UPCOMING COURSES

Icelandic Speaking Course

Icelandic pronunciation and the main points about conversation structure in real practical situations will be covered in this course. The best way to learn a new language is to find opportunities in daily communication to speak Icelandic. The course will be taught in Icelandic and students need to be prepared to speak Icelandic. Students will learn methods to increase vocabulary and build upon their basic knowledge to start being able to converse with others in Icelandic. These methods include preparation with the teacher in class and at home. Students will also go to various places with the teacher to practise talking Icelandic with Icelanders. At the end of the course students should have developed both, skills to be able to communicate in Icelandic and methods to be able to increase their vocabulary in daily life outside the classroom.

Icelandic 4 for Spanish and Portuguese speakers (A2.2)

En el nivel 4 se pone mucho énfasis en los debates y en la capacidad tanto de expresar sus opiniones como de proporcionar argumentos para dichas opiniones. Los estudiantes discuten los pros y los contras de varios temas y expresan sus opiniones y argumentos. Los textos del libro tratan sobre cosas prácticas como ir al banco, pero también tienen como objetivo introducir al estudiante elementos importantes de la cultura islandesa como proverbios, poemas y cuentos islandeses. La gramática del curso pone mucho énfasis en los cuatro casos gramaticales islandeses, como saber declinar los tipos de sustantivos más comunes y saber cuándo usar cada caso. El curso también sigue repasando lo estudiado en cursos anteriores. Al final del curso, hay una prueba para repasar y practicar todo lo estudiado en el curso. Un libro está incluido en el curso. Si un estudiante no está seguro de qué nivel debe asistir, puede venir a nuestras oficinas en Bolholt 6 y echar un vistazo a nuestros libros para ver qué nivel se adapta mejor a sus necesidades.

Icelandic 6 (B1.2 - B2.1)

In Icelandic 6 there is no textbook and therefore it is assumed students already know most of the Icelandic grammar and have enough vocabulary to be able to express themselves to some extent about most topics in Icelandic. In Icelandic 6 students choose their own reading material, such as books, stories or news, and then they introduce the material they read to the class. The material is then discussed in a group setting along with discussing the new vocabulary surrounding the material. Icelandic 6 is therefore for students who have already learned most of the grammar but want to practise and use their Icelandic along with broadening their vocabulary.

Icelandic 4 (A2.2)

In Icelandic 4 a lot of emphasis is put on discussions and the ability to both express your opinions but also provide arguments for said opinions. Students discuss the pros and cons for various topics and express their opinions and arguments. The texts in the book are about practical things like going to the bank or a sale but also aim towards introducing the student to Icelandic culture like proverbs, poems and the Icelandic sagas. The grammar in the course puts a lot of emphasis on the four Icelandic grammatical cases and knowing how to decline the most common types of nouns and knowing when to use each case. The course also keeps revising what was studied in previous courses. At the end of the course, there is a test to revise and practise everything studied in the course. A book is included in the course. If a student is unsure which level they should attend they can come to our offices at Bolholt 6 and take a look at our books to see which level suits them best.
