About me - English
Hello!
My name is Milica, and I am a Norwegian tutor with years of experience.
I have worked as a middle school teacher in Oslo for several years, where I taught Norwegian as a mother tongue, English as a second language, religion, art, and social sciences. I also worked at two different language schools in Oslo, where I taught Norwegian as a foreign language. My students there were immigrants from countries all over the world. They all taught me about their cultures and languages, so I can relate to any kind of background my students come from. Currently I work as a translator for Scandinavian languages (Norwegian, Swedish and Danish.) I speak Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Norwegian, Swedish, English, some German, a little Spanish, a little French, and a little Russian. I am passionate about languages, literature, history and culture.
In my spare time I like to write, paint, and sew. I try to do yoga every day.

My teaching approach is supportive, motivating, and positive, and I accommodate your wishes and needs for the certain aspects of the language as well as its vocabulary. I have high ambitions for my students. I want you to explore the language you are learning by using it often, actively, and willingly. I prepare individual materials for the lessons (books, grammar exercises, listening exercises, vocabulary, articles). It is always posible to structure the lesson the way you want it. I share a google document with my students following the lesson, where you can have an overview of the grammar, vocabulary, and phrases we covered in the class. Additionally, this document can include homework.
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, and I am looking forward to meeting you in class! :)
