About Me
italki teacher since May 24, 2021
InterestsMusicWritingFilms & TV Series
Hello! My name is Zlatko. I have worked in a high school as a Serbian teacher for the past four years. I have two big passions, music and literature. I play many instruments but my favorite one is the bass guitar. I can listen to music for the whole day - every day, and my favorite genres are jazz and rock. Also, I like to read a lot, especially poetry. Besides that, I am interested in different cultures, their sense of humor, and specific food.
Me as a Teacher
I have experience in teaching Serbian as a native language and as a foreign language as well. I had students from different countries like Australia, Libya, Greece, Holland, the USA, and many others.
My lessons & teaching style
Teaching for me is a two-way street, it is an exchange of experience from different cultures. That is why I think the best way to learn a language is to talk about things you care about. Also, it's important to get the feeling of how to connect words and phrases with situations of their use. That is why I tend to give many examples of speech in everyday life. Also, in between grammar lessons, we can always talk about Serbian culture, art, and history, which is, I believe, a more natural and interesting way for you to learn many new words and how to use them.

Zlatko is awesome! He speaks at a level that I can understand and is very patient when I inevitably make mistakes while talking. I highly recommend him as a Serbian teacher.

Let’s just say I wouldn’t have an 8 am class with many other teachers. It says something that I’d wake up that early to have a lesson. 😂

A great professor all around. We can discuss grammar and also practice casual conversation, which is a super relaxing/chill environment!

Zlatko is such a great Serbian teacher. I’m so glad I’m able to have a weekly class with him (and talk about cats)! 🐈

I highly recommend Zlatko as a Serbian teacher. He speaks in Serbian to you at a level which you can understand, translates when you need some clarification, and always has exercises and subjects to do/talk about at-hand!!
