Level Up Croatian
A2 Upper Elementary — for learners who understand but freeze when it's time to speakYou have been studying Croatian for months, perhaps years. You understand more than you can say. You recognise the music of it — the rhythm of a sentence, the warmth behind a phrase — but the moment someone speaks to you directly, something closes.
That gap between understanding and speaking is not a mystery. It is a specific problem with a specific solution: you need daily contact with the living language, in small enough doses that they actually happen, structured enough that they actually build. One new lesson arrives every day. You never fall behind — you simply keep going.
You already have a relationship with Croatian.
This membership was not built for people starting from zero. It was built for people who already carry some Croatian — in the house they grew up in, in a family they married into, in the country they chose to live in — and need a structured daily practice to finally close the gap between what they understand and what they can say.
You are a complete beginner with no exposure to Croatian — phrases like Gdje si bila jučer? or Koliko košta ovo? mean nothing to you yet. Start with the Croatian Entry Point instead, then come back. Equally, if you can already debate politics or tell detailed stories in Croatian, you belong in the Croatian Nexus.
Fifteen minutes a day. Every day. Built to actually work.
Each lesson is designed for the adult learner who has a life — short enough to do consistently, deep enough to actually move the needle. You work at your own pace. The programme holds the shape.
One new lesson arrives every day — so you are always moving forward, never overwhelmed. Access continues for as long as your membership is active. If you cancel, access ends immediately. If you rejoin later, you start from the beginning.
Start today →Structured weekly themes — family, food, emergencies, daily life — so every lesson teaches Croatian you will actually use.
Train your ear and your mouth together. Real Croatian rhythms, real Croatian sounds — not the flattened version that language apps produce.
Grammar taught through proverbs, folk tales, and the conversations Croatians actually have. Rules that stick because they mean something.
Ask questions, get answers, stay accountable — 24/7 access to the client portal community for as long as you are a member.
The Mindset Masterclass, the Method Blueprint, and the Essential Grammar PDF — available the moment you join.
Unlock additional courses at 3, 9, and 12 months. The longer you stay, the more the membership gives back.
Consistency deserves to be rewarded.
Most language memberships give you everything upfront and hope you stay. This one is designed differently. The longer you commit to the daily practice, the more it unlocks — because the students who stay are the ones who are actually building something.
Food, recipes, market banter, café culture. The vocabulary of daily Croatian life — the warmest corner of the language.
A storytelling journey through Croatian folklore and landscape — language learning through the stories that shaped the culture.
Because a year of daily practice deserves something worth waiting for.
From the people who stayed.
As someone who learned their second language as an adult, I really appreciate the learning-from-a-local approach. You get the expertise of a professor and the warmth of someone who genuinely loves what she teaches. I would recommend Tihana to anyone.
Hannah VoughtWhat I liked best was the structure and weekly format with lessons. The culture sessions were all amazing. What I got out of it was a sense of belonging to a wonderful group.
Olga FeltonTihana is passionate in her love for the Croatian language and culture. Throughout the course, she encouraged all her learners to keep trying, not to worry about mistakes, and to enjoy the process.
Michael PanicEverything was explained clearly. Tihana built in lots of practice time — the pronunciation, the regional dialects, the proper tenses. She was very welcoming and accommodating throughout.

This membership moves at a pace that assumes some foundation. Before you join, it's worth taking a moment to check that you're in the right place — not because the bar is high, but because I want you to thrive here, not struggle.
You are likely ready if the phrases below feel familiar — not perfectly understood, but recognisable.
If you're unsure, take the short quiz. It takes two minutes and will tell you exactly where you stand — and whether Level Up Croatian is the right next step for you right now.

Croatian doesn't live in textbooks. It lives in the way a fisherman ties his boat, how a grandmother calls from a window, the way friends slow down over a second coffee. This is the Croatian you are learning toward.
Fifteen minutes a day is enough. If they're the right fifteen minutes.
The gap between understanding Croatian and speaking it does not close by itself. It closes through daily contact with the living language — through rhythm, through repetition, through the particular satisfaction of a sentence that finally comes out right.
For €27 a month, that is what this membership offers. Not a promise of fluency by Friday. A genuine, structured path — one lesson a day, at your pace — toward the Croatian that is already somewhere inside you.
