Learn the Nordic languages in classes offered at Scandinavia House! This course continues to expand vocabulary and master grammatical structures, while enhancing conversational abilities, and deepening cultural knowledge of all things Norwegian. Students will get to practice conversations in class which will put grammatical structures to the test, all the while building on listening and speaking skills. There will also be a focus on pronunciation and Norwegian sounds and flow. Students will also have at-home assignments focusing on reading, writing, and grammar.
This course builds upon Norwegian I, or its equivalent.
Outside of class, students are encouraged to watch Norwegian shows, and movies, read simple text, and have Norwegian podcasts on in the background. The required text will be provided via pdf, before the first class.
This hybrid class will be held both in-person and via Zoom; in-person attendance for the first four classes is highly recommended. Classes take place on Wednesdays from 7-9 PM beginning Wednesday, March 20.
No prerequisites required; instructions for remote learning will be emailed upon registration. For questions about language levels, please contact Marie-Therese Bjornerud. Tuition is $675 ($607.50 ASF Members); 20 hours total class time.
