Velkommen!


Welcome to my conversational group classes!


You get to speak!

In the conversational classes, the focus is of course on YOU, and the opportunity for you to speak as much Norwegian as possible. My job, then, is to create an environment for you and the others in the group to grow by providing relevant materials, vocabulary, quizzes, grammar explanations, live notes and giving instant feedback when you speak. 


Structure

We will meet on a weekly basis, and in total the course package includes 8 group sessions of 75 minutes each. Having 75-minute sessions enables us to get into depth about the topics we discuss, giving everyone plenty of time to speak. The group size is up to 8 people.


Materials

What you’ll also get when buying the course is one or two pieces of material per lesson, which you can use to prepare for each class. These materials, typically a video, article or an opinion piece, are not large, but they will get you warmed up to the topic. The materials are accompanied by a vocabulary list and a comprehension/vocabulary quiz.
