Self-study is a great way to learn Serbian. Especially if you like flexibility and want to study at your own pace.

But sometimes, you need more than that.

You need speaking practice.

You need feedback.

You need structure.

And sometimes, you simply need a fixed time every week to actually sit down and learn Serbian.

That’s exactly where our Serbian group courses can help.

In a small group of 2–5 students, you’ll practise speaking regularly, follow a clear learning path, and learn together with students at a similar level.

Our July Serbian group courses are now open.

"Čime se baviš?" is one of the most common questions you'll hear when meeting someone new in Serbia!

But how do you answer it correctly?

Let's learn 3 different ways to talk about your profession in Serbian:

1️⃣ Ja sam + profession (using the Nominative case)

2️⃣ Radim kao + profession (using the Nominative case)

3️⃣ Bavim se + field/profession (using the Instrumental case)

❔Čime se ti baviš?
