Robert

Robert continues to make Icelandic learning fun, accessible and enjoyable. I have been working with him for several months now and cannot rate him highly enough. He is extraordinarily resourceful and his handle on the language is exquisite. An excellent, passionate mentor who is patient, caring and willing to push you when you need it. Don’t hesitate to book sessions with him!

Robert is just awesome! His explanations are always just so crisp and digestible. For someone who doesn’t necessarily have the longest attention span, I have been kept engaged the whole time we discussed about the dreaded subjunctive today. I don’t know how he does it but he’s really good at making the seemingly complex concepts easy to understand. He’s very passionate about the language and this is apparent in the level of dedication that he affords his students. He’s hands down amazing that I always look forward to my lessons with him. 😉🙌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️♾

Robert guided me through a bit of Icelandic media, helping to clarify the meaning of certain phrases. It was a very fun experience!

Thirty lessons completed and my Icelandic is now vastly improved thanks to Robert! He is an excellent tutor. As always, the lessons are enjoyable and informative and Robert has tonnes of patience. We are currently working on my pronunciation as I often sound like a robot! Thanks to his tuition and guidance, I am certainly improving and becoming more natural. I'm so excited to return to the best country in the world in May armed with everything I have learned! Takk fyrir Robert. ('Teacher's pick' this message Robert 🤣)

Perhaps any teacher can help you learn how to converse in a language, but not everyone has Robert’s outstanding academic and scientific background, which allows him to explain Icelandic in all its subtleties; all while maintaining a very kind and friendly approach. Bravo Robert!

I worked with Robert over the spring as I prepared for the Icelandic Citizenship Language test that I took in late May. Robert set up a three month paced schedule focused on reading, writing, listening and speaking with activities specifically designed to support success on this test. I’m happy to report that I just got my results and I passed! Robert has been a hugely positive influence in my Icelandic language journey. I highly recommend him as a tutor.
