I could tell you a neat story about, how everything led me here… but honestly, I’ve just been busy following my curiosity: Always drawn to people, language, and culture in my studies, work, and everyday life.
Learning isn't about getting things right the first time. It’s about getting back up, laughing a little, trying again and again. And celebrating every little win, and that's what I enjoy helping you with.
I also come with some more formal experience:
I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in European Ethnology (Culture Science) from the University of Copenhagen. Diploma and work as a study mentor for university students with neurological disabilities, occasionally help train AI to sound more naturally Danish, and in the summer: qualitative fieldwork for international researchers and PhD students in Denmark. I also voulenteer weekly, online at Røde Kors, where I speak to broken hearts and lonely souls.
I’ve previously worked as a journalist and once received an award for brand storytelling in a former company.
Jack of All Trades, Master of None
Maybe. But it means I’ve become good at creating a learning space that’s alive: curious, patient, and full of small wins. In my experience, most people don’t struggle with knowing enough Danish. They struggle with the confidence to use the Danish they already have.
What I Hope For My Students:
The confidence to speak Danish in the bakery, to insist the waitress answers you in Danish, to try a new grocery store because maybe, this time, you’ll pass as local.
No matter where your Danish level end up, you will understand and unravel much more of the invisible Danish culture that is much more than hygge and rugbrød.
