The course for you if you are almost a beginner
This course is for you if you have already taken the first half of our beginner level, a beginner's course at another language school, or if you have previously spoken a little English and would like a brush-up.

On the course, you will further improve your spoken English in everyday situations, for example, when you:

• Meet new people


• Eat at a restaurant


• Go shopping

You will also be able to recognise more words in English texts and conversations, so you will be able to talk about even more topics. For example, you will be able to talk about your family and your holidays and ask other people about their interests. At the same time, you will understand whether something is happening in the present or past.

Even though the primary focus is on speaking English, you will be able to write short texts like cards or emails after the course and we will also study some grammar.

We will study selected parts of the second half of the book, Navigate. This means you will be able to use the Oxford online skills programme that accompanies the book if you want extra practice outside the classroom.

Teaching material
Navigate A1 Beginner Coursebook with DVD and Oxford Online Skills (Oxford University Press) ISBN 9780194566230. You can buy the book before the start of the course or wait until after the first class. You can buy the book online at saxo.com. There is also a limited number of books for sale at Studieskolen's reception. The book includes access to workbook with audio. In addition, the book can be projected onto the whiteboard so you and the other students will typically follow the teaching there as well as looking in your own book.
