I grew up in Sweden and came to the United States after high school to compete in Track and Field.
I spent my teaching career in America teaching physical education, special education, ELA, and ESL. Recently, I worked as a Swedish teacher for a language institute and I currently design a Swedish curriculum.
My passion is exercise and my hobbies are so many; for example, swimming, table tennis, badminton, snowshoeing, traveling, reading, and spending time on the beach with my shih-poo Luna. I love to run and I ran hard almost every day since I was 14. I ran the 800 and 1500 m for the Swedish national team and before that for my college team - Oral Roberts University.

Me as a Teacher
Teaching to me is an art! I teach, I support, I coach, and I care for you! I want to see progress and fast! I also want to see you have fun and gain real confidence in speaking Swedish. My teaching style is professional with attention to details, yet sort of relaxed, and I individualize all lessons for you.
My lessons & teaching style
I teach a structured, yet a whole language approach that is personalized to your needs, goals, personality and style. I always aim for interactive lessons that energize and motivate you.

I enjoyed the lessons with Birger. He tried to know where I am lacking at, ex. grammatic, writing and helped me so well. If I will take another lesson. Always I will prefer Birger. Thank you so much
