My Swedish online teaching started at Berlitz Europe in 2019. I started teaching Swedish at Berlitz Europe in 2019, after their inhouse teaching course. I just loved it straight away, who knew teaching could be that fun! I love teaching! I have delivered 7500+ lessons since 2019. I work as a substitute teacher at Engelska skolan (50%) + italki (50%) (The English school) engelska.se I previously worked at SFI (Swedish For Immigrants) Aug 2025 - Aug 2026 I teach true beginners to intermediate/advanced. A1-C2 My lessons are up to 99% in Swedish, we only use English when necessary. My teaching material: PDF language material, Text Documents, Images, Videos, Articles, News articles, Quizzes, Homework, Colloquial Swedish, Preparation for a job interview in Sweden, and much more. I will be happy to demonstrate what I can offer you. during a trial lesson. "There's a pattern I see in students who actually become fluent. The one´s that actually can Prata Svenska! It's not that they studied more grammar, or downloaded more apps, or found a "perfect method". The single biggest factor? - They spoke - a lot - even before they felt ready. Most learners avoid this. It's uncomfortable. You might say something wrong. It's easier to do another Duolingo lesson, feel like you're making progress without the awkward part. But fluency only comes from actually talking. The mistakes, the corrections, the moments when you find a way to express something you couldn't before — that's where it happens." Myself and italki exists for exactly this!

I feel so grateful to have met Kenneth. The change with my ability to speak Swedish in just a few lessons is remarkable. One of the best teachers I've ever had. Period.

Om du vill börja prata är Kenneth en jättebra lärare för dig! När jag började var jag på SFI kurs C eftersom jag kunde ganska mycket grammatik, men jag pratade inte så mycket. Vi hade 10 lektioner tillsammans och jag lärde mig mycket. När jag slutade kunde jag göra nationella provet och gå vidare till SFI kurs D. Han är också en trevlig person och flexibel. Jag vill bara säga att det blir mycket bättre om du pratar med honom om vad du vill göra på nästa lektion, så att du får exakt det du vill ha och han också vet vilket material han ska ta med till lektionen. Han är väldigt öppen för det! Till slut, tack så mycket, Kenneth!

Kenneth is absolutely the best teacher! I cannot express enough the impact on my learning. He is smart, kind, extremely knowledgeable and adaptable. I look forward to working with him and see a profound impact on by ability to speak and learn Swedish.

Most have already mentioned how well-prepared and approachable Kenneth is, and I can only agree. What I also like is that he's a great conversationalist, with a broad knowledge of many different topics, ranging from culture, sports and politics, to even classical music. Beyond vocabulary, which he teaches very well, it is always a pleasure having such interesting conversations during our lessons! Tack Kenneth och vi ses!

Kenneth is a great teacher who helped me pass my swedish language exam. He is very thoughtfull and the lessons are always fun. I loved practicing my speaking skills through role play (job interview, debates etc). I also like his little quizzes to fix some grammar points. He has a lot of resources, study materials and ways of teaching which means each study plan and each lecture is tailored to the student. I highly recommend him and wish I had meant him early in my swedish learning journey!

Kenneth is absolutely amazing. What once seemed hard concepts to understand are now coming together. He is engaging, smart, and kind.
