I am a BA Languages graduate doing a postgraduate degree in Interpreting in Johannesburg, South Africa. I am in love with language learning and currently have 5 under my belt! (Eng, Bg, It, Esp, Fr)
I am born into an Italian family on my mother's side and a Bulgarian one on my father's side. When I was 7 years old my parents and I moved to Bulgaria where I learned the language in school. This was difficult because I had absolutely no clue what people were talking about...for a solid 6 months. But, once I learned the language, I spent time learning Italian, French, and Spanish.
I dream of being a successful interpreter and traveling to new places to help join others in conversation.
Ich als Lehrkraft
Teaching my students and friends how to speak languages has been something that naturally occurred from a young age. My friends' parents would have their kids practice English with me and once I went to university, I started teaching Italian and Bulgarian privately.
There is nothing more rewarding than seeing your students improve on their speaking and grasp more and more with each lesson. I love to facilitate that learning for my students and make it as fun as possible. Jokes are never set aside!
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My teaching style is personalized, gentle, and thorough. I analyze how my students can learn best in each moment and provide them with a relevant style of teaching. Some days you want to have the chance to think about an answer and on others you need a bit more guidance. I will move at your desired pace & provide you with the most essential learning materials.
I enjoy teaching 3 lesson types!
1. Brilliant Bulgarian - A1 to B1, structured lessons with an emphasis on listening, reading, writing and grammar. The whole package!
2. Conversational Classes - Perfect for intermediate & advanced students to practice their vocabulary and acquire even more!
3. Slavik Slang - Moving towards native!
Thank you, Kristina, for another wonderful lesson! I've found out so many new useful words and phrases. I'm very grateful for your patience and genuine interest in my personality and my progress as well!

Kristina is attentive to student needs. She makes sure to ask me questions relevant to the material that I have already studied and corrects me at appropriate times. She also keeps me engaged and does not rush over the material, explaining grammar where needed. I appreciate her attentiveness and good communication.
