For university and college courses you can estimate Norwegian course cost as one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of about 50 class hours each semester. Language centers and individual Norwegian tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the most budget-friendly Norwegian tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 32 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, ratings and specialization.

📚 What are the requirements for Norwegian language skill level to sign up for a course?
When considering college and learning center classes be prepared to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and testing, so research the details in advance. With personal Norwegian tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.
🔥 Why is Norwegian so difficult and are there ways to learn it in a better way?
One-size-fits-all language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Norwegian. In reality, you can gain basic Norwegian fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand most words, be understood when you talk, shop and place orders in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready and easy way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Norwegian. After gaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Norwegian tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.
🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking Norwegian?
Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Norwegian will demand at least 600 hours of practice. The amount of time can differ a lot depending on your existing level of Norwegian or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Norwegian out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Norwegian classes online.
🤳 Can I pick my own Norwegian instructor?
In language centers, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, certainly! The largest selection of tested Norwegian tutors with video profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.
🗓 Will I be able to fit lessons in my busy schedule?
Colleges usually offer classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools typically have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
