Sounds That Don’t Look Like They Sound

At first glance, Norwegian seems familiar. Words resemble English, German, or Dutch. You might think you understand a lot — until someone speaks, and it sounds like a completely different language.

That’s because Norwegian is all about melody, intonation, и compressed sounds. Even native speakers of other Germanic languages get lost when they hear real-life speech. This is exactly why learning Norwegian with a private tutor makes a difference: you need to hear it, repeat it, and adjust your ear — step by step.

Thinking in Patterns, Not Words

Vocabulary isn’t the hardest part. What’s tricky is getting used to the patterns of real speech:
– The tone rises and falls like in singing
– Questions sound like answers
– Words blend together into new rhythms

Our students often say: “I could read it. But I had no idea what they were saying.”

Learning online with a tutor means you don’t just memorize phrases — you develop a feeling for these speech patterns. And that’s the point where comprehension starts to become natural.

Norwegian Isn’t Just One Norwegian

There are two official written forms — Bokmål и Nynorsk — and countless dialects.
In Oslo, Bergen, or Trondheim, people may speak differently, but the logic of communication stays the same.

A good tutor helps you focus on what’s really important:
– Practical vocabulary for your needs
– Clear pronunciation
– Confidence in listening and responding

Start Where You Are — and Go Further Than You Expect

At Levitin Language School, we work with students from all over the world. Some have zero experience with Scandinavian languages. Some speak German, Dutch, or Swedish. Others just love the sound of Norwegian.

No matter where you start, we help you:
– Feel the rhythm of the language
