OUR TEAM What we're all about
Welcome to Danmark offers online and in-person Danish language lessons for everyone.
Denmark is one of the happiest countries in the world, that with its high standard of living, stable work life balance and overall security in society attracts a high number of well-educated expats and their families. However, Denmark is also one of the toughest countries to settle in. In fact, the yearly Expat Insider Survey Reports of 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, and 2014 all show the same result: Denmark is the top most difficult place in the world to settle in resulting in either expats leaving the country or living an unhappy personal life.
Yes, I know this is all a bit depressing, but the good news is that it isn’t impossible to settle in Denmark and manage to be happy. The Oxford Research Survey 2020 shows that the top 3 reasons that could make expats stay longer are the following:
Better Danish language skills (51%)
Better career opportunities for me (49%)
A better social network (45%)
Our team of teachers are energetic, outgoing, empathetic, independent, structured and curious. It is crucial for us to establish a good relationship with our students so that we can understand their needs, what motivates them and what their learning style is so that we can teach them in the most optimal way. In our teaching there is room for both failure and victory. There is room to be curious and to ask questions. There is room to laugh and play because learning has to be fun. And there is room to be challenged.
Our teaching approach is first and foremost about understanding which learning style works best for the student and what interests him/her by getting to know them . After that, we work out a teaching plan focusing on the student’s needs and interests. If we talk about things that are relevant and of interest to the student, then the student will be motivated and engaged.
We teach with a great deal of commitment because we love what we do which reflects on our students.
MEET THE TEACHERS
Indira
Indira is a dedicated teacher with a diverse background including academia, process facilitation, and the arts. As a practicing artist and lifelong language learner herself, she is deeply curious about people, cultures, and the ways language shapes how we express ourselves and connect to each other. Having lived in multiple countries and learned several languages, she understands firsthand both the challenges and opportunities that come with learning a new language and settling into a new culture.
Indira sees language learning as an organic process—one that evolves differently for everyone, and she intuitively adapts to each student’s unique needs and learning style. She seeks to create a safe and encouraging space where students can explore Danish, making learning both practical and engaging and helping them integrate the language naturally into their daily lives.
