Hello all!
My name is Valerija and I have missed speaking my beloved mother tongue, so I am super excited to be able to teach again. I briefly studied English-French-Slovenian trans communication but then decided to pursue natural sciences. However, I have always kept my passion for languages; besides English, I speak German, French and Serbian/Croatian, a bit of Russian and am currently learning Arabic. I enjoy literature, exploring genetics and long hikes in the mountains.
Me as a Teacher
I taught Slovenian in smaller groups as well gave 1:1 lessons. My students mostly had a specific reason for learning Slovenian, either family or work-related, so I always adapted my program to their needs. I appreciate constructive suggestions and feedback; I always strive to improve my approaches. It is crucial that I have a respectful and pleasant relationship with my students and I make sure they feel comfortable and can grasp the contents at their own pace.
My lessons & teaching style
Since Slovenian can be a difficult language for most people without a background in Slavic languages, I adapt my techniques depending on what your mother tongue is. I include other types of media and online materials that help you make better notes or simply follow better. Depending on your wishes, I can provide homework/additional materials and suggestions which you can dive deeper into.

Lessons with Val are great. I like the individual approach. The lessons are interesting and useful. Val also goes beyond the language itself and shares the Slovenian culture mysteries. Recommendations!
