Learn Swedish Online – Personalized Classes & Exam Preparation

“I met Thea during one of the LearnSwedishLab’s YKI webinars and I really liked how Thea encouraged participants and together made a list of keywords to help us in the start to prepare an answer to an YKI style question. Later when I wanted to study with an YKI tutor from LearnSwedishLab, I asked which teachers had availability and luckily for me Thea was available. I already knew I liked her attitude and her teaching method and I was not disappointed. Thea was a great match for me and I am so happy to say that with her guidance two times a week for a few weeks, I passed my YKI test on the first try! We first revised some basic things from Rivstart and then practiced the speaking parts of the exam using examples from the Gimara book. When you are already at A2 level it is very much possible to pass your YKI test with structured speaking practice sessions with Thea. I recommend LearnSwedishLab because they are polyglots themselves with a deep understanding of the Swedish language and culture and different exams and exam structures. They can give students a head start by practicing answering relevant questions under timed conditions with relevant vocabulary and exam structure.“

““Yasmina’s very helpful. I tried with Preply private tutor and tried with Vietnamese teacher. I was just wasting my time and my money. She’s really on point and gives actionable advice. I’d recommend anyone who’s unsure if they would pass and needs someone who really helps. You could pass with her help. I was not fully confident that I would pass within 2 weeks, but it was a game-changer that I took private lessons with her.””

“8 years story – shrunk into 20 days, and with just 15 hours of effective prep, the end result was success. I reached out to the team; Iskra then stepped in with a private intro call. It was only 20 days until the exam (which also included some Christmas and New Year breaks). We managed 15 hours of private classes, and her clear pinpointing of where I needed to improve, along with the materials, helped me prepare. I can honestly say, Iskra’s materials and the guide tool, which I learned, were way easier and simpler – simple and alternate words to be used, etc. Her cool way of teaching (just breathe in, breathe out, no-stress policy) gave me additional motivation.
I took the exam – the same topics we prepared appeared, and good luck followed me. The story ended with good news: I passed and immediately applied for citizenship. Thanks, Iskra & Learn Swedish Lab!”

“I am pleased to share that I have cleared the Yki test (Intermediate level). A big thanks goes to Teacher Iskra (LearnSwedishLab), for her guidance and the numerous intense sessions. I took her Yki-prep course, targeted towards speaking and writing. The course has been instrumental in helping me understand various grammatical idiosyncrasies, how to answer certain questions, how to coherently form opinions.”

“Tack för att ni stöttade mig att uppnå mina mål på Learn Swedish Lab. Med det stora stödet från Learn Swedish Lab kunde jag klara mina språkprov. Jag är en läkare från ett land utanför EU, och uppgiften var att klara alla delar av språktestet för att få Valviras läkarlicens. Jag lyckades med mitt prov, klarade språktestet, fick min läkarlicens och fick även jobb på ett sjukhus som läkare. Tack Learn Swedish Lab!”

“I attended YKI Preparation course by Swedish Lab and I strongly recommend it to Swedish learners. My instructor (Iskra) was always very kind to tolerate my mistakes and provided valuable feedback to improve my understanding. I have been trying to self-learn Swedish for past couple of years and it was turning very difficult due to very busy work life. I used several AI apps but I was failing to understand the grammer rules and pronounciation. My passing of the YKI exam is a credit to Swedish Lab. Thank you Iskra/Swedish Lab! :).”

“I’d like to say thank you to LearnSwedishLab and especially to my teacher Iskra for helping me with YKI exam. I spent 1.5 years on different Swedish courses, which were not so efficient and personalized. And after these courses I felt unprepared for the exam. But after 20 hours of my online classes with Iskra I felt a positive change – my understanding of oral Swedish improved as well as my writing skills. And my vocabulary was enriched by plenty of new words.
Iskra gave me all the technical skills needed for mastering the exam. I think it is really important not to go too deep into grammar, but instead focus on the topics which are relevant for the YKI test. After my courses with Iskra I passed the exam with the1st attempt: 3 out of 4 exam parts passed. To be honest, I did not expect such an impressive result! I will highly recommend Iskra to the students in Finland, especially to those who do not have enough time for YKI preparation.”
