The strong relationship with your teacher and carefully planned content are at the heart of our Danish courses, so you as a beginner can quickly and effectively develop your Danish language skills.

Free planning meeting with the right teacher

When you contact us about a Danish language course, our advisors place great emphasis on understanding your needs, your level, and your goals. Based on your wishes and requirements, we suggest the right teacher — and with our many years of experience, we can proudly say we often get it right at the first meeting.

At IC we are also proud of our skilled and versatile teachers, each with their own background and expertise. Chemistry is absolutely crucial to your learning experience, so you will also get a teacher with in-depth knowledge of the Danish that particularly interests you — whether that is preparation for the Danish language tests, pronunciation training, or vocabulary within a specific industry.

The first meeting is always non-binding. At IC we offer this service because it is essential for a successful course that the chemistry works optimally. When you are ready to start, you can begin right away.

Why choose International Communication A/S?

Dorte Matthews founded International Communication A/S in 2005 because she saw a need for more effective, flexible, and targeted language teaching. Since then, IC has helped countless people of all ages with a wide range of individual wishes and needs, and through tailored courses we have helped them realise their language goals and build confidence to speak a foreign language.

At IC we place great value on service, which means you can expect top personal advice, fast response times, and the ability to start your course when it suits you best. We evaluate courses continuously, as your full satisfaction is our goal.

One-to-one or small groups?

One-to-one tuition is the most effective way to learn, as you are the centre of the teacher's attention. This ensures targeted and personal Danish teaching with intensive conversation practice and a focus on pronunciation, so you get the most out of your time and investment.

The trusting relationship in one-to-one tuition creates the most optimal conditions for your motivation and learning.

Intensive learning in small groups

Group tuition is ideal for companies that want to upskill a group of employees' Danish language skills, or for smaller groups of family and friends who want to learn together.

In smaller groups a special dynamic arises where the experience is shared. At the same time it gives the teacher the opportunity to use creative working methods such as group discussions and pair work.

Frequently Asked Questions

When you contact us, you always have the opportunity for personal advice by phone or alternatively by email. At IC we have experienced advisors ready to hear about your exact wishes, interests, challenges and needs. Based on our conversation, we arrange a non-binding meeting with an experienced and competent Danish teacher, where you can have a good talk about the course content and experience for yourself how a personal teacher creates a completely different and trusting relationship. When you are satisfied and motivated, the course can begin.

At IC we always have flexible teaching times that fit into your everyday life. We all have different schedules — some have time in the morning and others prefer lessons later in the day. Therefore you can choose when your teaching takes place.

We always encourage our students to set aside time for homework, as practice promotes your learning. The more you train your pronunciation and vocabulary, the better. However, the amount of homework is something you and your teacher decide together. Our Danish courses are tailored to you, and your learning is at the centre.

Since the beginner Danish course is tailored, you can start when it suits you. The first step is the introductory meeting with a teacher, which we can arrange within just a few days. The course starts immediately after, so you can quickly get started on your language journey.

With our many years of experience at IC, we know that learning a new language is a personal journey, and therefore there is no fixed timeframe for mastering it. But we also know that one-to-one tuition is the most effective method for fast learning, as your development is the centre of the teacher's content and there is no wasted time. As a beginner you can therefore progress quickly with one-to-one tuition.

No — at IC you receive our official course certificate digitally upon completion. This gives you an assessment of your final level based on the internationally recognised CEFR scale (Common European Framework of Reference). The certificate can for example be included with job applications.

What our students say

I really enjoyed working with my teacher online. I felt like I learnt much more — I understand a lot more, which was my goal. I need structure and a little bit of strictness but also with humour. My teacher was pretty good at this.

Jude
Roskilde Festival

It was a very good experience and my teacher helped me a lot to better my reading and enrich my vocabulary. We reviewed the basic grammar rules and I have most of all gained confidence for speaking in Danish.

Julien
NIRAS

I am very satisfied with the course and what I have learned so far. My teacher has been fantastic in how she teaches, explains answers and is very patient and helpful. Overall it is a great course, great teaching, and I look forward to learning more.
