We will speak Norwegian together, aided by your own language, whether it is English, Italian, French or German. Have fun and do things the Norwegian way whilst learning the language. What do you fancy doing? Go to a cafe, take a walk in the city centre or in the nature, or do you prefer to come to my place or stay at your own home?
Originally an engineer, I chose to follow my passion and became a writer. I have contributed to both Norwegian and English media, among them some of the top Norwegian ones like Aftenposten, VG and Dagsavisen. I have done extensive cruising on my sailing yacht and contributed to two books on sailing. This spring I will be finishing my BA in history. I am also a language freak who speak five languages, now digging into a sixth, which is Mandarin Chinese.

I have known Solfrid for twenty years and I know her very well. I am absolutely sure you will be very pleased with her as your teacher. She is a very friendly and openminded person, and very serious and patient in her work. Solfrid knows by heart some of the challenges you may be facing in learning Norwegian as she learned Italian while living in Italy. Looking at her CV also also gives the impression this is an internationally oriented person. She will have your best interests in mind, and whoever you are with little or no skills in Norwegian you will never regret investing your time and money into working with Solfrid - she is a naturally talented teacher. Good luck! Lykke til!
