The Serbian language course held weekly at the Norwegian Embassy has been a great learning experience for the embassy staff – not only language wise but also cultural wise.
Only two of us completed the whole course but that was not due to the quality of the teaching but for other reasons such as tight work schedules and maternity leave. We have not attended any other Serbian language classes, so we have no comparison, but the content and progression of this course seems very sound and logical. Our teacher, Dunja, is besides a competent lecturer also a very nice and pleasant person to be in the class with. We can absolutely recommend this course to anybody wanting to learn about the Serbian language and culture.

Learning Serbian at first seemed quite a reach at my age, especially through an online course and in a very hectic working schedule. Serbian Corner and my teacher Dunja made it so easy. Never felt uncomfortable or pressured before and after the classes. Learning Serbian has turned out to be a joy for me. Beside the language, Dunja is always ready to help me better understand the culture and life in Serbia.

Недавно сам похађао курс „Konverzacijski kurs B1+“. Курс је био подељен по темама, сваки час је имао нову тему, на пример „серије“ или „код доктора“. Био је користан за проширење речника, али би било одлично када би теме биле актуелније, на пример „у министарству за странце“.6

Kurs je bio veseo i zabavan. Najzanimljivija stvar na kursu su, naravno, razgovori uživo, šale i diskusije o zanimljivim temama – i sve to ne onlajn, vec‌ lično. Kurs mi je dao motivaciju da se vratim gramatici i naučim vremena i padeže – haha!

I highly recommend the B1 communication course of Serbian Corner school to those, who already speak Serbian at some level, have studied grammar, but are afraid to speak. Dunja is an excellent teacher, and the small group classes were really useful. We were also able to participate in choosing the topics, so we practiced communication necessary for our everyday Serbian life. Our vocabulary improved, including slang. We received great materials on every class. I also found it useful that the classes were live. I will definitely continue next semester.

Konverzacijski kurs B1. Volim naš kurs jako! Bilo je veselo i korisno za mene, mislim počela da pričam slobodno zbog njega (i naših časova). Sve teme (kao socijalne mreže, kod lekara, itd) bile su vrlo korisne, koristila sam leksiku u životu često. I bilo je lako zbog toga šta imamo super društvo ❤️ nadam se da nastavimo u septembru!

My son is nine years old, and he has some passive knowledge of Serbian, but he needs more practice to start speaking the language. He lives in an English-speaking household; his father doesn’t speak English, so the only person he can talk to in Serbian is me, which is insufficient to learn the language proficiently. Another disadvantage is that my son was diagnosed with childhood apraxia when he was two and needed speech therapy to learn how to speak English. Apraxia made it difficult for him to pronounce the Serbian sounds. We are delighted to have found Aleksandra Milisavljevic and her online school “Serbian Corner” to support our family’s goal to raise our son to be bilingual. His teacher, Vesna, has been working with him wonderfully, with a lot of patience, humor, and understanding of the difficulties in pronouncing different sounds of the Serbian language. What I like the most is how cooperative and inclusive Serbian Corner is in accepting and initiating parental input on the best teaching approaches. They listen to the parents regarding their children’s interests and learning experiences, which is important considering the cultural differences between Serbian and American school systems, for example. Mateja has been making a lot of progress, and, to my great delight, he started saying complete sentences in Serbian when working with Vesna. I know that with more time and additional reinforcement at home, he will converse with me in Serbian daily. That would be a dream come true, and I will be forever grateful to the American Corner, Aleksandra, and Vesna.

We have had a great experience with Serbian Corner school. Alexandra has been working with three of my children remotely for a couple of years now on a regular basis. The children started without any meaningful knowledge of Serbian and are advancing nicely. Alexandra has extensive teaching experience, and she knows ahead of time what material will take a longer time to acquire and requires more effort. She comes up with with ways to diversity the material and make it more interesting with various interactive tools and games. She continues to look for new tools to improve the teaching impact and interesting for children. I would strongly recommend Alexandra and S Corner language school.

Alexandra is very professional in the way she conducts the lesson. I really liked how she works. The whole learning course was like a very nice journey. This is because Alexandra is very organized and flexible teacher:well-prepared material including todays very popular gamification, very interactive lessons and at the same time – no time to rest or to skip something. No doubts, you cannot escape learning and improving with this teacher and with S Corner school.

I studied Serbian with Aleksandra for over two years while I was living in Belgrade and had some online lessons while I was in the UK. I learned a lot and my knowledge of Serbian increased rapidly. I came to revel in the intricacies of Serbian grammar and always looked forward to my lessons. Aleksandra was a delightful teacher. In fact I hope to resume lessons with her at some stage. I would recommend her to anyone who would like to improve their Serbian.

Aleksandra has been working with me and my son in private lessons. She is an amazing teacher and can really tailor the lessons to exactly what we need. She brings a lot of energy and encouragement to our sessions and is very enjoyable to work with. She is also very good at breaking down the intricacies of the grammar to a very practical and useful approach. The podcasts and videos she creates are also a very helpful addition to her lessons. I would highly recommend her to anyone learning Serbian, from beginners to those looking to improve competence.

DearAleksandra,
it is great to think back to the 3 weeks personal crash course in serbian language. I want to thank you so much for your competence, positive energy and professional training with patience! It was a very intensive time full-day-training and gave me catapult start to the language of my new family.

Alexandra is a wonderful teacher. 

She is always ready to adjust the lessons to make learning interesting. I look forward to every lesson. 

We practice speaking and grammar, which was important to me. We often talk about interesting topics, news, movies, art, various common interests. I try to switch to English, she softly and persistently switches me back to Serbian. 

Of course, we also learn a lot of grammar. She always presents the rules of academic grammar in detail, which is not always helpful for learning the rules, but helps to understand the complexity of the Serbian language. But in addition to various textbooks, Alexandra creates her own interesting and fun exercises. These exercises help me a lot to remember the rules of using cases and tenses in an unobtrusive way. 

It is especially important for me because I quickly get bored of monotonous classes with primitive texts. 

I have successfully cooperated with S corner language school and its proprietor Ms.

Aleksandra in the field of Serbian language. I am pleased to confirm that the

services have been carried out in a very professional manner and in compliance with

all contractual terms. The quality of the service provided has been perceived as

excellent. Therefore, I strongly recommend Serbian corner and Ms. Aleksandra as a

reliable partner.

I’m enjoying individual Serbian language classes with Aleksandra who is fun to

work with but serious when needed. Her grammar explanations are made to be

easy to understand and remember – and they are!

She follows a flexible approach to tailor the learning sessions to individual level,

needs and defined learning targets. Her online sessions are very interactive and

with a broad variety of tools being used (chat, on screen board, tutorial videos,

games / learning by playing) also for home work and to practice/self-learning. I

like her approach to make me compete with myself… and recommended her to

my colleagues.

I am happy to confirm that Ms. Milisavlijevic is a very competent and pleasant

teacher. She manages, with a good mixture of encouragement, motivation and

demand, to win her students for learning the Serbian language.

It is therefore very pleasant to work with her and I can heartily recommend

everyone to take Serbian lessons with her.

I have known Ms Aleksandra Milisavljevic since 2016. For a period of two years

she taught me Serbian, and her excellent communication skills, experience in the

linguistic field, purposeful methodological guidelines and individual approach

during the training significantly helped me achieve high results in mastering a

foreign language in a short period of time.

The professional commitment of Ms Milisavljevic in the field of education has a

positive impact on the ability of students to adapt to the unfamiliar language

environment and get acquainted with local customs, traditions and culture.

Aleksandra has a strong desire for self-improvement and motivation for

academic activity, while she enjoys a very good reputation among the

representatives of the diplomatic corps in the Republic of Serbia.

In my opinion, Ms. Milisavljevic has the necessary set of knowledge and skills,

which are a good basis for success in the implementation of her future ideas and

projects.

Since January 2021, I have been attending individual lessons in Serbian with Ms.

Milisavlijevic several times a week. The aim of these language lessons is to

develop Serbian language skills in order to better cope with my daily life in

Belgrade.

From 2018-2020, I received professional Serbian language training from Ms.

Aleksandra, Serbian Language teacher. I’m pleased to confirm that the services

have been carried out in a professional manner and in compliance with all

contractual terms. She is very pleasant to deal with and very flexible to my needs

as a student. The quality of the service provided has been excellent. Therefore, I

strongly recommend her as a reliable partner.
