Learning Tips

Here are a few tips to help you learn to speak the Swedish language.

1. Try and spend at least fifteen minutes a day learning Swedish.
2. Spend some time every week writing in Swedish: short conversations, descriptive paragraphs, and/or whatever comes to mind.
3. Make good use of the flashcards in the lessons to help you learn the vocabulary.
4. Go back and review the lessons in this course every once in a while to refresh your memory of the vocabulary and grammar concepts. This is especially important if the lessons are becoming too challenging.
5. When you have a few minutes free time, try thinking in Swedish. You can think about your surroundings, things you plan to do, or just try and remember common phrases.
6. If you have friends who speak Swedish, or who are also learning, try to speak with them in Swedish.
7. Once you have learned some vocabulary, try watching Swedish movies and tv shows. Reading Swedish stories, like the ones included in this course, will solidify your vocabulary and help you become fluent in the language.
