Swedish - Learn it from the beginning, or brush up on your knowledge!
From 59.79 C$ /h
I'm a native Swedish speaker born and situated in Stockholm. I offer lessons remotely to anyone interested in learning Swedish.
Swedish is considered one of the easiest languages for an English speaker to learn, with a lot of vocabulary and grammar in common. Swedish is also the most useful Scandinavian language to learn. Knowing some Swedish can help you understand Norwegian and Danish to a great extent. Swedish is commonly understood in Finland as well.

About Me
My name is Marika and I'm born and raised in Sweden. I have lived in Stockholm all my life. I'm a former freelance web designer. Now I'm a digital artist. I occasionally get commissioned to paint portraits. I have always loved drawing and painting.
I guess I could describe myself as a language nerd! From a young age, I was fascinated with the concept of being able to understand foreign languages and read foreign alphabets. I dived into the pool of secret languages, sign language, and constructed fictional languages.
The fictional languages really clicked with me being a fan of Sci-Fi and Fantasy.
I have studied Spanish and Russian in school. It's not easy to maintain those since I don't practice them in daily life, but I enjoy watching Spanish movies. I have self-taught myself some Japanese, which I actually put to use when I visited Tokyo.
Learning Latin at university has certainly opened up a new world to me.
Norwegian comes rather naturally to me not only because my grandparents were from Norway, but because it's similar to Swedish.
Linguistics is something that I truly love. It's very interesting and important to realize that as you learn a language, not only do you learn new grammar and vocabulary, you also learn to work your speech organs in a new way.
When I teach others I am very systematic and I find it really important to find out which memorizing technique works best for every student. Mix that with a bit of fun and we're good to go!
