About me - English
Hi there! My name is Lina, and I'm a Chinese language teacher, translator and language consultant. I'm also an avid language learner, and apart from speaking Croatian, which is my mother tongue, I'm also fluent in English, Chinese and French, and I have some basic knowledge of German and Japanese. I have been teaching languages professionally since 2008, mostly in higher education, and I've been teaching Croatian and Chinese online since 2014. In my lessons I offer a customized learning experience which helps learners learn their chosen language quickly. I invite you to realize your language potential and join my lessons!
Qualifications & Experience
I'm highly experienced language specialist with natural ability for helping guide learners through complex language learning.
My initial interest in languages started early on in high school when I discovered and started learning English, French and German language.
Fast-forward a few years and I was picking linguistics as my major at university with the main focus on Chinese language.
After graduation I continued my education, and I have earned my Master's Degree in literature.
Teaching Approach
Since each person has different reasons and goals for learning a new language, in my lessons I focus on tailoring individual language learning to suit the needs and requirements of the learner. In my lessons I help you create realistic language learning goals, and guide you through your language learning process.
