homework? No problem.
You do want homework? Even better! 😉 My lessons & teaching style
I understand that speaking with native speakers can sometimes feel intimidating, especially when focusing on grammar rules. My approach is different— I create a relaxed and encouraging atmosphere, helping you speak freely without the pressure. I believe in focusing on communication rather than perfection, which makes the learning process smoother and more enjoyable.
Besides Conversational English and Business English, I can also help you polish your English Tenses.
If you want to practice English with a friend, colleague, or partner, I also offer an English Duo Class — a more affordable way to learn together and practice speaking in pairs!

Dear Tihana, thank you very much for the English and Serbian lessons. Thanks to you, I realized that I can start speaking Serbian after two weeks of studying.
Friends, if you are looking for a teacher of Serbian or English, I highly recommend Tihana as a person who is able not only to explain complex things in an accessible and simple way, but also as a very patient, positive and attentive mentor.
If you have doubts about your abilities, she, like a true psychologist, will sort out all your doubts and will support every minute of the lesson.

First, let me say that my review does not reflect just one or two classes with Tihana. At this point, I have completed ten conversation practice classes with Tihana. These classes are particularly good for me because I have already had some Serbian language training that emphasized grammar and reading comprehension. Now I want to focus on listening and speaking.
The conversation classes have structure but are also informal; this provides a good balance. Each class has a different conversation topic which is good for expanding one’s vocabulary. I am given ample opportunity to speak which of course is the main point of these classes for me.
Tihana is friendly, reliable, and engaging in conversation in a meaningful and learning manner. I look forward to each class.
