UPCOMING COURSES

Icelandic 1 (A1.1)

Icelandic 1 (A1.1)

Icelandic 1 is a beginner course to teach beginner level vocabulary and grammar and is therefore aimed at people who are complete beginners in Icelandic. In this course students learn how to introduce themselves and others, greet people and to be able to participate in very simple conversations. Students will also be able to express their plans, ask questions and tell basic information from daily life such as what day it is or how much something costs. Students read, write and speak and a lot of emphasis is put on pronounciation and knowing most of the sounds that each letter can produce. 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 office at Bolholt 6 and take a look at our books to see which level suits them best.

Icelandic 2 (A1.2)

Icelandic 2 (A1.2)

In Icelandic 2 there is big emphasis on revising and building on what was studied in Icelandic 1. Verbs like að þurfa (to need) or að finnast (to think/to find), which improve the ability to express yourself, are taught and we continue to add on more important vocabulary. At the end of the course students should be able to tell others about things in their lives, such as their hobbies or favorite places, along with being able to express their basic opinions, longings and needs. Students listen, write, read and speak Icelandic and just like in Icelandic 1 we still put a lot of emphasis on pronounciation and all the sounds that the Icelandic letters can form. 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 office at Bolholt 6 and take a look at our books to see which level suits them best.

Icelandic 3 (A2.1)

Icelandic 3 (A2.1)

In Icelandic 3 the student should hafa the ability to express themselves about basic things in their live so more complex grammar and vocabulary is explored. We continue developing the students ability to express more complicated opinions along with revising what we have already learned in Icelandic 1 and 2. A lot of emphasis is put on past tense and students write weekend-reports about what they did every weekend along with other excersises.

Icelandic 4 (A2.2)

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.

Icelandic 5 (B1.1)

Icelandic 5 (B1.1)

In Icelandic 5 we keep building on everything we have learned before and a lot of emphasis is put on broadening the vocabulary on a more advanced level. Various topics are covered and they are discussed so students get a change to discuss them in a natural enviroment. At this point discussions will be almost completely in Icelandic. We also continue to explore more complex grammar like both plural nouns and adjectives in all four grammatical cases. 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.

Icelandic 6 (B1.2 - B2.1)

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.
