Why Norwegian?
Four reasons to take Norwegian classes
Access the World's Wealthiest Country Per Capita
Norway's oil fund makes it one of the richest nations on Earth. Norwegian opens doors in energy, maritime, and sustainability sectors that few foreigners can access.
The Easiest Scandinavian Language
Norwegian sits between Swedish and Danish in pronunciation and grammar, making it the most central Scandinavian language. Learn it, and you effectively unlock all three.
Experience Viking Heritage Firsthand
Old Norse shaped English more than most people realize. Norwegian preserves vocabulary and place names that connect directly to the Viking Age.
Live in Nature's Masterpiece
From fjords to the Northern Lights, Norway's landscape is unmatched. Speaking Norwegian transforms remote hiking trips and coastal village stays from tourist experiences to real life.

PRIVATE NORWEGIAN CLASSES LOS ANGELES
Hallo! Welcome to Strommen. With a Strommen teacher you will speak Norwegian on the first class. A private session is more effective, efficient and convenient than enrolling in a group class. Your Strommen teacher will be a perfect fit for your needs and learning style. We equate 10 hours of private classes with a full semester in a traditional college or group class.
Scheduling is convenient (7 days a week, any time of day), and you can start right away. You can easily reschedule, so you will never miss a class and get left behind. In a private class you do the speaking. There are no other students to hide behind or take up all of the teacher’s time. Your teacher will make sure you progress at your pace, rather than the pace of the best (or worst) student in the class. Strommen further enriches your learning experience with free podcasts, videos, online resources, Strommen Language Meetups around LA, group classes, workshops and even annual immersion trips.
Getting started is easy, just fill out our student application or call and we will help choose the best teacher for you. We decide on a specific teacher based on a number of criteria including a professional gut-feeling. We will make sure it is the perfect match. As a student, your Strommen teacher will be highly dedicated to you. Many of our teachers meet at cafes, at their home office, or anywhere you like. We believe it’s fundamentally wrong to really learn a language from a text book, audio CD, or computer program. It’s time to get away from the computer, grab a coffee and meet your Strommen teacher to have a real conversation!

Norwegian class FAQ
What is the best way to learn Norwegian?
Consistent conversation with a native speaker is the fastest path. Norwegian grammar is relatively simple for English speakers, so the real challenge is pronunciation — the tonal patterns and vowel sounds that don't exist in English. A tutor who grew up speaking Norwegian can correct these in real time, which no app can do. Supplement your lessons with Norwegian TV (NRK has great shows) and podcasts, and you'll make real progress.
How long does it take to learn Norwegian?
The US Foreign Service rates Norwegian as a Category I language — the easiest tier for English speakers. With regular lessons, most students can hold basic conversations within 3 to 4 months and reach a comfortable intermediate level in about a year. The shared Germanic vocabulary gives you a serious head start. Words like 'hus' (house), 'mann' (man), and 'vann' (water) are almost freebies.
Is Norwegian hard for English speakers?
It's actually one of the easier languages for English speakers to learn. The word order is similar, the grammar has fewer complications than German, and a huge chunk of vocabulary is recognizable. The tricky parts are the pitch accent (Norwegian is technically tonal) and some vowel sounds that English doesn't have, like the ø and y. But overall, English speakers tend to pick up Norwegian faster than almost any other foreign language.
Can I take Norwegian classes online?
Yes. All of our Norwegian lessons are available online via video call. Since the Norwegian-speaking population in LA is small, online lessons also let us connect you with the best tutor match regardless of location. You get the same one-on-one, conversation-based approach whether you're in Silver Lake or Santa Clarita.
