About Me
italki teacher since Oct 1, 2025InterestsReadingPets & AnimalsFilms & TV SeriesMusicWriting
Hi hi! My name is Dagbjört, and I was born and raised in Iceland. I am a trained teacher and spent 20 years working as a preschool teacher. I am also a published children's book author and currently teach Icelandic as a second language. I speak very good English and fairly good Norwegian, having lived in Norway for two and a half years. I now live in Dalvík, Iceland, with my English husband, our dog Bella Rósa, and our cat Nikita Coco.Me as a Teacher
Learn and practice speaking Icelandic with me! I am patient, warm, and genuinely enjoy working with people. I have a real interest in getting to know my students and building strong, open communication with them. I place great importance on showing respect and empathy, and there is always room for a little humour along the way. My lessons & teaching style
In my teaching, amongst others, I draw on techniques from language coaching, which focus on creating a flexible and personalised learning journey. My aim is to help students build confidence and develop independence as language learners. I support my students in setting achievable goals and finding learning strategies based on their interests, needs, and strengths.
I believe it is essential to create a safe and supportive environment. I understand how daunting it can feel to start speaking a new language.
I emphasise speaking and listening first, and then writing and reading, as well as practising everyday vocabulary, all carefully adapted to each student’s level, abilities, and preferences.My teaching material

mér finnst gaman at tala saman við þig og það er gagnlegt að æfa að hlusta og tala saman þannig (ég vona að þú getur skilið þetta!)

I have really enjoyed lessons with Dagbjört. She is patient and explains things at a level I can understand, while staying in Icelandic.
