I'm an engineer specialized in biophysics and its applications in medical research. What I enjoy most in life is learning—whether it's through reading, documentaries, meaningful conversations, sports, traveling, volunteering, or work. After earning my master's degree, I've relocated to Cairo, Egypt, where I'm experiencing firsthand what it's like to settle in a new country.
I'm passionate about social justice and try to engage with the world in a way that contributes to a fairer, more inclusive future for everyone.
Me as a Teacher
I'm a patient and supportive teacher who understands what it’s like to learn a new language—I’ve studied several myself. That experience helps me explain things clearly, share useful learning tips, and understand where students might get stuck. I always adapt my lessons to your pace, goals, and learning style.
I’ve taught both language and science as a substitute teacher and worked with teenagers in low-income areas to help them improve their grades and build confidence. I bring that same supportive approach to every lesson.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons focus on building strong oral communication skills. I teach grammar and vocabulary through natural conversation, so you can start speaking and understanding Swedish in real-life situations.
I always adapt to each student’s goals and preferences—if you’d like more structured exercises, written materials, or listening practice, I’m happy to provide that. I can also record audio files to support your listening comprehension outside of class.
For vocabulary building, I strongly recommend using flashcards or spaced repetition apps. During lessons, I send new words, phrases, and corrections in the chat, so that you can access them later.

Our speaking lessons are very helpful. Johanna gives her explanations when I have questions or difficulties saying something specific. Also, when I need to prepare myself to talk about specific topics, we dedicate our time during the sessions to enhancing my vocabulary and speaking skills in this particular area. It is very helpful and practical, as well as the usual speaking lessons where we could speak and figure out some grammar questions as well on the way. Overall, thank you!

Johanna is quick with translations, considers nuances in meaning but above all has a curiosity and sense for adventure in life which makes conversation easy and fun. Johanna speaks clearly which helps me a lot at this point. I believe I can advance quickly now with Johanna .

Jag tycker att läraren är väldigt informativ och engagerande. Hon förklarar tydligt på klar svenska och har mycket energi, vilket gör lektionerna roliga och intressanta. Det är lätt att hänga med och jag känner verkligen att jag lär mig mycket.

I am very thankful for the many lessons I’ve had with Johanna, and I can’t recommend her enough. Learning Swedish to a high level takes hundreds of hours of speaking, listening, and feedback, so I needed a patient, committed teacher for the long term. Regular lessons with Johanna on italki have been a real game changer for my Swedish. She is highly knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and has helped me with everything: everyday conversation, understanding Swedish culture, grammar, and more advanced academic language as I prepare for university studies in Swedish. She is reliable and clearly invested in my progress. Whether you need targeted help with specific questions or a teacher who will support you over the long term, I strongly recommend Johanna.
