About Me
italki teacher since May 9, 2019InterestsTravelFoodScience
My name is Max and I teach Swedish and English here on italki. I was born and raised in Sweden, but I have also studied and worked in the United States and Great Britain respectively, and I'm currently living in Taiwan where I'm studying Mandarin - so I can most definitely relate the struggles of learning a foreign language. I studied philosophy and economics in university and I am now working as a translator, specializing in business translation between Swedish and English.Me as a Teacher
I believe that learning a language should be both fun and engaging, and I will do my best to keep classes uplifting and interesting. Homework and study pace will be set according to your schedule.
Basically what I am saying is that we will customize the classes so that they suit your way of studying, and help you achieve your goals.My lessons & teaching style
We will tailor the classes so they suit the goals that you have for your studies, and focus on the skills that that you want to improve on. I like to use articles as underlying material for discussion during classes, but we will adapt the class to your needs. For instance, to help a couple of my students prepare for the IELTS listening exam I assigned radio shows in various accents for them to listen to and answer questions about, and then we discussed them together in class.5.0

what a great first lesson! exactly what I needed. Max was on time, very friendly, very accurate, his Swedish pronunciation is very clear. All of my mistakes were noted in a Google Doc while my speech wasn't interrupted at all. It's exactly what you expect of a perfect lesson with a community tutor. Tack!

Max has consistently gone out of his way to make my language learning experience easier and more enjoyable. Today we went through 2 songs which Max had transcribed the lyrics for. Thanks so much for all your help, look forward to speaking soon :)

Max is the perfect personality for teaching, he's super kind, patient and understanding, and he explains things in a way that even I could understand. Highly recommend to anyone looking to learn Swedish!

The class is as fun as always and that’s why you can’t even tell when 1 hour has already passed sometimes :) Our third lesson went through some verb conjugation and mainly focus on past tense. I’m happy to see my progress with Max’s teaching!

It was a nice and practical lesson! I liked the Google document to review the grammatical mistakes and that Max gave me lots of constructive feedback. I also liked the tempo of the lecture, time flies. It was good fit for my level as well since my goal was not to repeat small mistake while speaking.
