Have you completed a beginner’s course with us, or an equivalent course corresponding to the A1 level? Then sign up for one of our open Danish courses for continuing students in central Copenhagen.

What is required of you?

Our courses are for students who are academically confident and willing to put in the work required to learn the language. You should have completed at least twelve years of schooling and be prepared to do 2–4 hours of homework between each class. Since we initially use English as the language of communication until you’ve learned enough Danish, it is also important that you can both speak and understand English.

How long does it take to learn Danish?

With the Direkte Dansk course concept, we can take you all the way through your Danish language education (DU3, Modules 1–5) in just 48 weeks, provided you complete all eight of our six-week courses. You will then be ready to pass the official PD3 exam (Module 5 at a municipal language center), and will be able to function comfortably in Danish both at work and in your everyday life.

Danish Courses for Intermediates

BA in Danish Language and Communication

I have been teaching Danish to highly educated foreigners since 2000, initially at KISS Language Center and later at Danskbureauet, which I founded in 2006.

In my teaching, I am said to be patient, empathetic, and curious. I have a keen ear for linguistic nuances and error types, which I use to quickly and honestly identify the nearest development potential. I am an expert in my field and remain deeply fascinated by how different people think and learn languages in various ways. I love working with highly motivated individuals who set high goals for their course with me—and achieve them.

Additionally, I have authored the “Direkte Dansk” textbooks*, which follow our unique and highly effective teaching method with a special focus on establishing correct spoken Danish, including clear pronunciation. I also oversee our internal training of new instructors in the method and in pronunciation training in general.

Alongside my work at Danskbureauet, I serve as a task author for the Ministry’s Task Commission for the Studieprøven as well as an external examiner for the Studieprøven. I have also previously served as an examiner and external censor for the Prøve i Dansk 3 (PD3).

*The first two books in the series are published by Praxis.
