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.
Me as a Teacher
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.
My lessons & teaching style
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.

A knowledgable, fast-paced teacher. Interesting historical context and inter-language links make learning interesting and therefore more memorable. I'm looking forward to knowing more.

He was really competent and had some really interesting thoughts on how he related music to language and also generally seemed to be a really cool guy!
