Teaching Approach:
I provide lessons via Teams, providing an efficient platform for language learning. This allows for vital interaction between student and tutor, enabling instant written and spoken feedback. Teams sessions are less stressful and more relaxed than in-person meetings, facilitating verbal and written communication interchangeably. This natural approach aids in language absorption, making lessons intense yet effective for rapid Norwegian language acquisition.

I believe that anyone can master Norwegian and I prioritise fostering an environment where learners actively engage with the language, steering clear of intimidating grammatical rules. Rather than providing direct answers, I ask questions to promote independent learning, empowering students to uncover solutions through methodical thinking. This approach enhances autonomy and facilitates organic language comprehension.

If you have a particular topic such as music, TV shows, films, books, sports or academic topics you would like to focus on, I am more than happy to tailor your lessons around your interests. Often times this can motivate students to learn the language faster.

Teaching Experience:
Since 2015, I've taught Norwegian to individuals of diverse ages and backgrounds. This includes CEOs transitioning to roles in Norway-based companies, students relocating to study in Norway, skilled workers preparing for Norskprøven exams (A1-C2 level), as well as individuals with Norwegian partners and retirees seeking to keep their minds active.

I offer a risk-free, complimentary lesson in Norwegian, without any obligation to sign up. I guarantee that you'll develop an affinity for this unique and melodic language.
