Student referencesChris Henry - AmericanI recently moved to Bulgaria with my wife and 2 year old daughter. My only exposure to Bulgarian language before coming was listening to my wife talk with her friends and family members. I couldn't understand a thing.Six months ago I met Iliyana and shortly thereafter began lessons to learn Bulgarian. Having never desired to learn a language and with little experience in doing so I didn't know what to expect. Before meeting Iliyana I had purchased textbooks and was trying to explore the language on my own. It was very challenging. At the first lesson, Iliyana broke down the Cyrillic alphabet for me in an easy and concise manner; before an hour was over I was able to read and write Bulgarian......

She has a wonderful rapport with people of all ages. Her ability to communicate with her students and her talent at teaching multi- dimensional concepts are both truly superior. One of the main characteristics that someone first notices in Iliyana is her unique sense of humor. I was never bored during our lessons as she has the ability to make them interesting and recreative. This is extremely difficult, especially when someone works with people from various cultures........Read the whole reference Giouli Kailari - GreekMs. Dimitrova was always prepared for her lessons with detailed lesson plans that tied each activity into the state standards.We were always excited to learn and the activities she planned were interactive and focused on curriculum standards.She has excellent written and verbal communication skills and a huge knowledge! I really enjoyed the lessons with her.......Read the whole reference Petya Petkova - BulgarianMrs. Dimitrova was my lecturer in Bulgarian (language culture) and her method of teaching is amazing. She has the ability to attract the attention of her students every time and to present a lesson as easy to understand and master as possible.So the classes pass off imperceptibly and at the same time so pleasantly. In my opinion, a lecturer needs to be not only a teacher, but a friend, too. For being a teaching useful and successful, the fellowship between a teacher and a student is one of the most important things. I like very much her quality to be one of us....... Read the whole reference Reni Petkova - BulgarianIliyana's lectures do not only include the boring, dull and annoying facts written in the dusty grammar books, which we tend to hide inside the basement. Her lessons exemplify the beauty and elegance of the language, the great diversity of its words and phrases. She herself adores the Bulgarian language, one can easily notice that. What better than being taught by a person who himself worships the subject he deals with? Iliyana teaches Bulgarian with love and joy. And this joyful spirit turns her work and simultaneously the efforts of the students into a real pleasure. The best teachers are those who find joy in their discipline, those who manage to inspire their students. Iliyana never leaves a problem unsolved, a question unanswered, a statement unclear....Read the whole reference |
