Hi again! Let me introduce myself. As you already know, I’m Nemanya D. Milinovic, a teacher, a translator and an educator based in Belgrade (Central European Time Zone).

As a young graduate I participated in a number of projects revolving around human and minority rights, as well as social inclusion. I was also involved in the reconciliation process between young people in the region, delivering presentations at various academic institutions. I used to work and teach in Italy, Russia and China. I’ve taught Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian and English offline and online since 2012.

My mother tongue is Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian or let’s call it BCS thanks to my Balkan origin from Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia and Serbia. I used to learn Chinese, Korean, Hebrew, Ancient Greek, Latin, Old-Slavonic, Church-Slavonic, and Serbian-Slavonic. In addition, I’m fluent in English, Italian and Russian. If you want me to be your teacher, take a look at my biography below. My working CV is on LinkedIn, and my non-formal education CV is available here.
