Tests? Let's Play Instead.

This page used to be a wall of quizzes. It isn't any more — and that's on purpose.

After years of teaching Serbian, I've stopped believing in the test as a teaching tool. A test tells you what you got wrong once it's already too late to matter, and it makes most people tense at exactly the moment they most need to be relaxed. Language doesn't stick under pressure. It sticks through repetition you actually want to repeat.

So on this site, testing looks like playing. Every game below drills something specific — gender agreement, possessives, numbers, formal versus informal address — but you meet it as a score to beat rather than a grade to fear. You'll replay a game you enjoy twenty times without noticing. Nobody has ever done that with a worksheet.

Play a round or two, then go and read something in Serbian. That's the whole method: igra, pa upotreba — play, then use.
