Open Group Norwegian Courses

Eva qualified in administration and finance, but after securing her first job at a shipping company in her native Norway, she quickly discovered her talent for languages. After working as an English-Norwegian language consultant, Eva pursued her love of acting while working as a translator, developing her knowledge of how languages convey culture and relate to one another.
She started teaching in 2001, initially as a drama teacher, and later transitioning to languages, teaching Norwegian to students of all ages from Beginners to Intermediate levels. Her greatest passion for teaching lies in the joy she feels when her students gain the confidence to begin expressing themselves freely in Norwegian. She considers it a privilege to share not just her native tongue, but her home culture, and she loves guiding her learners to understand and embrace it.
Eva is a person of many talents and hobbies—all of which she loves to discuss in detail in her online group classes. She has traveled extensively, not only while working as a guide and manager aboard Scandinavian Seaways, but also as a freelance actor throughout Europe, as a translator and script consultant in Barcelona, and she currently lives in London. Her assorted résumé includes working as a voice-over artist, an event organizer and language consultant for Disney, and a children’s and young adult writer. It will come as no surprise that Eva is a huge lover of movies and the theater, but she is also passionate about being outdoors, taking every spare opportunity to enjoy some hiking, cycling, and swimming.
By combining her multitude of talents and hobbies, her experience working with and teaching languages, and her passion for helping people to succeed, Eva is one of our most versatile trainers. As much as Eva delights in sharing her culture with you, she wants to hear you discuss your own experiences—in Norwegian, of course—even more. So, expect a highly social experience on this course in which Eva will use online resources to stimulate interesting and fun conversations between you and your international classmates.
