À propos de moi
Professeur italki depuis le 14 Nov 2025Sujets d'intérêtÉcritureVoyagesLectureEnvironnement et natureScience
Hi, my name is Lilja, and I am about to finish my PhD in linguistics. I have always been fascinated by grammar and language, and love learning languages that are as different as possible from the ones I know.
I have lived and studied in the UK for 8 years, and by now I speak English at mostly the same level as my native Norwegian. I love travelling, and I have also lived in Argentina, China and Israel, in addition to Norway where I grew up. I have also spent a lot of time in India and Uganda, where I did fieldwork for my research. I love seeing new places, experiencing new cultures, and meeting new people.
Other interests of mine include literature, camping, hiking and nail polish.Moi en tant que professeur
I have experience with studying languages in a lot of different settings, and in my teaching I apply the methods that have worked best for me. I will adapt the lessons to you, your current level, and your goals. I find the immersion method to be the most effective, so I will aim to teach in the target language from the beginning. If you are just starting out, don't worry, I will adapt the language and vocabulary to your level, so that you understand.
My research background is in both grammar and pronounciation, so I can explain the rules and nuances of Norwegian and English to you, and guide your pronounciation. If you want a deeper understanding, I am always happy to go into the details! Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
In the lessons, I will use the target language as much as possible, so that you get used to hearing and speaking it. I will help you create flashcards, which I find to be the most effective way to learn vocabulary. For beginners, we can go over the basics, and I will help you be able to have a short conversation in no time. For more advanced learners, we can pracitice speaking, look at different texts, discuss a book, or focus on grammar, depending on what you need. I can also help with academic writing in English.
I have a lot of experience with children, and so I am happy to teach both children and adults at any level.Mes ressources d'enseignement

Lilja is an outstanding teacher, knowledgable, skilled, deeply embedded in both languages we are using, able to reach into metaphors and different meanings with ease. She has a warm, encouraging, easy manner which helps build confidence as well as skill. I am thoroughly enjoying my classes and would give Lilja my highest recommendation.

I’ve just started having lessons with Lilja, and I can already tell she’s an amazing teacher. She’s always so engaged in the lessons and makes incredibly valuable corrections to my Norwegian.
I really appreciate her help with my Norwegian so far.

I really enjoy learning Norwegian with Lilja! She explains things clearly and it’s obvious she has a lot of linguistic experience. The lessons feel very relaxed and friendly. For me it’s like learning with a friend, which makes it so much easier to speak and practice. I’ve made great progress thanks to her guidance and highly recommend her ❤️

I have been taking Norwegian lessons with Lilja for a month now and can wholeheartedly recommend her!
Lilja is very nice and corrects any mistakes I make instantly in a friendly manner. She is great at explaining grammar rules in an easy way and making sure that I get a lot of speaking practice.
I have taken many Norwegian classes over the last few years, both in group settings at language schools but also private lessons, and am very glad that I found Lilja. I feel like I am making more progress than before since her lessons are actually adapted to my level of Norwegian. Every class is interesting and super fun, I always look forward to them!

I had a trial lesson and really enjoyed it. Lilja is very friendly and easy to talk to. She took the time to understand my learning goals and assess my level of Norwegian. She gave helpful corrections throughout the lesson, along with very useful tips and resources for learning. Even though it was just a trial, I got a lot out of it and would definitely recommend her to others. I look forward to more lessons and improving my Norwegian with her help.
