About me

Hi, my name is Maja (Maya), my native language is Slovenian, and I am a specialist in Slovenian language and literature. I have always been amazed at how words and phrases shape the way we think about ourselves and the world and enjoy sharing this amazement with my students.

I have a degree in Slovenian language and literature from the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana, and have also started a specialisation training for teachers of Slovenian as a second/foreign language.

I have experience teaching languages in group settings, one on one and also online. I have started teaching 25 years ago, though I have not taught exclusively all that time -- I am also a translator and a lexicographer. I use the material provided by Center for Slovene as a Second and Foreign Language to start the lesson and also tailor my lessons to the needs of my students.

Let's embark on a language journey together! :) As a specialist in Slovenian language and literature, I'm here to help you learn to understand the language and communicate in it. Skupaj nama bo uspelo! (Together we can do it! :))

Maja is an outstanding Slovene teacher. She's always well-prepared, making lessons clear and engaging. I highly recommend her to anyone learning Slovene.

Maja is such a fantastic teacher. My Slovene learning is very spotty - I'm good in some areas but also lacking some very basic knowledge! She's been really fantastic at tailoring the lessons to my needs, and I'm looking forward to more lessons with Maja!
