Hi!
I'm Flemming and I'm from Iceland. I'm a language lover and a freelance musician/music teacher. I'm currently living in Denmark where I'm studying classical accordion.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I'm a conversational teacher with a strong emphasis on dialogue. I'm patient and I have a strong sense for when I should take the wheel and help you, and when I should let the student struggle a bit to get through their personal walls. I'm internally passionate and very interested, but externally calm.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My lessons are very personal and dependant on the student's needs. However, they mostly go on through conversation, as we try and build up your confidence in your new language where you can converse and ask for aid, even if it's through very simple terms.
I feel that what most students need in the beginning, be it in music, languages, or anything else, is the confidence to be themselves and to stand strong even if they're struggling to do what they could consider to be "simple things".
I would, through conversation in the language, gain this courage and confidence, while diving as deeply as necessary into the things that need to be improved to progress.
A super interesting way of starting to understand Icelandic. Flemming has a deep interest and understanding languages. His style really helps my brain stay interested. The overwhelming is broken down and made attainable. Super enjoyable.

Flemming is an enthousiastic, competent and kind teacher. Both coaches and explains, in an informal way.

The class was very dynamic, it helped me a lot not only to practice, but also to receive an explanation of the correct pronunciation and the constant repetitions of the words until I became familiar with them.

With this being the first language I am learning it is certainly daunting initially but on meeting Flemming he was nice and had a perfect vibe about how he interacts. I highly recommend taking an introduction lesson with him and learning all he has to teach (which is a lot). I greatly enjoyed diving into the differences in the sounding of letters of the Icelandic alphabet and how they originated which greatly helped with the learning and I'm sure will help with the retention of it. I will be following up with another lesson with Flemming in the future to further grow my understanding of this language. Thank you Flemming for making this initially daunting adventure into an enjoyable one that I am looking forward to continuing!
