Our Students About Swedish Courses
Kelly, A2 Swedish Course
“Anyone who wants to learn Swedish will find this course to be immensely helpful. It covers a lot of topics that will be useful in everyday conversation and life, includes a variety of exercises for practice, and introduces the basics of grammar that will explain how to phrase sentences properly. The content is engaging and the teacher is clear and concise in their explanations and translations. There is also lots of vocabulary to work with! I finished this course feeling like I’m one step closer to understanding how the language works and I feel more confident in my ability to speak Swedish.”
Kaitlyn, A1 Swedish Course
“I like that the videos are always accessible, so I can rewatch them again later this week. It will help consolidate what I have learned and it will also help me with pronunciation. I’m really happy I can now introduce myself in Swedish 🙂 “
Martina, A1 Swedish Course
“One thing that I really loved about your videos is that you also highlighted different pronunciations and that’s something quite important to become aware of when you’re learning a new language. So thank you so much! “
Irina Helena, A1 Swedish Course
“Like most people I thought the A1 course was just about introducing yourself and saying hello but this course changed my mind, it taught me how to converse in a new language and also something about Swedish culture. I highly recommend this course because of the good way of teaching, checking homeworks and I was very satisfied with it.”
Lillian, A1 Swedish Course
“I chose this course because it seemed to be the best in order to start learning Swedish from the very beginning. I also liked that it let me practice whenever I had time for it. After the first module, I realized that I like the structure and order and the way how the language and knowledge are presented. I would most definitely recommend this course to all of my friends who have come or are planning to come to Sweden and have no knowledge of the language. It is the very basic knowledge one needs when staying or even living in Sweden. I would love also to have a chance and learn the B1 level here. Good luck!”
Ilze, A1 Swedish Course

Frequently Asked Questions
How much will it be in euro/dollar?
The payment will be done in SEK (Swedish crowns) because it is the currency that our company uses. You may check with your bank the exchange rate between your currency and SEK. It can vary from bank to bank. Here in Sweden in everyday life, we usually count that 10 SEK is 1 euro and 9 SEK is 1 US dollar. BUT we highly advise checking your bank for the exact exchange rate.
May I pay for a course if I am outside Sweden?
It usually doesn’t matter where you are. Payments in our solution can be accepted from virtually any country if your bank card belongs to either MasterCard, Visa, or American Express payment systems. So far we haven’t experienced any problems accepting payments both from Europe and Northern and Southern America and even from Asia.
How much time do I need to study per week?
Our students study at least 3 hours per week. The course pace is one module per week and one module usually takes at least 3 hours to watch the lesson videos, work with texts and dialogues, do the exercises and the homework.
I cannot create an account on your platform.
The account is created automatically as soon as a course is purchased. Later, when you would like to purchase the next course, you may just log in to your account and do the purchase, so that the course is connected to your existing account.
How about the pronunciation part? Will we work on it?
Our students usually don’t experience big problems with their pronunciation. This course is not an accent reduction course or training in Swedish. As long as the students didn’t mix words and letters in the words and it goes well to understand what they are saying, that is fine.
We check it by doing a couple of homework assignments during the course when students should make an audio/video recording reading a text or a dialogue. One of them is at the beginning of the course and another one is closer to the end of the course. Usually, even if the students don’t read very well in the beginning, it becomes much better by the end of the course. After these homeworks they get feedback about what sounds and words they should pay attention to.
