Welcome to the course 

Beginner Studies in Swedish for International Students II

at Dalarna University!

This course is a continuation of the Course GSS2X7 Beginner studies in Swedish for International Students I. The course is based in Falun with most of your lessons taking place on campus. Recorded material (Mini-lectures) will also be offered via our learning platform for students to watch between the seminars. 

During this course you will have the opportunity to develop your basic skills in Swedish and develop your perceptual and productive skills in the language in simple, predictable situations.  You will study, amongst other things:

• basic principles of pronunciation in Swedish
• basic Swedish vocabulary 
• Swedish elementary grammar structure

 Through a variety of perceptual, productive exercises and interactive classrooms activities the student continuously practices grammar as well as his or her communicative skills.

We see the group work as an important resource in all course activities, made evident by the feedback of previous participants of the course who have highlighted the value of working in groups around interactive exercises as well as around texts, Swedish vocabulary and grammar.

The work around language does not stay in the classroom though. We therefore hope that you also take the chance to actively try using the language in your meetings with Swedish speakers outside the school environment.

Here you will find a preliminary schedule and link to the course syllabus and to the course literature list.
