Hi there! My name's Dimitar. I'm a language lover, and my biggest passion is learning and teaching languages. I'm a native Bulgarian speaker, proficient in English and French. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Scandinavian studies with a minor in Dutch, and I have a conversational level in Spanish and Russian.
In my free time, I volunteer in a non-profit organization called ESN, where I help Erasmus students have an unforgettable semester in Bulgaria!
My other interests include traveling, culture, fitness, nutrition, history, geography, and geopolitics. Oh, and I love Eurovision! And I have a cute cat.Me as a Teacher

I try my best to create a relaxed and friendly learning atmosphere. Lessons are tailored to the needs of the student, and I am very flexible when it comes to the lesson structure. We can have very "traditional" lessons using a textbook, working on dialogues and grammar, or we can have relaxed conversations where you acquire vocabulary and grammar more naturally!
- If you decide to book a lesson with me, please let me know what your level is and what you'd like us to work on.
- If you don't show up 15 minutes into the lesson without warning me, I consider it as a no-show, and you would still need to pay for the session.
- Lessons are 55 minutes long.
Thank you!My teaching material

Taking lessons since over a year now. Never a dull moment, engaging lessons and I always feel encouraged to learn and speak more. Super grateful to have found such a dedicated and positive, fun teacher. Looking forward to another year of lessons :)

I have been learning Bulgarian with Dimitar for three years. Thanks to the competence of the teacher, I have reached from A2 to B2\С1 level. I can now read any texts, watch films, listen to difficult lectures, conference papers etc. I communicate freely on any subject. Why did I stay for 3 years with this teacher? Because he:
- is prepared for class (maybe this should be obvious, but I have had many language teachers and this is not always the case).
- adapts to the needs of the student and selects materials with this in mind. He is flexible and does not push only one line e.g. by teaching from a boring textbook detached from the linguistic purity.
- uses a variety of methods, techniques and didactic means
- is punctual and conducts a lively lesson
- is familiar with several foreign languages and thus knows how to work on errors due to language transfer
- enjoys his mother tongue and the culture of his country and knows how to interest a foreigner in his country and language!

Dimitir is very kind and a good listener. He’s extremely knowledgable, encouraging and good at explaining things! I can see myself progressing well if I continue with Dimitir as my tutor!

Dimitar is an expert language teacher and I feel lucky to have found him. He is adept at carrying on improvisational conversations that maintain about 80% known vs 20% new material and also has prepared many well-design lessons, which he attentively, patiently, and carefully guides me through. He also provides homework includes pre-made flash cards with personalized audio recordings to ensure I have more than sufficient reference and training material for my own practice time.
