    About Me

    Hi everyone! Hola a todos! Hej allihopa! Привет всем!
    As an experienced expat and teacher who has lived and worked in USA, Sweden, Russia, China and Spain, I am a strong believer that language is a vehicle for communication, and just like driving any vehicle is a SKILL that has to be learned by "using" that vehicle, the same goes for language learning: merely studying about the language has never helped anyone to actually speak that language.

    As a friendly, patient and experienced teacher, my lessons focus on developing communication skills in English, Spanish, Swedish or Russian for adult travelers or immigrants/expats. I specialize in interview preparation, overcoming language barriers, identifying and solving your specific language problems, as well as helping you use the language you already know—I have had first-hand experience dealing and working with all these myself and with my clients.

    You are going to be able to use the language from the first lesson.

    In our first lesson we get to know each other as a learner and as a teacher. It's very important for you to share your expectations about how you see our language classes and what language outcomes you are looking to achieve. After that I will give you my suggestions that will help you to accomplish your learning goals according to your specific needs and situation as no learner is the same.

    Sebastian
    Top-Rated Swedish course!
    I am a Swedish native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides Swedish, I speak English, German, Spanish, French, and Italian. Having learned 6 languages myself, I am 100% convinced that I will successfully teach you Swedish(in a fun and relaxed manner)! I have been teaching since 2018 and am currently one of the most-reviewed teachers on this platform. I encourage you to pause here and have a look at my reviews. I am confident that you too will have a similar view after having had some classes with me. On top of teaching here on Apprentus, I have taught offline group classes for the Volksuniversiteit The Hague (A Volksuniversiteit (litt. folk university) is an institute for non-formal adult education in the Netherlands). I also taught for and underwent training with Berlitz, which is one of, if not THE largest language school in the world, operating in over 70 countries and 500+ locations. I am 33 years old, have an honours degree from Leiden University, The Hague, am calm, encouraging, and, most importantly, PATIENT. My main objective in classes is to make the student feel relaxed and at ease. I encourage you to speak without fear of making mistakes. In fact, I celebrate making mistakes. "Why?", you may ask. Well, making mistakes means that you are leaving your comfort zone. You are trying something that you are not already skilled at. You don't choose the easy path! People who never make mistakes are stagnant. Therefore, making mistakes should be CELEBRATED instead of shunned! So, good on you for mispronouncing "Nachmittag (Afternoon)", or using the wrong grammar when making a sentence! Here, let me help you get it right this time! :) Do you already have Swedish knowledge? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design classes that meet your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can hold presentations about topics of your interests or topics that I provide, we can discuss current events, hold debates, you can write news-paper article summaries, or we deep dive into advanced grammar. Whatever it is that you enjoy and need: We can do it together. All my classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Unless you're a very advanced student, we will work with learning materials created by some of the best publishers for language learning in Sweden. These materials serve as a red thread for our course that introduces new words, grammar, and exercises in a good pace and interesting manner which keeps you engaged and motivated. Furthermore, I show you swedish food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level! Another important factor for me is having a personal connection. Unless you prefer to "stick to business", which is fine as well, we typically start our classes by talking about how the weekend or preceding weekdays have been. I don't see my students as a resource to be extracted, but as people for whom I develop a genuine interest. Over the course of time, we both know what is going on in our respective lives and update each other about small or big life events. Having taught many students for multiple years, I can gladly say that I have made real friends thanks to our classes, some of which I even have met in real life. I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages! So what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to book an initial lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn about you, your needs and wishes, which will allow us to design the optimal course for you. See you soon! Ses snart! Sebastian

    Swedish, Danish and English courses from beginner to business.
    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.

    Learn Swedish in an effective way! Make grammar learning fun!
    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!

    Hej! Would you like to learn to speak basic Swedish? Order your beer or coffee and do other small talking? For more than 10 years I've been living in Sweden where I've been teaching languages (Italian and French and Dutch) to Swedish people. Would you like to start? Du är välkommen! Pauline

    Christian
    Swedish Language for Beginners or English for the Advanced
    Learn Swedish from the ground up from a native English speaker. Having studied Swedish at Uppsala University as well as numerous language courses at a prominent university in the USA, I will take the necessary steps and short cuts to getting you comfortable in speaking the Swedish language on practical and business levels. Let's make it simple, fun and useful. Our learning correspondence will likewise include the ins n' outs of dealing with Swedish culture, history and business practices.

    Maria
    Learn Swedish quickly and practically online!
    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.

    Cours de suédois langue étrangère, débutants et pré-intermédiaires
    Genevoise d’origine, enseignant le français et l’anglais depuis plus de 10 ans, l’enseignement du suédois est venu s’ajouter a mes cours il y a quelques années. Ma passion pour cette langue et sa culture et mes nombreuses années passées dans ce pays en l’étudiant intensivement m’ont décidé à en faire mon objectif principal, l’enseignement du Suédois à des francophones souhaitant une première approche de la langue. La méthode est 100% personnalisée et dépends des objectifs de chacun. Les cours en ligne ou face à face se concentrent sur l’oral avant tout, entre coupés de points grammaire afin que l’élève comprenne la structure de la langue. Des ressources additionnelles sont également données à l’élève tels que des podcasts, exercices à faire à la maison si souhaité, etc. La clef du succès est la répétition.

    Learn Swedish in a fun way with a native teacher, online or 1-to-1
    I am an enthusiastic language nerd and I have been working full time teaching Swedish since 2011. I offer tailored lessons at all levels, personally adapted to suit the needs of every student. The lessons can be online, or 1-to-1 in Malmö, Sweden. I also offer group lessons and lessons at your workplace. I am fluent in Swedish, English and Spanish.

    Alejandro
    Knowledgeable Swedish Tutor with 2 Years of experience. Beginner to Advanced
    Hi! Ingen ko på isen (No cow on the ice), which means that you can learn Swedish, and I can help you! My name is Alejandro, and I'm from the beautiful Scandinavian country of Sweden, and I hope to be able to help you in your learning of my native Swedish, which is in my opinion a very poetic language (which I will be happy to show you!). I am passionate about teaching, and love to see my students grow and acquire new skills. Additionally, I have 2 years of tutoring experience at this point, having had over a dozen students. I offer my students comprehensive knowledge and guidance and prefer to tailor the instruction to their needs and desires, be it work, academia, family, or leisure, hoping to accompany them throughout their learning. Since I am a student of business law, I am capable of providing a tutoring experience fitted specifically to this context. I have a couple of suggestions for course structure, which can of course be discussed and modified according to the student. The focus of the tutoring can be put either on practical ability in writing and speech, with the aim of allowing the student to comprehend and communicate comfortably with natives. Or, alternatively, the focus can be put on attaining a deeper level of fluency, with greater emphasis being put on translation alongside grammatical dissection and literary analysis. Classes can be held in either Swedish or English, as per the student's request and need. If this is intimidating, don't worry, det är lätt som en plätt! (easy as a pancake!) So get to it and I wish you good luck! Good day! / Alejandro.

    Learn Swedish in a fun and creative way through speaking, music and games
    Learn how to speak, write and understand Swedish in a fun and creative way with me. I use various methods for stimulating language learning in different ways. I believe learning a new language is best achieved through a combination of studying grammar and vocabulary as well as through speaking, listening to music, playing games and socializing. In this class we will mainly focus on speaking Swedish and using it in your everyday life.
