The Classes

Beginner I:
This is a class for the student with no prior knowledge of the language. Focus will be on basic pronunciation, grammar and
communication in typical everyday situations."

Intermediate I:
This class is suitable for students who have already taken Beginners I and Beginners II  or equivalent. Emphasis will be placed on vocabulary expansion, more advanced grammar, and correct pronunciation. Conversations in Swedish will be practiced as much as possible, and weekly homework will be assigned.
 
Upper Intermediate:
This class is suitable for students who have already taken Intermediate II or equivalent. The focus of this class is to improve our speaking and listening skills. We want to be able to express ourselves in more complex sentences and through movies, songs and more advanced texts, we also learn new vocabulary and more advanced grammar.
