I have worked fulltime, for the past 15 years, as a language teacher and translator.
I was born in Sweden, to Danish parents and live with an Englishman.
I teach said three languages to both private and commercial clients, placing great emphasis on client needs and abilities. Cultural knowledge is also very important to the understanding of any language and is therefore included in all courses.
The dreaded grammar is the fundamental building block to a language, but I try to make it as fun as possible.......as well as the homework and self-study.

Would you like to start learning Swedish, but find it difficult to know how or where to start? Do you find it boring and overwhelming to learn grammar rules and they just can’t seem to stick to your brain? Do you feel it’s challenging and you’re lacking the confidence to open your mouth to speak? Have you tried to speak, but are frustrated and demotivated that others don’t seem to understand what you are saying? Or you have a basic language foundation, but seem to get stuck in a midway and need a breakthrough?

My name is Tia and I specialise in helping you set up a solid foundation of your Swedish learning journey; helping you establish a positive connection with the language right from the get-go.

The method and the techniques that I’m about to show you in this course will help you shorten your learning curve, help you save a massive amount of time from wandering in the desert yourself like I did, I don’t want you to spend years walking on the same path, because now you can turn those years into days.
It also helps you overcome all the above-mentioned pitfalls of learning a new language; It effectively helps you build up a solid language structure by you mastering the normally boring grammar rules in a fun way; it boosts your motivation of your continuous learning journey; it supports you to build up your confidence to speak the language in a short amount of time by applying the method in the lessons and independently outside the class.

The extra benefits of my course is that you are learning the language in a relaxed environment without straining. It all happens naturally and you’ll be surprised and delighted that you’ve had the inner language talent already and now you allow it to come out to show its magic!

Hey!

My name is Maria, I am Swedish and have been a language trainer with my own language school for 20 years, formerly in Munich and now online from Sweden.

With my teaching methodology, you learn Swedish in a practice-oriented manner. After a short time you will acquire a lively vocabulary, a great understanding of the structure of the language and, above all, the desire and confidence to speak.

I am very committed to my students and I find nothing better than when they take the next private or professional step through my courses.

Getting to know a new language is something very special. It enriches life, opens up undreamt-of possibilities, builds bridges and welds people together.

This is my experience and I would like to pass it on to all my students.

Do you want to speak Swedish, but you have noone to talk to? No worries, I'm here to help you :) We meet for either 30 or 60 minutes and only talk Swedish with each other. This is purely a conversation class, so no grammar will be taught and there won't be any homework.

My name is Iryna.
Teacher who love to share knowledge and explore process of learning Swedish in different conversational situations from different perspectives and adapt material to students language goals. Let me tell you more about my method in which I try to adapt the material to needs and abilities of my different - aged students and give them an exellent results in a pretty short period. Students learning goals become my priority. Using authentical material and well - structured topics with complete lexicology I help my students understand and develop Swedish in an interesting way-. We learn new words and phrases, listen to audio files and work with pronunciation issues with the help of exciting interactive exercises from Hejsvenska, Wordwall and Kahoot. After the lesson I send a personal plan in which I share students strong sides and skills which needs to put extra attention to achieve learning goal in a fast and efficient way. As well at the lessons I listen to my students and motivate them by sending interesting and useful material and content which includes useful phrases and words. We discuss at the lesson family, work, travelling, cooking, healthy lifestyle, books, sport, poddcasts and films. That makes lessons alive and exciting!

Learning platforms ( undervisning sker på distans ) : WhatsApp, Skype, Zoom, Google teams osv.

I am a native speaker who enjoys teaching formally. I love teaching because it can help others improve their skills. It gives me joy and excitement meeting learners form all over the world. I am interested in many different topics, and I am happy to focus on my learners goals. As a Swedish teacher I like to teach people to look at words notes = melody and sentences chords = harmony in an inseparable way. While pursuing my education, I also worked part-time as an SAS teacher. This experience taught me how to manage larger class sizes, work with diverse learners of various skills, levels and backgrounds and use technology to encourage learning and retention., I have more than fifteen thousand hours of teaching experience online and in different private language schools. I will be providing material and audio files for every class. My methodology is deeply rooted in the language books from the Department of Linguistics and Philology at Uppsala University.

I believe in adapting to each student’s pace while pushing them to grow.
