| Description |
My interest in learning Croatian is as follows:
I am married to a man who was born and raised in Vojvodina. We met in graduate school in the US so we have always spoken
English together. Our children are 8 and 10 and we have just begun spending time in Dubrovnik (we went for the first time last summer). Our purpose is not just to be in a beautiful place but to share the cultural heritage with the children. We are returning to Dubrovnik for three weeks this summer and I would like to be more comfortable in the language. My-laws live near us so I have been exposed to the language over the last 10 years, but have not spoken (in gatherings we speak English). Since our return last summer, I have been studying Croatian with Pimler tapes, but vocabulary and sense of grammar are lacking.
H ere is my language background (this should give you an idea of my ability to learn another language:
I am multilinual in French, English, Swedish and German. I can muddle through in Italian. Swedish, German, and English were all spoken around the house in my childhood. I have a M.A. in TESOL and a PhD in linguistic anthropology. I have also studied Latin. Briefly in graduate school I studied Indonesian. This is the first Slavic lanuage I have tried to learn.
My goal:
I need improvement in all areas of Croatian. I am looking for very serious and dedicated teacher with specific training in foreign language teaching. I am a serious and dedicated student. I would like to spend one hour every day with a teacher and will continue studying with tapes in the car. I hope to get a good grip of the grammar and do some serious pronunciation drills. When we return to Dubrovnik this summer I will look for a class or teacher to continue (July 20-August 8) my studies, about 1 hour per day.
Thank you for your interest.
