Level 3 Norwegian Language Class (Online) with Lianna Torres

Join us for Vesterheim’s online Level 3 course in the Norwegian language! We will cover chapters 10-12 of the Sett i gang textbook and will study additional vocabulary, gaining a deeper understanding of grammar. We will also discuss Norwegian culture and current events. We will enjoy small, active group conversations in one-hour weekly Zoom meetings. If you like, you’ll get activities to extend your learning between class meetings. This course runs for 8 Tuesdays, August 4-September 22 (6:00-7:00 pm CT). Lianna Torres is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in Scandinavian Studies at the University of Washington.
