Hello, everyone! My name is Markus. I was born in Oslo, the capital of Norway, but spent a lot of time in the US growing up since I have family in Philadelphia! For the last 5 years, I've been teaching English in Tanzania, Japan, and most recently Spain! I speak Norwegian, English, Spanish, and Japanese. I also hold a TEFL certificate. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, cooking, vlogging, and learning about new languages and cultures. This got me into traveling, cause in my opinion exposing yourself to a new culture and language is the best way to learn! I'm open to teaching anyone over the age of 18, no matter where you're from or your level. Thanks for reading my intro!

I'm feeling to update my thoughts about my Norwegian tutor, Markus, who has been a fantastic help to me. Markus' classes are always interactive and tailored to fit my needs, which has made learning Norwegian both comfortable and effective. Markus is not only highly reliable and organized but also brings a positive and enthusiastic attitude to every session. His professionalism and attention to detail are second to none, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and experienced tutor. After almost 100! classes with he's still standing =) and still up to continue answering to my boring and sometimes stupid questions. During the last 6 months with Markus' help, I have managed to lift my Norsk up to B1/B2 level (from A2) and passed Norskprøve with quite good results (L:B1 R:B2 W:B1 S:B1). Thank you, Markus, for all your hard work and dedication!

Markus is an attentive, encouraging teacher. I was a bit nervous since this was my first time taking a lesson on this platform plus I am a beginner, but the session turned out to be a great experience:) Tusen takk!

Nok en fantastisk time! Vi snakket om mange forskjellige og interessante temaer, bl.a reise, arbeidsliv, politikk, helse og mer. Det er veldig lett å prate med Markus - han er veldig flink til å holde samtalen i gang, men samtidig får jeg snakke mye, og jeg er ikke redd for å si noe feil, spørre ham om vokabular og grammatikk eller komme med mine egne meninger om et visst tema. Og han tilgav meg da jeg innrømte at jeg hadde glemt å gjøre leksene mine 😅 Tusen takk for praten, Markus! Vi ses neste gang 😁

I had my first lesson with Markus, and it was absolutely brilliant! In just 30 minutes, he managed to teach me so much, making everything clear and easy to follow, even though I'm a complete beginner. His teaching style is engaging and motivating, and he was very patient throughout the lesson. I can't wait for more lessons with him and to continue improving my Norwegian. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful first lesson! I was a bit nervous at the beginning since I had never used the platform before and I'm still relatively new to learning the language. Additionally, I had never had a conversation with a native speaker before. However, it turned out to be a great experience! Markus is very positive, enthusiastic, reassuring and attentive. He was incredibly helpful whenever I struggled to find the right words and met me at my current level. His clear dialect made his speech easy to understand. Overall, the lesson was very enjoyable and a positive experience. I’m looking forward to scheduling the next one!
