Hei! I’m Elisabeth, I am a native speaking Norwegian tutor from Kristiansand. I specialize in intensive, structured Norwegian courses for levels A1–B2—especially for students who want fast progress and a clear plan.
Best for you if you:
• are preparing for Norskprøven (A1–B2)
• are moving to Norway or need Norwegian for work
• want grammar + speaking combined (not just “conversation”)
I’ve studied 5 languages, so I teach in a practical way that makes patterns stick. Tell me your goal + timeline, and I’ll recommend the right intensive course (full or mini). Vi snakkes!Me as a Teacher
I have lived in the United States for 20 years and teach many American students who work in Norwegian companies, as well as students from all over the world. I offer intensive Norwegian courses for adult learners, with both mini-intensive and full-intensive options focused on clear structure and measurable progress.
I adapt my teaching to each student’s level and learning preferences, whether you are a beginner or more advanced.. In my intensive courses, I typically use Sett i gang I and II, combined with online exercises, quizzes, and exam-style tasks, and I adjust materials as needed. My lessons & teaching style
I am currently accepting new students for intensive Norwegian courses at levels A1, A2, and B1. You can choose between a mini-intensive course (22 hours) or a full-intensive course (45 hours). Most students study between 1.5 and 3 hours per week.
My goal is to help you build fluency and confidence while gaining insight into Norwegian language and culture. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message. I would be happy to hear from you. Vi sees!My teaching material

Does an excellent job of correcting pronunciation errors and adding in supporting vocabulary. Gives great details about how cadence works between different languages.

Elisabeth is a fantastic teacher! She explains the concepts very clearly and systematically and is great at providing useful examples to help further my knowledge. I would definitely recommend her to any student wanting to learn Norwegian at any level!

The teacher cancelled the lesson on me, saying that she doesn't have room for any new individual students. For some reason, italki did not stop me from booking with her.. and I feel that a change needs to be made to the italki system to more clearly display teachers' real availabilities. now I am waiting for a refund.

Det var en veldig inspirerende lekse. Elisabeth hjalp meg med flere tips til et jobbintervju på norsk. Takk for det!
