Hello, I'm Nina, a young linguist and a language lover. I have been passionate about languages since young age which is what made me enroll for the English language studies a few years back. I'm an experienced, TEFL certified English teacher and Serbian native speaker. I have taught both English and Serbian for the last 5 years, with the intention and focus on making my students feel safe and confident, and eligible to communicate in their target language.
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher I value a pleasant and supportive learning environment where students feel safe, relaxed and confident to express themselves. I believe that making mistakes is natural and necessary part of learning and I encourage open communication while creating a space where student are not afraid try, experiment and learn from those mistakes.
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is based on three key principles:
- Structure
- Relevance
- Efficiency
I believe that lessons should be well-organized, goal-oriented, and focused on language that is truly useful in real-life situations.
Communication is at the core of my lessons. I help students not only understand how the language works, but also how and when to use it in everyday communication.

Nikolina is definitely your future teacher. If you are looking for a relaxed conversation based on interesting topics and, on the other hand, makes you strive and improve, this is the best option, don't think twice!

Nikolina is a great teacher! She is very friendly, helpful, and makes you feel comfortable no matter your level. She also goes above and beyond to structure each lesson around your individual needs as a student. Whatever your language learning goals are, she will be able to help you reach them.

I've taken several lessons with Nikolina and have noticed considerable improvements with my Serbian thus far. She is open, friendly, and is interested in a wide range of topics so the conversational practice is always very engaging. She is excellent at helping students grow their range of vocabulary and applying it to their speech. I'm looking forward to taking many more lessons with her and I'd recommend her to Serbian language learners of all levels!
