Welcome to Cambridge Exam Coach podcast, where we talk about all things learning and teaching English, and specifically about Cambridge exam preparation. 

My name is Kristian and today I am going to talk with someone who, according to his LinkedIn profile, is a “Test Centre Manager at LanguageCert”. 

He is a highly-passionate, Cambridge CELTA qualified English teacher with over 17 years of teaching experience. Currently leading a 15-strong team to bring English and students together in his hometown of Zvolen. Furthermore,  he’s also prolific online, mainly on Instagram. 

Let me welcome from the beautiful town of Zvolen in Slovakia, Vlado Dolinec!
