““Hi! I am Sarah, and with my boyfriend Heiko we’re looking for a tutor for weekly lessons. We have been in Stockholm for 2 years and have tried some lessons, but we want to kick-start our learning together. I am English and Heiko is German.”
Sarah and Heiko came to Sweden to work at Mojang and Spotify respectively. They took lessons together every week for several years and progressed from A1 to B2 level. We focused mainly on reading comprehension, listening comprehension, and spoken interaction. We used the textbooks Rivstart A1+A2 and Rivstart B1+B2.
By the end of Sarah and Heiko’s course, they were in the process of buying a summer house. A few weeks later, they proudly shared that the entire purchase process had taken place entirely in Swedish!
